Put on the Spot? Exact Phrases to Sound Confident When You Don't Have All the Answers


Listen Later

Struggling with on-the-spot decisions in meetings? Take my free "Executive Presence Quiz" to discover your current leadership presence level and receive tailored strategies to build your decisiveness muscle and command the room.

Episode Summary

Ever been asked to make a decision in a meeting when you weren't prepared? Discover why decisiveness is critical for your leadership image and learn tactical phrases to maintain your executive presence even when you need more time to think or gather data.

What You'll Learn

  • The three main reasons we struggle with on-the-spot decisions (and which one might be holding YOU back)
  • Why great leaders aren't actually great at "thinking on their feet" (they've just done their homework!)
  • Why "decisiveness" is a muscle you can build, not a fixed personality trait

If this episode resonated with you, please share it with another woman who could use these insights. The more we lift each other up, the more we can shift the dynamic and get more women at the table.

Remember, there's room for everyone at the table.
