Dr Laura Sicola is a leadership communication and influence expert and the author of “Speaking to Influence: Mastering Your Leadership Voice”. We have invited Laura to talk to us about how you can establish your vocal executive presence through the three C’s: command, connect and close the deal. She also addresses how to remain invitational in conversations even if there is an experience of competing priorities and how to unlock the potential of seemingly opposing views.

The key topics covered in this episode are:

  • The experts curse and not taking the perspective of the listener
  • Conversations are not a zero-sum game
  • People do not listen to process – they listen to respond
  • The three C’s: command, connect and close the deal
  • How to be intentional in the way you use your voice
