In this episode of the DeadThree Coaching Show, we break down one of the most overlooked tools in leadership: the words you choose.

Liz Wiseman reminds us in Multipliers: “Leaders must change the conversation. New words create new worlds.” The language you use every day either multiplies your people — building clarity, trust, and ownership — or it diminishes them, leaving confusion, low morale, and stalled progress.

From locker rooms to boardrooms, your words set the tone. Whether it’s the difference between “work for me” and “work with me,” or swapping “we can’t” for “here’s how we will,” leaders who are intentional with their language create cultures where belief and performance thrive.

👉 Inside this episode:

• Why your words are never neutral — they either shrink your team or expand it.
• How simple language shifts create ownership, trust, and momentum.
• Why organizational health depends less on strategy decks and more on daily conversations.
• The power of names and acknowledgement to lift engagement in any room.
• How consistent, disciplined language ties directly to execution in the SDC Playbook.

We’ll close with three action items you can use this week to audit your words, reframe your language, and build trust through intentional communication.

Because here’s the truth: your words don’t just describe your world — they create it.
