  • Build Unwavering Confidence With The Priming Effect
    2024/11/08
    In our last episode, we met Erica, the VP of Human Resources who faced challenges in articulating her ideas to executive leadership. We welcomed expert Brielle Woolhouse, who specializes in empowering leaders to become confident and articulate speakers, and she shared invaluable insights. Today, Jay dives into the critical role communication plays in shaping your career. It's not just about unlocking promotion opportunities—effective communication also enhances your job satisfaction and overall work experience. Jay references a pivotal study published in the Journal of Management, which found that professionals with strong communication skills are more likely to be promoted and build better relationships with peers and supervisors, ultimately leading to greater visibility and career advancement. Interestingly, another study from 1996 revealed a two-way relationship: those who communicate confidently report higher job satisfaction, highlighting the importance of honing these skills. He also introduces the Priming Effect, a two-minute exercise designed to boost your confidence before important interactions. This technique, typically reserved for his clients, is now available to you—just think of it as a powerful addition to your routine. Don't miss our next episode, where we meet Tara, a senior account manager at a career crossroads, and hear from Geoffrey Roche, a leader in workforce transformation, as they explore personal branding and offer insights to help Tara navigate her decision. Tune in and take your communication skills to the next level!

  • Meet Erica - Being A More Confident Communicator
    2024/11/04
    Meet Erica. It’s the end of the quarterly budget meeting, and with a forced smile, she says goodbye to her peers and CEO. As she heads to her office, head down, she’s overwhelmed with a single thought: “Why can’t I just get my message across?” On paper, Erica’s role as VP of Human Resources looks successful. But today’s meeting felt like a failure. She struggled to present confidently despite preparing a detailed proposal to boost employee well-being and reduce attrition. Her nervousness took over, and Erica stumbled when the CEO questioned her ideas. Instead of making her case, she left feeling small and doubting her abilities. Jay sits down with Brielle Wohlenhaus, founder of CrossGen Media, a consulting company that empowers leaders to communicate with clarity and impact.

Jay spoke with author and TEDx speaker Kristel Bauer to explore how Maria—and so many others—can work through these challenges. Now, host Jay Abbasi dives deeper into the realities of imposter syndrome, which studies suggest impacts 70% of people, especially high achievers and leaders. Jay introduces findings from a 2016 study published in Frontiers in Psychology, which highlights how personalized coaching can reduce imposter syndrome and increase self-efficacy. He also shares how mindfulness meditation loosens the grip of perfectionism, helping individuals become more grounded and resilient. Drawing from his own experience as a coach and speaker, Jay explains how these two strategies—coaching and mindfulness—offer practical ways to overcome imposter syndrome and manage negative self-talk. Stay tuned for our next episode, where we’ll meet Erica, a VP of human resources at a manufacturing company who struggled to present her ideas confidently to the executive team.
