EP 37: Live Coaching with Rob on Confidence, Speaking, and Focus

Welcome to a live coaching session with your host, Chris Goodman! This episode is something a little different as you will be listening in on a conversation with Rob Reddinger, a business professional in the restaurant industry. We work through a couple of issues, including speaking clearly, effectively, and with authority, dialing into focus, specifically how Rob prioritizes tasks, and how he can simplify what needs to be done in the moment without becoming overwhelmed.
