When no one is clapping. When you are carrying expectations that feel heavy and at times unfair. When you are making decisions that cause conflict and require courage. Influence is demonstrated. That's the beginning of earning your influence. This book invites new and emerging leaders to examine their lived experiences, learned behaviors, and unspoken expectations-and discover how these things shape their communication in spaces of authority.

Inside these pages, you'll learn:

  • A deeper self-awareness by understanding how your experiences, values, and identity shape the way you lead and communicate in spaces of authority.
  • How to build communication skills that create trust, connection, and credibility with the people you lead.
  • How to apply the principles of influence in real leadership moments by practicing communication that invites collaboration, growth, and belonging.

This book is for:

  • New and emerging leaders who want to step up but don't always feel confident using their voice.
  • High-visibility organizational leaders and entrepreneurs who lead small and large teams.
  • Organizations committed to developing leaders who build healthy, sustainable teams
