Day 7 (!) Confident Communication Series ⚡️ A quick list to present yourself as: ✅ Less junior ✅ More credible ✅ More confident 5 things you should know about presenting to senior leaders: 1️⃣ Get straight to the point. It may be counterintuitive… START with the conclusion, the answer, the recommendation. They will either ask follow-up questions OR move to the next topic. 🙋🏼‍♀️Use the Minto Pyramid to help you structure your information: Answer ↳ Supporting argument ↳ Supporting data and facts 2️⃣ Focus on what it means to them. Frame your answer around: ✓ Why they should care ✓ Impact on their goals ✓ Direct benefit / consequence 3️⃣ Be ready to go in-depth. You’ve presented your high-level answer… now be ready to dive into supporting information! 🙋🏼‍♀️Have the backup information ready. Know where to “flip to” in the deck. 4️⃣ Communicate with hard facts & figures NOT generalities. For example: ❌ Sales improved this quarter. ✅ Sales were up 8% in Q1. 5️⃣ Communicate with confidence. Our body language & tone/voice make up >90% of our communication (!) ✓ Speak at a comfortable pace (read: not too fast!) ✓ Avoid filler words & jargon ✓ Sit up straight and take up physical space to project confidence. I believe in you! ⭐️ (Source: The minto pyramid image is from EPM) #communicationtips #communicationskills #careeradvice #corporatetiktok #careergrowth #worksmarter #professionalskills #workplacecommunication #youngprofessional #genz #earlycareer #corporategirlies

For example: You’re decreasing your manager’s mental load (big win!) You’re reducing miscommunication and rework.   5 THINGS TO TRY THIS WEEK: 1️⃣ Show up prepared for 1:1s. 2️⃣ Share updates before you’re asked.

Important skill 🚨🚨🚨 The topic of working with senior leaders comes up ALL the time in my coaching work. I recently led a training on it, and here are 3 QUICK THINGS you can change today. 1️⃣ Make the purpose of your email clear. Why are they receiving this email? What do they need to do with it? 2️⃣ Think phone first. Most executives read and respond to email on their phones. (Sent from my iPhone…) Make your key message fit on one screen. 3️⃣ Help them help you. If you need them to take action on something, make it easy for them to do so! Draft the intro you want them to send. Tell them exactly what slide you want feedback on. #career #careeradvice #managingup #leadership #executivepresence

You are intelligent and when you have a question to ask, it’s likely, 1) a good question, and 2) someone else has that same question and will be glad that you asked it. #careeradvice #career #executivepresence #communicationskills #confidentcommunication

AND what to say instead! Little language tweaks have a big impact on how we come across. Because whether intentionally or not, people hear “I could be wrong…” and start to think, “Hmm are they wrong?”. Remove “I could be wrong” and use these stronger alternatives instead! 💫 #careeradvice #career #executivepresence #communicationskills #confidentcommunication

It’s review season! And contrary to popular belief, you can influence your end-of-year performance review. HOW? By sending your manager a year-end recap email. WHY IT WORKS: 🫠Your manager has a lot going on 📆 This time of year can be especially busy 👀 Your manager won’t notice or remember all of the (great!) work you did this year 🏆 You’re making their job easier! A simple recap email can be the difference between a good and a great performance review. #careeradvice #career #performancereview #earlycareer #confidenceatwork
