Are You Undermining Your Credibility & Influence?

Posted on: April 17, 2017 Category: Blog

Are you chipping away at your credibility or being tuned out due to your overuse of outdated, distracting phrases? What is your vocab saying about you? Phrases such as: “Out-of-the-box thinking” (an overused buzz word) to “Does that make sense?” (asking for validation) to “I’ve been too busy” (giving excuses) could be compromising your leadership presence.

For 7 more distracting and career limiting phrases, read Success Magazine: 10 Phrases to Drop from Your Vocabulary. Do a quick review: what phrases am I using that might be holding my career back?

Wishing you much career success!
