The question is, how can you make your words matter and influence the outcome? How can you really connect with others? “Connecting is the ability to identify with people and relate to them in a way that increases your influence with them,” says leadership expert John C. Maxwell. “And the ability to communicate and connect with others is a major determining factor in reaching your potential. To be successful, you must work with others.
