SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
Communication skills can influence how your ideas, leadership, value, and potential are perceived at work. But being effective isn't about being the loudest person in the room it's about communicating with clarity, confidence, self-awareness, and influence.
In this episode of Coaching In Session, Michael Rearden sits down with executive presence coach Aletta Rochat to explore what makes communication successful and why strong communication can directly impact professional growth and career advancement.
