Insight20 Speaking #3

In celebration of our 20th anniversary, we’re sharing the expertise we’ve gleaned over 20+ years and giving you these 20 insights for modeling excellent listening, speaking, and narrative leadership. 

Are you establishing trust early on?

No one will stick around to see how competent you are if they don’t first trust you. Share a sincere compliment with your audience. Share a story that offers a glimpse into why you’re excited and grateful to be there, and what the audience will gain by listening to you.
