Kathryn interviews Author Michelle D.Gladieux.Raising your game as a communicator is one of the best ways to make a difference in the world, but it takes courage to open up to others and invite others to open up to you. As a lifelong communication coach, Michelle Gladieux has discovered the four obstacles that can keep you from becoming the best communicator you can be; hiding, defining, rationalizing and settling. These challenges all have something in common. They require taking risks—to reveal yourself, question your beliefs, take a leap of faith, or move out of your comfort zone. Courageous communication requires self-knowledge, practice, and a desire to grow. Michelle and her team at Gladieux Consulting present communication seminars and lead strategic planning and executive coaching around the country.
