Liz Dow, CEO - LEADERSHIP Philadelphia: Storytelling and Organizational Culture Speaking to Influence
-
- Management
Understanding your audience’s needs begins with making connections between their current experiences and your unique skills. This week Liz Dow shares how her organization has listened to the needs of high performers and created an offer to help them navigate challenges and provide leadership support.
Liz and Laura explore how Liz has adjusted her messaging in response to COVID burnout, focused on the question of “what’s in it for you?” and how her ability to foster deep conversation has made her a better advocate and leader within her organization and her community. Liz also shares how she is focusing on improving her public speaking skills and Laura gives specific strategies to navigate the line between “scripted” and “winging it.”
Here are a few things you’ll learn during this conversation:
The difference in messaging between approaching the board and approaching sponsors with a new product or idea
How to make someone feel comfortable enough to open up during a conversation
Why you don’t need to memorize a speech to make it effective
How to make more personal connections with your staff
How a job becomes a calling
During the 24 Hour Influence Challenge Liz inspires our audience to foster their own deep conversations by asking “What is the kindest thing anyone has ever done for you?” Liz shares how that question has opened doors to honesty and sets a tone of positivity, and how she finds connections with others through stories of kindness.
Liz Dow is the author of the book, Six Degrees of Connection. She is also the CEO of LEADERSHIP Philadelphia, a leadership development and civic affairs organization bringing people together across sectors to serve and strengthen the greater Philadelphia community.
