The leadership messaging framework you need to know!
Read time: 2 minutes. Look at some of the most powerful messaging out there. What makes them stick? A strong message often includes a few key elements: data and numbers, previous examples, and adding a human touch.

Have you ever looked around to see colleagues, who seem to put in half the effort, get all the recognition and attention just because they talk a lot? Maybe something like this happened at work this week and you thought to yourself: These people have no idea what they’re talking about, but they go on and on as if they do! The truth is, in many corporate workplaces, there tends to be an emphasis on who speaks the most. It’s called the babble hypothesis. Those who talked a lot were more likely...
