Self-Regulation Is A Communication Skill

Some people bring urgency into every conversation. It shows up in their speed, tone, and body language. Their activated nervous system does the talking.

It means being regulated enough to think clearly, listen well, and respond intentionally.

In leadership, calm is contagious.
So is chaos.
