Description

📢 DOORS OPEN: Speak Like a Senior Leader™ gives you the system to become a crisp, clear, confident communicator and be handed dream opportunities before you ever ask for them. Secure your spot: https://speaklikeaseniorleader.com

A key influence skill of executive leaders is “reading the room,” but HOW do you do it? In this episode, you’ll hear from Candice, an analytics leader at Google. She shares exactly how she learned to diagnose someone's communication style in minutes and tailor her message on the fly. You'll hear the framework she uses to read any room (interviews, stakeholder meetings, even emails), how she positions the same achievement differently depending on who's listening, and more. If you've ever felt like you're guessing in high-stakes moments and need a system for reading people fast, this conversation gives you one.
