Thank you, Dr. Lee! To summarize: - Mistake 1: Communicate to impress. Solution: Communicate to impact. - Mistake 2: Not creating a fair exchange, only presenting data. Solution: Don't just bring data, consider each other's values to create a fair exchange. - Mistake 3: Not developing communication skills, focus too much on technical skills. Solution: Need to develop skills to communicate those technical values and beyond. Communications involve a wide range of skills. - Mistake 4: Trying to find opportunities. Solution: Make yourself discoverable. - Mistake 5: Communicating what you know. Solution: Articulate on your principles. I hope I understood your presentation correctly. Thank you for the insightful analyses! Thank you also for providing the chapter markers so we can go directly to the section most relevant to us!

Instead of speaking to impress, try speak to impact Great insight

- Executive communications can seem difficult, but there are five principles that can make it easier. - The first mistake people make is thinking the purpose of executive communication is to impress. - When trying to impress, people puff themselves up and come across as inauthentic. - The solution is to shift the mindset to speaking to impact, not to impress. - The second mistake is not creating a fair exchange through communication. - People have different values and conflicts arise when those values contradict each other. - The solution is to seek to understand the values of others and find a way to create a fair exchange. - The third mistake is not being clear and concise in communication. ----From Notta's video summarizer

I don't know how I came across you but thank you so much. So relatable to my current role, esp. point 1, 4 and 5. This is a GEM!

Dr. Lee, thank you so much. Your teachings are of enormous value. Your sense of service humbles and inspires me.

You have not just kept me watching all your videos but you have kept me as you personal fan! Too much respect for you

Hi Dr. Lee. I think it's been 3 years I am following your uploaded videos on YouTube since the pandemic started. I am so grateful for all those I see everytime I view your coaching videos. It really helps me to boast about myself, especially in terms of confidence.

Dr. Lee, your words are on point. During my time in the workforce, including a 20-yr Naval career, as well as during my three years in college, I have seen many individuals who try to impress(rather than impact). While many of them successfully create a solid first impression, the majority of those individuals often become exposed later afterwards. Thus, they fall flat on their face, and the same executives that they impress turn on them and never look their way again when discussing innovative ideas or projects

Of the few of your videos that I just binge-watched, no part has felt contrived. Valuable, free advice akin to yours makes youtube a better place! Thank you!

This makes me think, communicate such as to entice others into revealing their views, values, and principles, show that you listened by synthesizing it back to each, and then show your principle of finding a solution that fairly incorporates the interests of all the others. I think this approach would impact (not impress), keep oneself on a level playing field with the others, not put you into conflict with the values of others, and position yourself in a de facto place of leadership among them.

The issue I have with leadership communication is when people are manipulating their team to look good, look like a leader with overview, but on the extend of doing the actual work that they were hired to do, meaning their work is shifted to the colleagues. If these people then get promoted, I feel the need to quit. Like I did last week. Thank you co-worker for talking me out of my team, because there is only so much hypocrisy everyone can take.

The first way an executive must learn how to speak is - how to not lie while not telling the truth - and the second is - how to lie while telling the truth. Master those two methods of speech and you’d be capable of replacing most executives in the US on a moments notice; a side benefit is that you’d be uniquely qualified to be a politician also.

Thanks Dr Grace, I recently by chance landed on this you tube video and I find it really very helpful. Real issues & real solutions.

This is a powerful video. I was grinning all the way through. Not many people can hold my attention the way you do. Thank you! You have earned my subscription. ❤️❤️

Wow! Stop looking for opportunities and become discoverable. Powerful advice! This advice answers the question I have in mind for a long time.

So clearly and wonderfully presented, thank you Dr Lee for this presentation. The 3 common mistakes are continually observed in workplaces, it good to impact and not to impress when one is communicating.

Hi Dr. Lee. I am nowhere near an executive position at the moment, but this video has provided me an idea how to begin effectively communicating with other members on the same team. Thank you for your insights on the subject!

Thanks Dr. Lee, this is exactly what I was looking for.
