Communicate Effectively With Executives - 6 Tips! [087]

June 01, 2023 • Kara Ronin • Season 3 • Episode 87

Communicating with executives is different to communicating with your coworkers. Executives think on a deeper level. Their conversations are more focused. Their reactions are direct. There’s basically no time to waste when communicating with executives. This means that in order to communicate effectively with them, you have to tweak and change your style of communication.

There are a number of ways you can change your communication style so its more tailored for executives. In this episode, I share six different techniques that you can use. Depending on the situation, you may choose to utilise one or a number of them in the one conversation. You’ll learn all about them in this podcast episode!

In this episode, I talk about:

Changing your focus so it aligns with that of executives.
Getting to the point.
How to answer their questions adequately.
Importance of knowing facts and numbers well.
Speaking with conviction.
How to ask good questions to get noticed.
