How confident are you in demonstrating your leadership communication skills with stakeholders?
You’re a GM or an Executive Leader of your department. Imagine being in a meeting when you are pitching for some new business or trying to sell in a new direction for your team, and one of the stakeholders asks you a question, but you’re caught off guard and don’t know how to respond. And so you just cease up or fumble an inappropriate response. Afterwards you realise how bad that sounded and feel annoyed and worse, beat yourself up about it for days later🚨
Think about the impact this could have on your team:
a. Your team looks to you for guidance, and not having a clear answer can shake their confidence in your leadership.
b. Stakeholders and partners may hesitate to work with you in the future if they sense uncertainty.
c. Trust is a cornerstone of effective leadership. When you fail to communicate effectively, it can erode relationships with key stakeholders.
Now, picture yourself confidently handling any question. It’s actually easy with a model we developed called Satisfy & Shoot!
With the right leadership communication skills, you can lead with clarity and authority, leaving a lasting positive impression.
