In this present day economy, we need a competitive edge. And that edge can come through what I call "committed speaking and listening".
In brief, what I share are some tools of language that bring about different ways of being, acting, and producing. For example: If I say "let's get together over lunch and discuss the possibilities for our working together on a project that may benefit both of us", and your listener says, perhaps, "Yeah that sounds good", and that is ALL that gets said, then while we have invented some possibility in that speaking, there is something missing. What is missing is ACTION.
What is present is a conversation that may or may not lead to the future action of actually sitting down at a lunch table and getting into a conversation for that possibility, but there is no actual commitment to DO that anytime soon. So what happens? We have no clue. Whether or not a meeting takes place seems left to chance or fate somehow.
What shifts this conversation from possibility to action? Consider this: After your listener has said, "Yeah, that sounds good," YOU say, "Good. How about tomorrow at 1 PM at The Four Seasons?" That is a clear REQUEST for the creation of a future that was not going to happen anyway. And the response comes, "Cannot do it tomorrow, but Friday will work" and you say (if your calendar is clear), "Done". See you there at 1 PM Friday. Now you have a designed future that you are both committed to. That ... requesting, and promising, is ACTION (language or speech acts) that creates a future ... and the promises made are in fact ACTIONS, and NOT merely "talking about", or speculations leading nowhere, or mere opinions.
