Your business emails should not look like a text from a 17-year-old!
One of my C-suite clients was told this was the primary reason they would not ascend the corporate ladder any further.
If that's how you email, this video should help. Reach out privately if you'd like to work together to fix it.

"Steve gave me the tools to quiet the self-doubt in my own head. He helped me get comfortable speaking in front of large audiences, but his impact went far beyond presentation skills."

It was such an honor to work with Susie Driscoll, Senior VP at the billion-dollar tech company, Nerdio.
If you have major career aspirations but a similar realization that your forward-facing responsibilities might be holding you back, feel free to DM me. Thank you, Susie, for your trust and for sharing these very generous words.
🙏 🙏 🙏
"I just wrapped up a coaching series with Steve. It’s been a great experience.
In January, at our company meeting, I had the opportunity to put these skills into practice. Standing in front of that audience felt very different. The nerves were still there, but this time I felt prepared, grounded, and confident in a way I hadn’t before.
I hesitated to share this, but it feels important. We are all human. We all deal with fear in some form. The difference is whether we choose to face it and put in the work.
Thank you, Steve, for the guidance and push!"
There's one mistake EVERYONE makes when they have to host a panel - asking different questions to everyone on the stage. STOP DOING THAT. Here's why...
Ask yourself: What's the point of even having a panel discussion?
Answer: to offer different perspectives on a subject. Even if their answers are the same, their perspectives are different.
When you ask a new question to each person, you aren't allowing them to chime in on the previous answer. They can't offer their perspective. There is no chemistry on the panel because you're not allowing it to happen.
Or worse, they ignore the question you spent YOUR time coming up with. Have you noticed how often someone on a panel doesn't address the question, but says something like, "I'd actually like to weigh in on what Jeffrey said..."
So don't waste your time coming up with 80 questions for a half-hour panel. Come up with 4-5 questions (not Yes/No), and ask EACH panelist those same questions.
Yes. This sounds and - at first - feels crazy. But you'll find it actually works wonders. Tweak the wording, or simply ask each panelist, "What do you think about that?" or "What's your take?" or "How do you feel about that?" Then watch what happens.
If they all give "the same" answer, you're establishing consensus, which is powerful. Plus, you never know who's going to give the best
If there are any differences, THAT'S when you ask a follow-up like, "Jeffrey, you said 'A,' and Marcia, you said 'B.' Why?" And that's when you get fireworks.
This eliminates a TON of work for you, and delivers a scintillating panel discussion that the audience will remember... which means they'll remember YOU as the architect.
