When you elevate your message, you can persuade and engage audiences, fellow C-Suite members, clients, customers or colleagues to achieve a positive Return on Influence
Your ability to influence the thinking of others is an incredibly valuable skill.
As a speaker your ability to engage and inspire an audience is most often achieved through storytelling. When you are able to weave your stories effortlessly through your talk, your ability to move an audience to action is much higher – and when audiences act, your success rate skyrockets.
As an organizational leader, it is imperative that you are able to eloquently express your vision. Often the facts alone are not enough to persuade others to embrace change or come alongside your idea. Often you need to elevate your message by sharing a portion of your own identity to influence others in a positive way.
The answer to making sure your ideas are heard in conversation is NOT to talk louder! Through one-on-one or small group coaching, Susan will assist you in understanding how to elevate your message so you are not only heard but your influence is broader because your words are remembered.
