In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Michelle Gladieux, author of Communicate with Courage, explores the four hidden challenges of effective communication and shares practical strategies for overcoming them. From embracing vulnerability to balancing authority and empathy, this conversation is packed with actionable insights to help you communicate with authenticity and purpose.

TAKEAWAYS

• Bravery is a critical component of effective communication as it allows us to take risks and avoid regret.

• Hiding from risk stems from fear of exposing vulnerabilities, which can hinder personal growth and authentic connections.

• Clinging to being right often blocks the opportunity to learn from others’ perspectives and experiences.

• Pessimistic self-talk can negatively color communication, but choosing optimism can transform both interactions and outlooks.

• Settling for "good enough" prevents individuals from reaching their full potential in meaningful situations.

• Balancing vulnerability with authority can humanize communication, especially for those in leadership roles.

• Sharing personal communication goals with others helps shift perceptions and fosters accountability.

• Thoughtful self-reflection and feedback-seeking are essential for continuous growth as a communicator.
