The Readback
Minor miscommunications and a lack of clarity can quickly snowball into big problems. Jocko Willink and Carlos Mendez will teach you how to utilize Readback, an effective communication tool that enables you to catch, communicate, and correct your mistakes so your team can reach its fullest potential.
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Even slight miscommunications can result in disaster because what we say is not always what other people hear, and what we hear is not always what other people intend to say.

By utilizing The Readback effectively, you can set yourself and your team up for success. Whether you’re giving information or receiving information, this tool allows you to catch alignment errors before they happen and prevent costly resources from being put toward the wrong priorities.
