I have authored The Effective Communicator which helps readers develop greater levels of courage, confidence and consideration which they can easily apply into every conversation in every area of their life. If you find yourself putting off or avoiding difficult conversations, if you find yourself sometimes struggling to communicate clearly, or if you have been told you sometimes come across too strong, this book will help you become a more effective communicator.
I have helped people resolve challenges and overcome obstacles in their professional and personal lives by improving their communication skills all of my adult life. In addition to being a corporate trainer and coach, I have spent 25 years as a pastor and, as part of a Bachelor of Arts degree in religion, I have been trained as a professional counselor, a key component of which focuses on helping couples, families and individuals resolve their issues by improving their communication skills.
I wrote The Effective Communicator in response to seeing first-hand the impact of less-than-optimal communication skills and from the desire to help people achieve greater levels of success, both at work and in their personal life.
