Leaders tell their stories on purpose, emphasizing the take-aways and positive impact: “Regret leads to negativity...Given the opportunity, I might change a choice I made, but you can’t regret making what you thought was the best decision at the time.” RIP Carol Channing.

Communicating to engage, to build a relationship, takes multiple touches in a rhythm that's comfortable and sustainable. Think it through! #leadershipcommunication #speaklikeyoumeanit
