I’ve just finished reading a post by John Maxwell asking for ideas for his next book project.

I very much admire John’s leadership abilities and the way he teaches.  Many of his books grace my shelves and they are often the first ones I go to when developing leaders within my organisation.

Sometimes however, even the best communicators can send mixed messages.  At the end of his post (not on his website, but using a feed reader) this is what we see…

Hmmm, does that mean I need to seek permission, do does it mean permission is automatically granted (on all posts because both lines appear on all!)

It got me thinking and questioning.

How can leaders avoid miscommunication in a world of email, blogs and 140 character messages?

Note to self:  Think deeply about this and maybe do a short series on it?
