About the author
Foreword
Being able to communicate and make an impact concerns a lot of people.
We know this because we've been sharing 360 degree feedback with clients for quite a while now, and we’ve seen it come up time and time again.
Five Steps to Being Heard
takes all the building blocks of getting your message across, and puts them into a clearly defined structure that is easy to understand and remember.
It took me just an hour to read, and it was an hour well spent.
There may be some elements that you already know – it would be surprising if you didn’t – but what you will learn is how to assemble them in a way that makes sense and gets results.
Getting your message across to the right person is critical; this enjoyable little book shows you how to do just that.
Happy reading.

Why are you here?

You will stand a better chance of being influential, getting your point across and fulfilling your ambitions. After all, how can they give you the job you want, or the support, or the glory, if they don’t know who you are, what you want and what you can do?
It’s not about goal setting or helping you find direction. There
