How you exemplify your communication skills will speak to your professional experience and professional value. DDI advertises that their leaders can help their client's leaders build partnerships, enhance their communication skills, equip them with better emotional intelligence essentials, and better manage their relationships. "Leaders recognize the role of emotional intelligence as they develop foundational skills that apply to the wide range of workplace situations they handle. Conduct conversations that achieve the intended business goals. Communicate and respond in ways that meet the unique personal needs of team members and others. Recognize and react to emotions present in work situations. Use a technique to provide meaningful, supportive feedback." Consider how your communication skills would help your clients be better leaders, from practicing empathy and active listening to adapting your communication style to others.

"I will rate myself an 8.5 because I consider myself a strong communicator. It is the foundation of all success in business. I always strive to be a better communicator, so I leave the rest of the scale as an aspirational measure."
