045 - Influence through concise communication

Cultural Communication Confidence

Influencing through concise communication is a topic which comes up time and time again with my clients.

In our coaching conversations, they tell me they want to sound professional, clear, to the point, and like a leader, so people listen and act.

However they worry they end up speaking too much, or only think afterwards how they could have said it better, or see others who influence effectively, making it look so easy and natural.

So is communicating concisely a natural-born talent which only some people have?

I am a great believer that we all have the ability to increase our influence and drive impact through our words. Every person can learn this skill, with intentionality, planning and practice.

What you will learn in this episode:

• Setting your intention to influence
• Exploring the motivations of others
• Identifying your vision of success
• What people need to hear vs. want to hear
• Creating your key idea
• The next step
