Julian was highly effective in his job role both as a technical expert and manager. However, we assisted in pinpointing that upward communication with seniors, peers, and clients was a major barrier.
To remove this block Julian needed to learn numerous speaking mindset tools that enabled a shift including how to present on the spot. Through his new tools, he fused both his speaking mindset and delivery to create new ways to think with ease when under pressure and present in a way that would help him feel at ease.
