The information age empowers us to reach our audience in diverse, ever changing ways.
Internally or publicly, an executive leader today must know how to convey a perception, a project, a vision, and win the support of stakeholders.
Learning to communicate is learning to make a point, namely, to effectively use the instruments of discourse. Moreover, all components of speech – words, tone and body language – must be consistent. Because the audience perceives far more than what is said.
Everyone can develop communication and assertiveness skills and find a personal style that strengthens his or her presence.

Training of an executive in leadership for internal speech communications.
A communicator must be concerned
with unchanging man –
what compulsions drive him,
what instincts dominate
his every action, even though
his language too often camouflages
what really motivates him.
For if you know these things
about a man, you can touch him
at the core of his being.
