Happy International Podcast Day! This has been an exciting few weeks celebrating my 100th episode, sharing the recent podcast mini-series about global leadership communication, and launching a new live training, Become a Global Leader.
And to end the celebrations, I decided to create a very different episode for you today. Rather than me or a guest expert sharing their ideas, strategies and tips, I asked you what you wanted to know about improving your leadership communication, speaking like a leader and developing your cultural intelligence.
I received many great questions and I chose this fantastic one from Lynne in Japan as this is something I am often asked about: What are the key ingredients to achieving success across cultures?

Understand your behavioural preferences and how they influence your motivations and drivers for communication and interaction. Look with fresh eyes. Press the pause button. Get curious and ask questions. See similarities and differences, not ‘right’ and ‘wrong’. Go deeper than awareness with cultural intelligence. CQ Strategy: plan what you will do differently. CQ Action: choose where you will adapt to create the connection.If you missed the free live training last week, Become a Global Leader, message me on LinkedIn with the word ‘Become’ and I’ll send the replay to you- it’s available until 4th October 2024 only.

Summer season part 5 of 5: Body language and your IMPACT.
In this summer series of LinkedIn live video re-runs, enjoy the most popular, most viewed topics to support you to keep growing and learning. I'll be back soon with new episodes!
Body language and your IMPACT
How often do you notice others’ body language? How aware are you of your own non-verbal communication?
When speaking, we tend to plan what we will say, the content, and the actual words we will use.
However, if we don’t pay attention to our non-verbal communication, then we are missing key opportunities to engage and connect with people, build our presence and professional impression.
In this week’s re-run of this LinkedIn Live, I share my IMPACT model for you to become more aware of the full range of your non-verbal communication, including your body language and how this can enhance your leadership presence and visibility.

Strategies to deal with Passive Aggressive Behaviour
Have you experienced passive aggressive behaviour from somebody in the past?
Maybe they don't acknowledge your contribution or ideas, won’t reply to your emails or support you in meetings.
They may even not turn up to your meetings or appear to take credit for your work. However, when you ask, "Is everything OK?", they smile and reply, "Fine!" It's like you can't seem to have a genuine conversation.
Has this happened to you?
In this live I am going to share the strategies to deal with passive aggressive behaviour to stop the frustrations and blocks. So you can create more positive interactions and start moving forward.

Trust yourself to speak: learnings from my journey
Do you trust yourself to speak?
I am going to share openly here that I realised a few months ago I was not fully and completely trusting myself. I was living in my speaking and communication comfort zone.
Podcasts, videos, interviewing, giving talks with presentations, all with preparation and planning.
However, speaking fully spontaneously and allowing myself to speak freely did not happen often.
That is one of the reasons why I decided to start these lives to build my self-trust. That’s when I decided nothing was stopping me.
In this week’s live I share with you my learnings and how to build your own self-trust so you can speak up confidently in your own situations that you feel uncomfortable in today. Allow yourself the freedom to speak and achieve your goals.

Develop your confidence for presenting
Do you feel stressed, under pressure and under-confident when you need to present or speak in public?
Maybe you over-plan, over-think and end up speaking too much or not clearly enough?
This may be true for you if you are a global professional who is presenting in your second language, and/ or feel the pressure to speak well in front of your team, senior management or customers.
In this Live I share practical strategies for you to build your confidence as you prepare for your next public speaking event or presentation.
So you can feel more relaxed and calm, and trust yourself to speak up and share your voice.
