AVAILABLE PRESENTATIONS
Be Bold, Not Bossy
Leading with Humility, Tact and Assertiveness to Rock Your Career
greyzone’s concept of The Boldness Barometer is explored in depth, understanding what it means to be too passive vs. too aggressive. From the way we communicate, to our body language to our overall actions, everything we’re doing (or not doing) is building our brand. Too often we fail to engage for fear of coming on too strong. Balance on the barometer can be found when we blend Humility, Tact and Assertiveness. Participants will learn actionable steps to confidently manage their career and position themselves for success in their organizations. You will learn:
- How to find balance on The Boldness Barometer
- Understand how Passive Language dilutes our brand
- Gain powerful tips on Managing Up and leading with Assertiveness
- Explore negotiation tactics
Communicating with Intent
Your Words, Your Outcomes
When we’re not careful with our word choices, tone and control of our story, we can find ourselves in a field peppered with communication landmines. Whether it’s making assumptions, oversharing with too much backstory, or believing that a wish will be understood as an ask, we are often confounded by the lack of positive results from our communications. Bringing awareness to the importance of word choice, tone and controlling our stories all go a long way to getting the outcomes we desire: be that a promotion, an overseas assignment or a coveted project. Key takeaways include:
- How to edit emails and verbal communication to limit apologies
- Test your assumptions
- Understand how backstory waters down your ask
- Having the courage to ask leads to credibility
- Power tips for outstanding communication
