What a guest to open up the new series!!
Today I’m joined by Genelle Aldred - communication strategist consultant, broadcaster, author, deputy chair of Women In Journalism, previously a journalist for BBC/ITV/ ITN, a golfer and an ambassador for the charity SANDS.
In her book, Communicate for Change (and pretty much any interaction you have with her), Genelle asks the questions we should probably all be curious about. But, unlike a lot of reads, Genelle doesn’t fill the space with infinite answers. She sparks curiosity, vulnerability and rallies the importance of listening, mixed with practical insights and anecdotes.
One of the lines I hold really close to my heart of Genelle’s is ‘clarity is kind’ so I was grateful that we covered this off for the realities of the corporate world. We openly explored that nuance is necessary but not easy to give, the reality that there is no silver bullet but there is a first step and there was some golf analogies thrown in for good measure!
Genelle has a unique and empowering style about her and I’m incredibly grateful to have gotten to know her and her work a bit better over the last couple of years. This is a conversation I’d love as many people to listen in on as possible, because her incredible experience shines a light for individuals and companies about the power of better communication.
You can find out more about Genelle on her website and LinkedIn.
