Being your authentic self at work: is it working for you or against you? It's both. Learn a proven model to persuade and win more often.
Course overview
Because 'just be yourself' is crummy workplace advice. Fix that in one week.
Being your unfiltered self at work is like showing up in pajamas - comfortable, but not helping your career. Here's the truth: more than two-thirds of us are perceived differently than we intend at work. That gap is likely keeping you from achieving your goals - but you can fix it.
Your authentic style is perfect - for people exactly like you. Too bad that's not who you need to influence.
In this live, cohort-based learning experience, you'll discover exactly how others perceive your communication style and get concrete tools to adapt when needed.
You'll leave knowing how to read any room and adjust your approach for maximum impact.
Through live sessions, practical exercises, and real-world applications, you'll master the Communciations Comfort Zone framework.
This isn't theory - it's a battle tested approach used by top performers to:
🏆 Win trust rapidly by identifying and breaking down communication barriers
💥 Approach challenging conversations with confidence
🤔 Stop wondering where conversations went wrong and learn to recognize the warning signs of misperception in real-time
🤖 Reinforce your learning and get suggestions post-course with our exclusive Communication Comfort Zone AI tool

Sheila O'Sullivan
With degrees from top institutions in my arsenal and a track record of professional success in competitive and challenging environments, I was promoted to C-level in my 30s. But as a leader, I was struggling to get the results I wanted from all of my team members. If I was recognized by others as being smart and accomplished, then why wouldn't people just do what I wanted all the time?
Because it takes way more than credentials to earn trust. More than anything, earning trust requires understanding how you appear to others in your interactions.
Since learning about the four communication styles years ago, I have seen the most seasoned executives have "aha moments" when they see how this tool empowers them and their teams to break communication barriers and improve outcomes.
I have relied on this model in my roles as a VP, CSO, and COO in rapidly growing companies to successfully manage change and build cross-functional team relationships. I am thrilled to bring the model to students through Maven.
