"100 Ways for Smart People to Communicate Clearly" by Yuriko Fukaya

Good morning!
Today, I'd like to introduce a how-to book on the basics of communication,
"How to Convey".

Conveying → Getting Across
It introduces 100 perspectives focused on this, and while it's textbook-like in content, it doesn't feel like a textbook.
It's a book that speaks to you gently.

"100 Ways for Smart People to Communicate Clearly" by Yuriko Fukaya

The 100 perspectives serve as thetable of contentsitself, and
this is amazing!

The Amazon page lists all 100 perspectives as they are.
It reveals so much of the know-how that you might wonder, "Is this enough on its own?"

The book explains many concrete examples.

Everything should be from the other person's perspective!

Communicating well means having good communication.
The basic rule is to think from the other person's perspective.

What the other person expects and what they want to hearshould be grasped first.
The other person's thinking patternshould be used to adjust the order of what you convey.

For example, it is important to quickly sense whether the other person is:
・ Someone who wants to grasp the big picture first
・ Someone who is concerned with the details

I am the type of person who cannot understand things unless I grasp them structurally from the big picture, but there are certainly people who are overly focused on details.
I want to have the flexibility to change the order of my speech to match the other person (laughs).

Clarity means being easy to visualize.

In a clear way of communicating,
the image you want to convey is vividly floating in the other person's mind.

• Concrete numbers

• Proper nouns

• Concrete examples (e.g., "for example," "in other words")

• Break it down into steps to convey it

• Use words the other person knows

And so on, there is plenty of room for improvement

Think from the higher-level objective

In the first place, what is the purpose of communicating?
It is easy to forget the higher-level objective

Therefore, think about the purpose before you communicate

In many cases, you don't just want them to understand and be done with it; you want to go as far as encouraging
desirable actions beyond that

For the other party to take action, both of the following are necessary:
・ emotional engagement (emotions, senses, empathy)
・ a sense of conviction (reason, logic, sense of benefit)

In addition, I realistically recreate scenes where good communication is taking place from multiple perspectives, such as how to use charts and diagrams, presentation techniques, and email etiquette.

I deeply feel that this book itself serves as a model for how to communicate well
