SUMMARY:West County Chapter Meeting - Communicate Confidently with Just About Anyone
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”” css_params=””] \nGUEST SPEAKER: Amy Narishkin PhD\nTOPIC: Communicate Confidently with Just About Anyone \nWHERE: ll Bel Lago – 11631 Olive Blvd. St. Louis\, MO 63141\nWHEN: Thursday\, January 16\, 2025 – 11:30AM-1:00PM CST\nHave you ever felt awkward talking with a person who seems different? \nDo you wish you could have more genuine conversations? \nCould you use some tools to feel confident talking with just about anyone? \nIf you answered yes to any of those questions\, you’re in the right place. \nOur presenter today has worked with over 400 leaders around the world as an executive coach helping them to be confident communicators so that they can attract and retain diverse talent. \nShe holds a PhD in adult learning and has over three-decades experience speaking\, teaching and coaching-domestically and internationally.🔸So Often We Default to Silence Because We Don’t Feel Comfortable or Confident Speaking Up. After years of being belittled under the system of minimization\, women\, people of color and those who are differently-abled may hesitate to speak up for fear of retaliation\, misrepresentation\, social isolation or job loss\, even when asked to speak up. To upend the silence and find our voice\, we need cultural intelligence. \n🔸Cultural intelligence is what enables us to be in conversation with a person who has a different perspective or background. As a person develops the skills to show compassion for themselves and others\, particularly those who have a different experience\, they’ll be able to speak up and communicate confidently with just about anyone. \n🔸At home this creates more genuine productive relationships; at work this creates more collaboration\, commitment and productivity because people can bring their authentic selves. \nPresentation takeaways: \nIn this program\, participants will be able to: \n👉Uncover the cultivated cultural habit of minimizing our own and other’s voice. \n👉Identify the three ways to respond when someone comes in hot. \n👉Learn three tools you can use today to feel confident working and talking with just about anyone. \nShe has created an online course that you can find on her website so you can learn more skills to feel confident working with just about anyone. \nOn a personal note\, Dr. Amy has four adult children who still call her for advice\, and a Bassett Hound intern\, named Bruce. \nSo Often We Default to Silence Because We Don’t Feel Comfortable or Confident Speaking Up.
