EP378: Andrea Driessen - The Secrets To Improving Your Communication Skills

“I am just obsessed with helping people get results,
because otherwise why are we reaching out to the
community?”
-Andrea Driessen


The first port of call when looking for a business to support our
needs is often a quick Google search. The words, pictures and
videos on that business website influence our decisions long
before we ever meet the person behind the site.


Despite this, many of us don’t put much stock in how we are
talking about ourselves and what we do online, or in person.


Andrea Driessen, a TEDx speaker and award-winning author, is this
episode’s featured guest. She has spent her career challenging
people to think differently about the ways they engage with
others. Taking businesses from being all about the individual to
all about the services they can provide to their clients.


If you are struggling to write about yourself, create videos
about what you do, or find it hard to talk to people in a concise
and engaging way, then this is the episode to get you thinking
differently about how to communicate the why of your business.
