The Lazy CEO Podcast - Communication Styles and Overcoming the Fear of Speaking Up

In this episode of "The Lazy CEO Podcast," host Jim Schleckser speaks with Allison Shapira, a former opera singer who now specializes in improving communication styles, particularly public speaking. Though not the founder, she has been involved with the nonprofit Vital Voices Global Partnership. The podcast delves into the universal fear of public speaking, its evolutionary roots, and how public speaking is an opportunity for collaborative leadership.
Shapira emphasizes the importance of identifying one's purpose before speaking, whether it's in a meeting, a pitch, or a presentation. This sense of purpose will inform how leaders communicate with their team and other stakeholders. She advocates for consistent messaging that is authentic and inclusive, focusing on the outcome desired from the communication.
