Matt Abrahams contacted Claire via Linked In to say ‘Can we talk about my new book: Think Faster, Talk Smarter: How to Speak Successfully When You’re Put on the Spot‘. It was a no brainer to say yes as we have been doing so much work on not knowing and how to speak when you don’t know what to say!
There are some great insights in today’s episodes including the value of what we do outside work that builds our courage and presence inside. For Matt, it’s martial arts. Matt shares his journey to coaching and the motivation behind writing the book. He discusses the six-step methodology for saying something when you don't know what to say, which includes managing anxiety, reframing speaking as an opportunity, and listening deeply. The conversation also explores the connection between coaching and other disciplines such as martial arts and improv.
