Engage by Being Bolder
Too often people play it safe and communicate using “corporate speak” or what others actually refer to as “bulls#!t bingo.”
If this is you, STOP IT!
We have retreated to the safety of the comfort zone. Too many leaders forgot how to lead and are merely managing and in the process, losing great people.
It is time to get real. This include being respectful in your language, but let go of the flowery things you “should say” as say what you need to in your own language.
Be Bolder. Stand up for yourself and let go of the fear of saying the wrong thing. If you say the wrong thing, apologise and learn from it. People will understand.
Don’t let the fear of saying the wrong thing stop you from saying anything.
So… now … what was that you were saying?
