In this episode I interview Laura Field, Director of Spoken Words, a company specialising in providing professional support to international clients who wish to improve their communication skills in the business environment.

Laura and I discuss what it takes to be an excellent communicator; how we sometimes are too critical of ourselves when speaking, which can have a negative impact on our confidence and competence; and we explore ways in which we can all continue to improve our communication and presentation skills in English.

Laura reveals her Top Three Tips for developing excellent communication skills as we explore the challenges that people face in the new hybrid working environments that have become the 'new normal' in the post-Covid working world.
