Effective Communication in a Polygamous Family

Communication lies at the core of every aspect of our lives within a polygamous family structure. In this complex familial dynamic, inadequate communication poses significant challenges, contributing to diminished morale, subpar performance, and increased turnover among family members. Often, unintentional messages lead to misunderstandings. To thrive in a polygamous family setting, mastering the art of effective communication becomes crucial.

Throughout my career in international family relationships also growing in polygamy environment  and families. I’ve witnessed how communication can either foster or impede connections within the family unit, profoundly influencing teams and overarching family goals. Poor communication within a family can create stress and hardships for individual family members.

Leveraging my background in languages and navigating family relationships, I’ve recognized the paramount importance of words. Within the family context, individuals can reap rewards or face consequences based on their communication skills. Distortions often occur when family members believe they’ve conveyed one message, while the family receives an entirely different one. Over the past decade, as a trainer in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, I’ve delved into the subtleties of non-verbal communication between family members and groups. Therefore, understanding the secrets of communication becomes imperative for all members of a polygamous family.
