3-day Virtual Seminar

Speaking Too Much At Work: How To Know When To Stop

Overview

This session takes a behaviorally grounded look at why professionals over-speak and how to stop. Through self-assessment, behavioral analysis, and practical communication techniques, participants will develop greater awareness of their own verbal patterns and learn how to regulate them in real time. The session is designed to build the specific skill of knowing when you've made your point and having the discipline to stop there.

Why you should Attend

If you've been interrupted in meetings, talked over, or noticed eyes glazing over when you speak, this session explains why and gives you the tools to change it. If you've received feedback that you 'talk too much' or 'take too long to get to the point' but weren't given guidance on how to fix it, this session fills that gap directly. Speaking with less and landing with more is a skill, and it can be developed.
