Leading Communication with Ellie Lloyd-Jones

Ellie is one of Better Bolder Braver’s Founding members. She’s been with us literally - and very much in spirit - from the beginning. Ellie coaches new leaders and one of the things she likes to focus on with them is communication. Communicating as a leader has never been as challenging as over the last two years. With the environment and government guidelines changing at pace with little or no notice, team members working more flexibly, dynamically and remotely, emotions running high and competing priorities, getting your communication right has never been so important. Ellie says, “How and when your people receive a message from you and their emotional state when they do receive it can all play a part in how the information is digested and acted on… When you know your people well, it becomes much easier to plan your messaging with each team member in mind and anticipate how they might react.” … But what happens when you don’t know people well and you are trying to communicate with them through your marketing? Ellie is going to tell us how the work she does with us in the Better Bolder Braver community is helping her in both her coaching work and in terms of putting herself out there as a coach.
