Most of us like to see ourselves as empowered and direct… able to speak up and be honest about what matters to us. Yet at the moment that it’s called for, we often struggle to give feedback, frozen like a deer in headlights and unable to speak up authentically.

(And repeated research has shown that authenticity in the workplace — sharing key information and being honest about what you see and believe — is a key element in workplace success). Register here.
