What is Dialogue?
I'd propose this defnition of a dialogue.
Voicing -- explaining, sharing, your thoughts.
Listening -- hearing what others have to say on the topic.
Reflecting -- thinking through others point of view
Challenging -- Discussion the ideas and pros and cons
What do you think of as a dialogue? What did I miss?
Weaving a Social Cloth
Listening is a lost art. Today we are hungry to be heard. We like to talk, tweet, blog a lot. But listening and exploring questions that matter makes a difference.
Think about it. We had 4 women at a table. They each talked on what energized them.. Wendy, the hippie chick, Ann where boundaries are gone, Sandy, empowering others and creating something new, and Trudie working from a challenge into energy. The conversation was great. It was like weaving a new cloth.. each conversation being one thread .. a cloth that will never be woven again.
Interesting how listening does that. Do you do that with your family, with your team, with those in your friend group, or your connections.
When was the last time you listened and reflected? What cloth did you weave?
Did you know? Featured in WITI Keynote Tomorrow -- Social Media Statistics!
In preparing for this week's WITI keynote, I found some great factoids!
First, over 1/5th of the world’s population are online - that's over 1.2B people. The number of text messages sent and received every day exceeds the total population of the planet! WOW!
If MySpace were a country, it would be the 11th largest population.
45% of Facebook’s audience is now 26 or older, with women over 55 the fastest growing group!
Between February 2008 and May 2009, the Twitter community grew by over 4,000% to an estimated 20 million+ users. In December 2008, over 14 billion web videos were viewed by 150 million online Americans, an increase of 13% over November ‘08!
People with more than twenty connections on LinkedIn are thirty-four times more likely to be approached with a job opportunity than people with less than five.
All 500 of the Fortune 500 are represented in LinkedIn. In fact, 499 of them are represented by director-level and above employees!
