Say It Skillfully™ is a show that helps you to benefit from Molly Tschang’s expert guidance on the best possible ways to speak your mind at work in a positive and productive manner. In Episode 23, Dr. Chris Sidford, board-certified emergency medicine physician, joined to share practical advice both to protect against Covid-19 and be proactive in your career possibilities, which led to his medical consultancy. Mitali, an executive coach, raised the topic of how do leaders convey tough information to their people about the state of the business, including layoffs (21:00). And Yoon-hee was open with her English-as-a-second language struggles and keen to find a way to overcome them (34:15). Molly's thought for the week: Be present. Be hopeful. Meet people where they are, not where you wish they’d be, so they feel heard and seen. And know this time of uncertainty shall pass with new opportunities to emerge. Listen in and learn to navigate work while being invaluable and true to yourself.
