Event Overview	Masterful communication is nothing short of an unfair competitive advantage. In fact, I believe courageous conversations are the game changers. You know those uncomfortable conversations we hope will disappear if we avoid them … yet they tend to actually grow?! Let me show you how having the courage to truly connect with the people around you will reveal a whole side of life you’ve been missing! This keynote will entertain, educate and inspire you to rethink how you approach conversations. When you truly understand what drives our interactions, you have the opportunity to know a lot more about people than they realise they are giving away! All you need is the tools you will learn and the courage to have meaningful conversations. The concepts you will learn during this keynote are immediately applicable in all areas of their life – both at work and at home. After all, we communicate all the time. The result … You will be a better colleague, leader, direct report, partner, parent, friend.
