Coaching a Communication Expert on Finding His Successor | Christopher Salem | Ep 1041

From Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong Niiamah Ashong

"I'm not here to tell people what to do. I'm here to influence them to see what's possible that's better than where they're at." - Christopher Salem

Join Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and Christopher Salem, for a live coaching conversation. Chris' challenge: getting leaders to treat communication as an operational skill while finding the people who can do his work at his level.

You'll walk away with:

Why communication is an operational skill, not a soft one
How to lead with the way your audience processes information, not with features
Why the gap at your level is who, not how

Welcome to the Outlier's Edge Podcast, hosted by Niiamah Ashong, Founder of Outlier's Edge and Sherpa of the World of Difference. On this podcast, you'll join other high-performing unconventional leaders and entrepreneurs (aka Outliers) as they talk about leveraging what makes them different to make a difference in the world.
