Everything Is Based On How You Are Communicating
Communication is the foundation of every interaction; every hire, every sale, every “yes” and every “no.” How we communicate, and how we connect our message to our conversation partners’ interests, will determine how well we can influence another person. Don’t want conflict, miscommunication, decreased morale, turnover – how leaders communicate to their people is a huge part of that.

What Clients and Audiences Are Saying
“
A powerhouse of a presenter who is as approachable as she is knowledgeable, Michelle makes a memorable dent in her audience drawing people in, peaking their curiosity, and advancing their skills and self-awareness. Hours feel like minutes and the takeaways keep on giving. An uber professional, I would hire, recommend, and take a workshop from Ms. Lederman in a New York nano-second.

From the moment she stepped on stage, she was engaging and charming. She translated her knowledge of personality types into leadership skills that can be used to connect with others and navigate difficult situations. She used humor and everyday situations to demonstrate her points. Fantastic!
