Key Thought
You are good enough and perfect just as you are.
3 steps for good communication
1. Know your audience – where are they in their life, what do they care about, what is their relationship to risk, introverted vs extravert?
2. Use the power of the pause – Gap of disparity where we think we are pausing longer than we are. Recording the speech before the communication helps to allow for self-reflection.
3. Allow others to be seen and heard by creating spaces for them to communicate and be themselves
