The SLC+C Tool will help you build your communication skills and help ensure that your employees trust that you understand them and where they are coming from. This will also help you connect with them.

Using the SLC+C Tool

The top section of this tool shows the steps that form the SLC+C acronym: Stop, Listen, Confirm, and Collaborate. The bottom section shows each step in more depth, giving suggestions on how to do each step. Also, a reminder that the fourth step, collaborate, is not used all the time. It should only be used when the other person asks for your help.
