15 ways women can elevate their influence at work and beyond

Do you lack confidence when speaking in meetings? Do you struggle to sell your ideas? Is your personal communication style in need of an upgrade?

Far too often tentative language patterns compromise how women communicate and are perceived by others. This course offers 15 ways to increase your confidence and impact. Words such as “just,” “does this make sense?” and excessive apologizing can diminish one’s effectiveness in the workplace.

We’re going to examine habits we have—often unconscious—that impact our power, persuasion, and influence. Use these 15 language tips in ways that serve you, whether you want to be more assertive in your delivery or perhaps soften your approach.

Learn strategies from the best-selling Udemy instructor of “Growth Mindset: The key to confidence, impact, and fulfillment.”
