Let's face it - dealing with emotions is the Achilles' heel or kryptonite of many leaders
Many worry that friction or disagreement may mean something's wrong (with their leadership). That's understandable; as children, we were always told not to fight.
As a result, leaders may try to avoid or hide conflict at all cost while also wishing that their team would communicate, collaborate, and perform better.
It doesn't help when conflict is seen as a setback.
But here's the unexpected truth:
Those moments when interpersonal dynamics get tricky or where it seems as if communication has reached an impasse are golden - and usually untapped - opportunities for company growth.
Your leadership communication skills were strong enough to get you where you are; now, take them to the next level so you, your team, and your organization can thrive.
Hi, I'm Joyce
I'm the expert leadership communication coach, trainer, and consultant who's had insights featured in Thrive Global, Medium, and Authority Magazine, successfully advocated for better disability accessibility, and resolved a hostage situation.
I've also supported numerous organizations - from small nonprofits and established manufacturers to government agencies - in creating stronger team cultures using the art and science of collaborative communication.
You can learn more about me here, but before you do...
Here are just a few benefits of taking your communication skills to the next level:
Accountability and Responsibility
You and your team can have greater autonomy, achievement, and fulfillment. Pushing and prodding not required.
Attraction and Retention of Top Talent
With a strong and stable team, you can put more time and money into the business, and get off the hiring hamster wheel.
Culture of Improvement and Inclusiveness
With more perspectives, your team can reduce errors, increase options, and get better results.
Less Unproductive Conflict and Turnover
Because people perform better (and stick around longer) when not on pins and needles or getting new hires up to speed.
Finish projects on schedule and on budget
Clear, effective communication results in fewer and less costly delays, errors, and misunderstandings and greater productivity.
Save Time and Money
With an effective and efficient team, those things you said you'd do and have if you had the time and money are possible!
Here are a few fun facts about your new coach:
• When 3 loose, unbridled and unfamiliar horses appeared at a busy intersection, I wrangled them...in heels.

• I'm a published author.
• When children are lost, I seem to be the adult they trust.
• I was one of only 2 students in my class that faculty recommended for law review based on the strength of my writing skills
TLDR version: I'm not only approachable and trustworthy; I also have the strength, patience, and skill to help you meet your immediate needs and fulfill your long term possibilities.
Gaining the skills that empower you to lead a strong and stable team makes it possible to have the confidence and trust you need in order to scale and create more of the opportunities and impact you want.
