Cutting Through
Engaging decision-makers in complex ideas
If you are an expert who needs to persuade others who do not share your technical background, this podcast is for you.
One of my biggest frustrations is seeing people with great ideas not get the traction they should.

Scroll down to find actionable insights to help you cut through in your own world.
