COMMUNICATION COACHING to Strengthen and Fine Tune Your Interactions, Influence, and Innovation:
Personalized coaching for individuals

Noticing your reactions to what others say and do - as if you were standing far above -
can give you a great advantage. And it can be an even greater advantage to anticipate
how others are likely to react when you use particular skills with intention. You will be able

powerful skills for business - and life.

Brian, a project manager concerned about approaching deadlines, sends an urgent email to team members, who interpret his message as being angry and blaming. Now he is struggling and having difficulty undoing the damage, and he needs everyone's contribution for the project to be a success.
Lisa, a business developer and a new team member, is having trouble being heard or taken seriously,

are obstacles.
Ramon, a web designer asked to give a presentation for a job interview, spent hours and hours preparing, and during his presentation someone (the boss, he thinks) says, "I'm not sold on your idea."
He wants to respond with good skills, but he isn't sure what they are.
