Here’s one of her quotes: “Communication is all about intent. We need to ask ourselves: What is my intention to help support my audience? How do I want them to feel?”   Here are the 3 Takeaways:   1.   Strategic Presence is about adapting to how you show up in the room – we need to be flexible and agile.   2.   Finding your voice is about getting into the arena and it can be uncomfortable but there are ways to prepare for that.   3.   Listening and curiosity gets the attention off ourselves and questions are a low risk way to contributing to a meeting.    We hope you’ll enjoy this episode!   As mentioned in the episode: Jacqueline’s book, The Non-Obvious Guide to Better Presentations   More about Jacqueline: Jacqueline Farrington has over 20 years’ experience as a change maker, empowering leaders and their teams to spark transformation and innovation through communications.
