There is no better time for leaders to level up their communication skills than now. Leaders need to recognise the importance of early and credible communication to ensure that their people have a valid source of truth.
In this episode of the Business Chat Podcast, I speak with Dr. Neryl East, Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) and an expert in media, marketing, and influential communication.
Neryl talks about how leaders can communicate in “spotlight situations” - when the pressure is on, the stakes are high, and the outcome really matters.
When leaders are faced with difficult issues, they can present themselves as authentic, transparent, and have a positive desire to get their message across.
Leadership communication is not about being glib and polished, it’s about being prepared to be a better communicator. By having credible communication, leaders learn how to build trust and heighten connection with the people they lead.
