Manage episode 480270996 series 3555445
Executive coach Katie Neal shares insights on confident communication for women leaders and the importance of understanding your core values to navigate career and life transitions.
• Transitioning from PR and communications to executive coaching after 20+ years in the field
• Creating "What The 40s" (WTF) - a small group coaching program for women navigating mid-life challenges
• Understanding that core values aren't aspirational but what truly drives us at our core
• Acknowledging that values like "family" or "kindness" may not be our core values despite their importance
• Recognizing the double standard where assertive women are labeled negatively while men are praised
• Moving beyond the ineffective "compliment sandwich" to provide clear, direct feedback
• Eliminating diminishing language like "just" and "I think" from professional communication
• Building relationships and networking as foundational skills for business success
• Being the woman who builds up other women rather than tearing them down
