The leadership messaging framework you need to know!


Read time: 2 minutes. Look at some of the most powerful messaging out there. What makes them stick? A strong message often includes a few key elements: data and numbers, previous examples, and adding a human touch. In fact, research studies show that adding a human touch through storytelling increases a person's empathy and compassion - creating a greater sense of connection between the speaker and listener.

Adding any of these elements when we're creating a presentation, convincing stakeholders, or just motivating a team can increase the chances of our message making an impact.

Here are three reasons why these elements are powerful for communications:

  1. Utilizing data and numbers in our messaging can help bolster our claim
  2. Using previous examples can help make complex ideas easier to understand
  3. Putting a human face to our messaging and thoughts to draw on the emotions of our audience

My debut communication book, "Smart, Not Loud: How to Get Noticed at Work for All the Right Reasons" comes out tomorrow. The reason I wrote this book is because I want to provide a tactical roadmap for those who do not consider themselves the dominate, assertive, or loud-spoken type so they can unlock bigger and more coveted opportunities at work. As a person raised in a "Quiet Culture" myself,...

Learning how to celebrate your accomplishments at work is one of the key topics I cover inside my upcoming book: "Smart, Not Loud: How to Get Noticed at Work for all the Right Reasons."
