How can you think and communicate like an executive? Why is your strategy only as good as your ability to communicate it? My guest on this episode is Vicky Zhao, Founder, School of Human Intellect and Speaking With Frameworks. During our conversation Vicky and I discuss the following: Why the clearest idea, not the best idea, is the one that wins How the GPS framework (Goal, Problem, Solution) elevates your point of view Why the hardest shift is moving from a doer mindset to a leader mindset Why you should put the bottom line up front, using the pyramid principle Why giving yourself permission to contribute is the first step to showing up like an executive Connecting with Vicky:
