Together, your voice, your physicality, and your words communicate a message — make sure it’s the one you want.

Do you feel that you and your ideas are visible and recognized? Do you think you’re approachable but find that your team avoids giving you feedback? Do you have a hard time matching your tone to your intent? Posture, body language, tone of voice and presence are all communication tools that we often don’t consider, but they’re vital and controllable.

Whether your audience is one person or an entire organization, effective communication is a nuanced process. Understanding the many languages of leadership helps you avoid miscommunication and manage more effectively.

We have found that bringing in tools from performance helps you get in touch with your own personal approach to leading in ways that can surprise you, allowing you to learn new things.
