 "Developing excellent communication skills is absolutely essential to effective leadership. The leader must be able to share knowledge and ideas to transmit a sense of urgency and enthusiasm to others. If a leader can't get a message across clearly and motivate others to act on it, then having a message doesn't even matter."
- Gilbert Amelio, former President and CEO of National Semiconductor Corp

Interpretation of quote:
Effective leaders must not only communicate information and ideas properly but also foster in their teams a feeling of urgency and passion. It will align team members towards similar goals and prevent errors, especially in fast-paced circumstances. Improved communication skills give clarity and direction, decreasing misunderstandings and enhancing goal awareness. This improves workflow productivity and overall team effectiveness.
