In this episode, Dee Clayton tackles a challenge many professionals face when giving a presentation or having leadership conversations – how do you communicate complex, strategic or detailed ideas in a way that’s simple and easy to follow?
Whether you’re presenting to senior stakeholders, explaining technical content, or pitching ideas to clients, you’ll recognise the pain of losing your audience in too much detail. They glaze over or try to rush you to the end.
Dee is passionate about communications and helping people to improve their communications and bring out the best in themselves, their teams and their communications. In this episode, she shares how to use the Simply Amazing Structure (SAS) to turn cluttered communication into a message that’s clear, relevant and impactful.
She explains how SAS helps you keep it simple, chunk your message to suit your audience, and then stay focused on what matters. With real stories from client work and everyday life, Dee explores the mindset behind talking too much or over-explaining and the tools that can help you feel more in control.
You’ll also hear how personality preferences and Public Speaking Monkey Mindsets can affect your communication style and how to work with them, not against them.
This episode helps you shift from expert-mode to effective communicator.
