Episode 12
In this episode, we are joined by Chris Graham, the founder and principal of TellPeople, a communication and presentation skills training firm in Toronto, Canada. Diana and Chris begin by examining different aspects of successful leadership. They continue their discussion by looking at the best ways to engage with someone who may have incorrect facts by asking questions about their feelings and motivations. They conclude their discussion on feedback by first asking if feedback is always desired, which guides the timing and specificity in providing that feedback.
Today's Selected Questions
- What does success leading others look like to you?
- How do you have a conversation with someone who has their facts wrong?
- How do you provide feedback to others?
