One key to communication vision is frequency. Often as leaders, we think if we our people something once... they'll get it. If we tell them something twice, they'll for sure understand the concept. And if they aren't acting out the vision after we've told them three times, they must be lazy or not buy in to what we're telling them. The truth is, however, they just haven't heard it yet.
This quote comes from a recent Signal vs. Noise post, but Scott McClellan reposted it at the Colide Magazine blog. It's just a great quote from political consultant Frank Luntz:
“There’s a simple rule: You say it again, and you say it again, and you say it again, and you say it again, and you say it again, and then again and again and again and again, and about the time that you’re absolutely sick of saying it is about the time that your target audience has heard it for the first time.”
There's no better way to propogate your vision for your church than to repeat it. Often. Until you're blue in the face.
Don't be obnoxious, but do work your main points into your messages, your meetings, and your one-on-one conversations.
Repetition is key.
