Sam Horn Teaches Leaders to Communicate in 44 Minutes

Aug 26, 2020

Communication is everything.  Sam is the master of getting your story out of you…and into the world. This is not a podcast… it is a masterclass in communication.  I learned more in this forty minute conversation than in hours of training. If you are a leader, of any sort, you owe it to your organization, your people and your ideas to get them out of your head and into the world.

 

If all this isn’t enough, stay for Sam coaching me, real time, on how to make my story relevant to an audience.

 

"We have a responsibility to be relevant, if we are not in alignment with the times, then we are irrelevant, and that is a crime.  – Sam Horn
