Speaking Coach and Bestselling Author | Public Speaking, Communication, Career Growth

I wrote one of the first Dow Jones Newswires/Wall Street Journal online stories about the arrest of Ponzi scheme mastermind Bernie Madoff, perpetrator of a US$50 billion global investment scam.

My job was to get this story out as fast as possible. But I couldn't stop my mind from going to the scores of fraud victims. My thoughts also were on another casualty: the financial industry and, specifically, investor trust.

Flash forward to today. Madoff is dead after 13 years in prison, but his crime has left an indelible mark on me.

After years of experience in speaking, coaching, presenting and writing, I now help financial services professionals to develop their communication and presentation skills; not just to help them handle a Madoff-style crisis but to build trust on a regular basis and attract that higher-level clientele. 

When we work together, you will learn to develop strong speaking skills, whether you're presenting in front of an individual or an in-person or online group, to ensure that you're connecting, resonating and building trust. 

It's necessary to filter every expressed action and word through the question: “How is my message going to impact the person receiving it? Is this going to move them forward and closer to me?"

So I devote a lot of special attention to storytelling techniques that work, whether it's for an audience of one or one to many, to connect you emotionally with the people or individuals you want to reach.

Many of the ideas that I developed while I was a Rutgers University adjunct professor of public speaking are expressed throughout my book, “How to Become a Super Speaker."

If you know that you could attract more deals, close more business and attract high-net-worth clients with stronger speaking skills, I’d be happy to have a conversation about how my method can get you there.

I once got an email from Steve Jobs.

After a news service colleague and I published an earnings story on Apple’s quarterly results, an email landed in my inbox from sjobs@apple.com. 

It informed us we’d made an error in how we explained the geographic breakdown of Apple’s sales.

It was signed simply: “Thanks, Steve.”

I milked that for all it’s worth, for years: “Steve Jobs called me an idiot - and I’m so proud!” I’d tell anyone who would listen.

But here’s the serious part.

Right now, as fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 earnings roll out, a single interview can shape how results are remembered - sometimes more than the numbers themselves.

Research shows CEOs who appear in high-profile media often see meaningful compensation increases - driven as much by perception as performance.

I’ve watched strong leaders stumble in interviews - especially on layoffs, governance issues, or disappointing results - leaving the wrong impression under pressure.

Three quick ways to avoid that:
	1.	Anticipate tough questions. Prepare for the hardest topics and answer with clarity and empathy.
	2.	Practice concise messaging. Short, focused answers travel farther than long explanations.
	3.	Control your body language. Stay calm, maintain eye contact, avoid defensive gestures.

With earnings interviews happening right now, it’s not just about results - it’s about how those results are understood.

When have you seen a leader stumble badly in a media interview - on earnings or any topic?

One reason Warren Buffett connects so well with audiences is he doesn’t try to sound impressive.

❇️ The multi-billionaire Berkshire Hathaway chairman - who just stepped down as CEO - is plainspoken and anti-jargon. 

In one of his annual letters to investors that I covered for The Wall Street Journal, Buffett described a downturn in the insurance industry simply: 

“That party is over.” 

No theatrics. No unnecessary complexity. 

The influential executive - who is worth roughly $148 billion - once said his greatest investment was taking a speaking course when he was a college student. 

So it’s not surprising that he understands something many senior leaders miss: 

✳️ Communicating with complexity often signals fear. 

✳️ Communicating with clarity signals confidence.

Most communication breakdowns aren’t about intelligence.

They’re about forgetting there’s a human on the other side.

How does this approach land for you?

How wary are you of AI making mistakes?

▶️  The game-changing technology is fast and powerful — but some of its fails have been epic. 

Not just embarrassing, but dangerous, expensive and reputation-killing, as Thor Olavsrud reports in CIO magazine.

Here’s a roundup of AI misfires:

- The Chicago Sun-Times and Philadelphia Inquirer published fake summer reading lists after an AI-assisted writer hallucinated book titles.

- McDonald’s drive-thru AI misheard so many orders (like 260 McNuggets on loop) that they shut it down.

- Elon Musk’s Grok chatbot falsely accused NBA star Klay Thompson of vandalism — apparently confusing the basketball slang expression “throwing bricks” (missed shots) with criminal activity. More recently, Grok has drawn scrutiny for producing other unsafe and misleading outputs.

- A lawyer used ChatGPT to find legal precedents. The problem? The cases didn’t exist.

- Air Canada’s chatbot gave false bereavement fare info. A tribunal ordered the airline to pay damages.

- Zillow’s home-buying algorithm overpaid for houses, leading to $300 million in losses and mass layoffs.

- Microsoft’s Tay bot turned racist and misogynist in under 16 hours on Twitter, after absorbing toxic content.

- Amazon’s AI recruiting tool learned to disadvantage women, penalizing terms like “women’s” and downgrading résumés from graduates of all-women’s colleges.

Moral of the story?

⏩ AI is powerful — but it’s not a set-it-and-forget-it tool.

You still need ethics, oversight, and common sense … because it makes mistakes!

▶️ ▶️ How much risk are you willing to accept from AI errors? Let's hear your thoughts in the comments and poll.

AI gave someone 260 Chicken McNuggets. How often do you trust bots to get it right?

AI's "hype phase" is ending - 2026 will be about evaluating the tech's usefulness. That's what leaders and teams tell me. 

In the weeks and months to come, the questions - which used to be mostly about what AI could do - will go more like this: 

❇️  Where does AI genuinely add value?
❇️ Where does it create distance?
❇️ Where does it erode trust if we're not paying attention?
❇️ And is it actually helping us communicate better?

Sure, AI can help us say things better and faster. But connection still isn't scalable. 

✳️ ✳️ Which leads to a simpler question: When the message really matters, who do you trust to deliver it?

𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 🌎.  And a perfect example of why I work with Koreans 💙. I’ll never forget my first 2.5 years living in Seoul 🇰🇷 ⬇️
 
I came from a small town in the US.  

Living in a massive global city was a huge change.  

Another big change was the people.
 
I met so many 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗱, 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗞𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘀 with big dreams and so much potential.
 
But I also saw the reality:
 
💔 Many are overworked and underpaid  
💔 Long hours and 회식 culture 
 
And too often, the support they get is limited to:
 
❌ English free talking, grammar, and vocabulary tips 
❌ Generic interview advice and basic resume templates 
 
Every time I help a client like this, it feels like I'm doing something right in the universe. 

Because your career matters.  

You have a lot of value to offer.  

And you deserve better.

𝗧𝗼 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁: So proud of you.  And so grateful I could be part of your journey 🙏

𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲년 첫 번째 클라이언트 취업 오퍼 🌎  그리고 제가 왜 한국 분들과 함께 일하는지를 잘 보여주는 사례입니다 💙  서울에서 보냈던 처음 𝟮년 반의 시간을 저는 절대 잊지 못할 거예요 🇰🇷 ⬇️
 
저는 미국의 작은 도시에서 왔습니다.
 
거대한 글로벌 도시에서의 삶은 정말 큰 변화였어요.
 
하지만 또 하나의 큰 변화는 사람들이었습니다.
 
저는  꿈이 크고,  정말 열정적이고,  성실하게 일하는 한국의 많은 직장인들을 만났습니다.  그리고 그 안에 엄청난 잠재력이 있다는 것도 느꼈어요.
 
하지만 동시에 이런 현실도 보았습니다:
 
💔 과도한 업무와 낮은 보상  
💔 긴 근무 시간과 회식 문화
 
그리고 많은 경우, 그들이 받는 도움은 여기에 그칩니다:
 
❌ 영어 프리토킹, 문법, 단어 위주의 수업  
❌ 너무 일반적인 면접 조언과 기본적인 이력서 템플릿
 
그래서 이런 클라이언트를 도울 때마다  “내가 지금 올바른 일을 하고 있구나”라는 느낌이 듭니다.
 
왜냐하면,
 
당신의 커리어는 중요하고  당신은 이미 많은 가치를 가지고 있으며  더 나은 기회를 받을 자격이 있기 때문입니다.
 
이 클라이언트에게:  정말 자랑스럽습니다.  그리고 이 여정에 함께할 수 있어 진심으로 감사해요 🙏

❌ I don’t think “𝗱𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲” is very good career advice for young people 

Because ⬇️

𝗜𝘁 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻:
 
❌Your work must be activities you 𝘦𝘯𝘫𝘰𝘺

❌ If you have a hobby or passion, it 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 become your career
 
In my early 20s, I loved playing guitar and writing music.  So, I thought because it was an activity I enjoyed it needed to become my career. 
 
Looking back, that would’ve been a terrible choice.

❌ Being a metal musician is not financially viable unless you’re in the top 0.1%  
❌ I like staying in one place — constant touring would’ve made me miserable  
❌ When an activity becomes 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘥 for work, a lot of the joy disappears (at least for me)

❌ 저는 **“하고 싶은 일을 하라”**는 말이  젊은 사람들에게 꼭 좋은 커리어 조언이라고는 생각하지 않습니다 ❌  

왜냐하면 ⬇️
 
이 말이 종종 이렇게 오해되기 때문입니다:
 
❌ 일은 반드시 재미있는 활동이어야 한다  ❌ 취미나 열정이 있다면, 그것이 반드시 직업이 되어야 한다
 
저는 20대 초반에  기타 치고, 곡 쓰는 걸 정말 좋아했습니다.  그때는 그게 제 커리어가 될 거라고 진지하게 생각했죠.
 
지금 돌아보면,  그건 아주 나쁜 선택이었을 겁니다.
  
그래서 저는  이런 접근 방식이 훨씬 낫다고 생각합니다 👇
 
 
1️⃣ 내가 의미 있다고 느끼는 영향을 만드는 일을 하라
 
솔직히 말하면,  제 일의 하루하루의 작업 내용 자체에는  그다지 큰 흥미가 있지 않습니다:
 
• 영어를 교정하는 것  • 이력서나 링크드인 프로필을 다듬는 것  • 면접을 준비시키는 것
 
하지만 저는 그 결과와 영향에는  깊은 관심과 동기를 느낍니다:
 
• 사람들이 독성적인 직장 환경에서 벗어나도록 돕는 것  • 인생을 바꿀 수 있는 글로벌 직업을 얻도록 지원하는 것  • 연봉을 높여 가족을 더 잘 부양할 수 있게 만드는 것
 
바로 이것이  제가 계속 이 일을 하게 만드는 이유입니다.
 
2️⃣ 내가 좋아하는 삶을 살 수 있게 해주는 일을 하라
 
저는 독립성과 개인적인 자유를  정말 중요하게 생각합니다.
 
지금의 저는:  • 상사가 없고  • 집에서 일하고  • 클라이언트에게 진짜 가치를 제공하고,   도울 수 있는 사람들을 계속 찾기만 한다면
 
…시간과 삶을  스스로 결정할 수 있는 자유를 누리고 있습니다.
 
저에게는 이것이  모든 취미를 직업으로 만드는 것보다 훨씬 더 값진 일입니다.

New Facebook & Instagram Profile Picture👌. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸, 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀? Use this on LinkedIn too??? 😆 😎

(한국어 아래 ⬇️) I love working with my Korean clients, but here's something that honestly makes me a little sad 😞 ⬇️ 

How often 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀.
 
I talk to talented, hardworking people all the time who:
❌ Believe they have nothing valuable to offer  

❌ Constantly minimize or deny any career success they've had

❌ Are extremely harsh about their English or communication skills
 
Most of the time:
• It’s simply 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲
• It’s 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵
• Going into meetings or interviews with that kind of negative self-talk affects how others perceive you
 
So whenever I notice this with a client, I share one simple rule ⬇️
 
✅ “𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗱 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀.” ✅
 
𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺:  
• Beat themselves up constantly  
• Focus only on their flaws/mistakes
• Accept negative environments because they don't think they deserve better
 
𝗦𝗼 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗲𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 🤝
 
---

한국인 클라이언트들과 함께 일하는 걸 정말 좋아합니다.  하지만 솔직히 말해, 한 가지는 마음이 조금 아플 때가 있습니다 😞 ⬇️
 
바로 재능 있는 사람들이 스스로에게 너무 가혹하다는 점입니다.
 
저는 늘 성실하고 능력 있는 분들과 이야기하지만, 많은 분들이:  
❌ 자신에게는 내세울 만한 가치가 없다고 믿고  
❌ 지금까지의 커리어 성과를 계속 축소하거나 부정하며  
❌ 자신의 영어 실력이나 커뮤니케이션 능력에 지나치게 엄격합니다
 
하지만 대부분의 경우:  
• 그건 사실이 아닙니다  
• 정신 건강에도 매우 해롭고  
• 그런 부정적인 자기 인식을 가진 채 회의나 면접에 들어가면,  타인이 당신을 바라보는 인상에도 분명한 영향을 미칩니다
 
그래서 이런 모습을 볼 때마다  저는 클라이언트에게 한 가지 간단한 원칙을 이야기합니다 ⬇️
 
✅ “자기 자신에 대해 말할 때,  당신의 아이가 스스로를 그렇게 말하길 바라는 방식으로 말하세요.” ✅
 
당신은 아이가:  
• 끊임없이 자신을 자책하게 두지 않을 것이고  
• 자신의 단점과 실수만 보게 하지 않을 것이며  
• 스스로 자격이 없다고 느껴서  나쁜 환경을 그냥 받아들이게 두지도 않을 겁니다
 
그러니 자신에게도 그렇게 하지 마세요 🤝

(한국어 아래 ⬇️) One of the first clients I ever worked with 😌. We started at the beginning of 2023, before she even graduated from Ewha University ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
 
She shared a big dream:  

𝗚𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗞.
 
𝗔𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲:
• She wasn’t fluent in English
• She had never lived or job-searched abroad
• She didn’t know where to start
• Her previous “career coaching” was very limited (mostly just a resume edit)

We worked together through every step of her first global job search.

✅ Less than two months after graduating, she accepted a fully remote design job based in London 🇬🇧
 
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁:
 
𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯: She spent the year getting great work experience and earning a good enough salary to travel all around Europe ✈️.
 
𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰: She used the same global job search strategies again to get accepted into one of the top 25 Design Master’s programs in the world 🎓.

• Getting a Big Tech job abroad at only 25
• Starting a business
• Finally stepping into a gym to change your health
 
Be brave and get started.

제가 처음으로 함께 일했던 클라이언트 중 한 명입니다 😌  2023년 초, 그녀가 아직 이화여대에 졸업하기 전부터 함께 시작했어요 ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
 
그녀는 하나의 큰 꿈을 가지고 있었습니다.
 
영국에서 원격 디자인 직무를 얻는 것.
 
그 당시 상황은 이랬습니다:  • 영어가 유창하지 않았고  • 해외에서 살아보거나 해외 취업을 해본 경험이 없었고  • 어디서부터 시작해야 할지 몰랐고  • 이전에 받았던 “커리어 코칭”은 매우 제한적이었습니다 (대부분 이력서 수정 정도)
 
우리는 그녀의 첫 글로벌 취업 준비 과정을 처음부터 끝까지 함께했습니다.
 
✅ 졸업 후 두 달도 되지 않아, 런던에 기반을 둔 완전 원격 디자인 직무를 수락했습니다 🇬🇧
 
그 다음에 무슨 일이 있었을까요:
 
2023년: 유럽 곳곳을 여행할 수 있을 만큼 충분한 연봉을 받으며, 좋은 실무 경험을 쌓는 한 해를 보냈습니다 ✈️
 
2024년: 같은 글로벌 취업 전략을 다시 활용해, 세계 상위 25위권 디자인 석사 과정 중 하나에 합격했습니다 🎓
 
2025년: 석사를 마치고, 프랑스의 한 빅테크 기업에서 더 좋은 조건의 직무를 얻게 되었습니다 🌍
 
이 모든 일이 가능했던 가장 큰 이유는  (제가 운영하는 프로그램 때문만은 아니었습니다) ⬇️
 
✅ 그녀는 행동하는 것을 단 한 번도 망설이지 않았습니다 ✅
 
많은 유능한 사람들이 이런 생각을 하며 몇 년을 허비합니다:  
• “내일 시작해야지”  
• “지금은 좋은 타이밍이 아니야”  
• “조금 더 생각해봐야겠어”
 
이런 사고방식이 바로  당신과 당신의 꿈 사이에 있는 가장 큰 장애물입니다.
 
망설임은 실패보다 훨씬 더 당신을 멈춰 세웁니다.
 
용기를 내서 시작하세요.
 
결과는 반드시, 1000% 그럴 가치가 있을 겁니다 🤝

Yes, these things 𝗱𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿.
 
…but something else matters even more 👇
 
This awesome Korean client graduated university in February 2025.
 
Up to now, he’s only had internships and contract roles.
 
Using the strategies inside my program, he earned screening calls and interviews at 5 global companies  in December.
 
A month many people believe is “dead” for hiring.

The most important factors in getting a global job aren’t a perfect GPA or tons of experience.

• Taking consistent action
• Staying positive
• Not giving up

물론입니다. 원문의 톤·구조·임팩트를 그대로 살려 자연스럽게 번역했어요 👇
 
 
“글로벌 커리어를 원하지만, 그 전에 먼저…” ⬇️⬇️⬇️
 
영어 공부를 더 해야 하고,  경력을 더 쌓아야 하고,  자격증도 더 필요하고,  뭔가 더 있어야 할 것 같죠.
 
네, 이런 것들 중요합니다.
 
…하지만 그보다 더 중요한 것이 있습니다 👇
 
이 훌륭한 한국인 클라이언트는  𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱년 𝟮월에 대학교를 졸업했습니다.
 
지금까지의 경력은  인턴십과 계약직 경험이 전부였어요.
 
그럼에도 불구하고,  제 프로그램 안의 전략들을 적용해  𝟭𝟮월 한 달 동안  𝟱개의 글로벌 기업에서  스크리닝 콜과 인터뷰를 얻었습니다.
 
많은 사람들이  “채용이 거의 없는 달”이라고 생각하는 시기였죠.
 
전 세계에서 수백 명의 한국인 구직자들과 이야기하며  제가 반복해서 확인한 사실이 있습니다.
 
글로벌 취업에서 가장 중요한 요소는  완벽한 GPA나  엄청난 경력이 아닙니다.
 
가장 중요한 것은 바로:
 
• 검증된, 승률 높은 취업 전략을 따르는 것  • 꾸준히 행동하는 것  • 긍정적인 태도를 유지하는 것  • 그리고 포기하지 않는 것
 
이것이 바로  당신이 마땅히 누려야 할 커리어 기회를  실제로 만들어주는 요소들입니다 🤝
 
🚀 𝗣𝗦: 이 결과를 만들기 위해  그의 취업 전략에 단 𝟯가지 변화만 적용했습니다.
 
그게 무엇인지 궁금하다면?  👉 내일 올라올 포스트를 확인해 보세요.
 
 
원하시면:
 
• 더 캐주얼한 한국어 버전
• 혹은 전문적인 톤으로도 한 번 더 다듬어줄 수 있어요
• 한국 링크드인에 더 맞게 문장 길이도 조절 가능하고요
 
이 버전은 그대로 써도 충분히 강합니다 💪

Great finally meeting you, Jeff! Jeff has spent 𝟯𝟬 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 coaching global business communication, including at major companies like 𝗣𝗳𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿.

Jeff has helped 𝟭𝟬𝟬𝟬𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗻𝗼𝗻-𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 communicate more effectively at work.

We talked about what really helps non-native English speakers make strong impressions in 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.
  
• Key communication and cultural differences between 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝘀𝗶𝗮 and the 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵-𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗲𝘀𝘁

• How to properly prepare for 𝗶𝗻-𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀

드디어 만나 뵙게 되어 정말 반가웠어요, Jeff!  Jeff는 𝟯𝟬년 동안 글로벌 비즈니스 커뮤니케이션 코칭을 해왔고,  𝗣𝗳𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 같은 글로벌 기업들과도 함께 일해왔습니다.
 
Jeff는 지금까지 수천 명의 비원어민 영어 사용자들이  직장에서 더 효과적으로 소통할 수 있도록 도와왔습니다.
 
❌ 문법 규칙이나 대본을 외우는 방식이 아니라  ✅ 글로벌 동료들과 진짜로 연결되고, 서로를 이해하며,  신뢰를 쌓는 방법을 가르치는 방식으로요.
 
이번 대화에서는 비원어민 영어 사용자가  비즈니스 미팅과 프레젠테이션에서  좋은 인상을 남기는 데 정말 중요한 것들을 이야기했습니다.
 
• 동아시아와 영어권 서구 문화 사이의 주요 커뮤니케이션 차이  • 대면 미팅을 제대로 준비하는 방법  • 프레젠테이션 전에, 청중이 정말로 궁금해하는 내용을 파악하는 방법  • 프레젠테이션을 더 명확하게 만드는 슬라이드 구성 방법  (혼란스럽게 만드는 것이 아니라요)
 
어떤 문법 팁이나 관용 표현보다도,  이런 핵심 커뮤니케이션 스킬이  글로벌 환경에서 진짜 신뢰, 강한 인상,  그리고 더 좋은 기회로 이어집니다 🤝 🌎
 
전체 영상은 다음 주에 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻과 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗧𝘂𝗯𝗲에 공유할 예정입니다!
 
소중한 시간과 인사이트를 나눠주셔서 다시 한 번 감사합니다, Jeff 🤝

If you get a job offer in Korea 🇰🇷 (and honestly, this applies to most countries), this is the 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 I would ask before accepting: ⬇️
 
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸?
 
I’ve seen many great people accept job offers that seemed good only to discover:
 
❌ The “9 to 6” working hours were actually closer to 9 to 9  

❌ The 20-hour per week part-time internship is actually 30+ 

❌ The attractive salary isn't very good per working hour once overtime was included

❌ They should start looking for another job 5 months later because the awful work-life balance is seriously affecting their health

🤝 Don't let companies pressure you into accepting a job offer when details are still unclear.

🤝 You deserve to be paid for 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿 you spend working.
 
𝗣.𝗦. If you’re part of my 1:1 job search program, we review and negotiate every offer together. You only accept a role you’re genuinely happy with 🤝.

한국에서 🇰🇷 취업 제안을 받았다면  (사실 대부분의 국가에 해당되는 이야기이기도 합니다)  수락하기 전에 반드시 물어봐야 할 가장 중요한 질문이 있습니다 ⬇️
 
초과 근무(야근)에 대한 보상 정책은 어떻게 되나요?
 
겉보기에는 좋아 보이는 제안을 수락했다가, 나중에 이런 사실을 알게 되는 경우를 정말 많이 봤습니다:
 
❌ “9시부터 6시까지” 근무라고 했지만 실제로는 9시부터 9시까지였고
 
❌ 주 20시간 파트타임 인턴십이 실제로는 주 30시간 이상이었고
 
❌ 연봉은 좋아 보였지만, 야근을 포함해 계산해 보니 시간당 급여는 전혀 좋지 않았고
 
❌ 워라밸이 심각하게 무너져서 건강에 문제가 생기며 5개월 만에 다시 이직을 고민하게 된 경우
 
🤝 조건이 명확하지 않은 상태에서, 회사의 압박 때문에 취업 제안을 서둘러 수락하지 마세요.
 
🤝 당신이 일에 쓰는 모든 시간에 대해 정당하게 보상받을 자격이 있습니다.
 
P.S. 제 1:1 취업 프로그램에 참여하고 있다면, 모든 오퍼를 함께 검토하고 협상합니다.  당신이 진심으로 만족할 수 있는 역할만 수락하게 됩니다 🤝

When I’m not with clients (and even sometimes when I am 😆), this is where I’m working.

If you’re going to spend hours here every day, it should actually feel good to sit down.

Have a good weekend, friends! 

재택근무를 한다면 → 진짜로 머무는 게 즐거운 공간을 만드세요 👌
 
고객과 미팅이 없을 때는 물론이고  (가끔은 미팅 중에도 😆)  저는 여기서 일합니다.
 
매일 몇 시간씩 보내는 공간이라면,  앉는 순간부터 기분이 좋아야 하잖아요.
 
좋은 주말 보내세요, 여러분!

Hope your 2026 is off to a great start 🤝

This awesome client almost didn't reach out because she had such a negative experience with other coaches. 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗿, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁:

❌ Criticized her career decisions

❌ Told her everything she was doing wrong

❌ Made her feel like she was a 'failure' unless she paid for their help

Your career matters.  
You DO have value to offer.  
You deserve better.   

And while I believe in being honest (I won't sell someone a program whose goals are unrealistic), I believe in selling through hope, not fear 🤝

물론이에요. 감정·톤·메시지를 그대로 살려 자연스럽게 번역했습니다 👇
 
 
이 훌륭한 클라이언트는  과거에 다른 커리어 코치들과의 부정적인 경험 때문에  거의 저에게 연락조차 하지 않을 뻔했습니다.
 
그들은 그녀를 격려하기는커녕, 오히려 이렇게 했죠:
 
❌ 그녀의 커리어 선택을 비판했고  ❌ 지금까지 해온 모든 것이 잘못되었다고 말했으며  ❌ 도움을 받지 않으면 ‘실패자’인 것처럼 느끼게 만들었습니다
 
당신의 커리어는 중요합니다.  당신은 분명히 제공할 수 있는 가치가 있습니다.  그리고 당신은 더 나은 대우를 받을 자격이 있습니다.
 
저는 솔직함을 중요하게 생각합니다  (목표가 현실적으로 불가능한 경우, 프로그램을 권하지 않습니다).
 
하지만 저는  두려움이 아닌 ‘희망’을 통해 돕는 것을 믿습니다 🤝

Amazing working with you, Suyong 👏. Suyong thought about joining my program for almost a year before finally enrolling last fall.
 
𝗦𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗱𝗼𝘂𝗯𝘁𝘀 😕:
 
❌ Her career didn’t feel “impressive enough” to work with a coach  

❌ She wasn’t 100% sure what her next career step should be

❌ She worried about joining and not getting any results  
 
𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿:
 
She had a lot of value to offer.  

She just needed the right strategy to show it.
 
Less than 3 months after we started working together, Suyong accepted a 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗴𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝗷𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 💙.
 
Her first-year salary increase was more than 10× the cost of our entire 4-month program.
 
Beyond the salary, she now feels truly proud and confident in herself 💙
 
1️⃣: If you’re “not 100% sure” what you want next, that is often the best time to get coaching.  You can get clarity and a plan that could save you years
 
2️⃣: Investing in yourself is often the best investment you can ever make.
 
Amazing work, Suyong 🙂.

𝗣𝗦: We did 3 specific actions that led to this new job/salary increase. Will share them in tomorrow's post :)

Suyong, 함께 일할 수 있어 정말 좋았어요 👏  Suyong은 작년 가을에 등록하기 전까지 거의 1년 동안 제 프로그램 참여를 고민했습니다.
 
국제적인 커리어를 만들고 싶었지만, 여러 고민이 있었어요 😕:
 
❌ 자신의 경력이 코칭을 받을 만큼 “충분히 인상적이지 않다”고 느꼈고  ❌ 다음 커리어 단계가 무엇인지 100% 확신이 없었고  ❌ 참여해도 정말 결과가 나올지 걱정했습니다
 
하지만 첫 미팅부터 한 가지는 분명했습니다.
 
Suyong은 이미 아주 큰 가치를 가지고 있었습니다.  다만, 그것을 제대로 보여줄 전략이 필요했을 뿐이었어요.
 
함께 일하기 시작한 지 3개월도 되지 않아,  Suyong은 완전 원격 글로벌 마케팅 포지션을 수락했고  큰 연봉 인상도 함께 이루었습니다 💙
 
첫 해 연봉 인상 폭은  우리 4개월 프로그램 전체 비용의 10배 이상이었습니다.
 
하지만 연봉보다 더 중요한 변화는 이것입니다.  이제 Suyong은 스스로를 진짜로 자랑스럽고 자신감 있게 느끼고 있습니다 💙
 
두 가지 중요한 메시지:
 
1️⃣ 다음 커리어가 “아직 100% 확실하지 않을 때”가  오히려 코칭을 받기 가장 좋은 시기인 경우가 많습니다.  명확한 방향과 계획은 수년을 아껴줄 수 있습니다.
 
2️⃣ 자기 자신에게 투자하는 것은  대부분의 경우 가장 좋은 투자입니다.
 
정말 훌륭한 성과였어요, Suyong 🙂
 
PS: 이번 결과로 이어진 3가지 핵심 행동이 있습니다.  내일 포스트에서 공유할게요 👀

✅ 이 글이나 영상을 무리 없이 이해할 수 있을 정도의 영어 실력

1️⃣ 𝗪𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲
 
When we started, she felt worried:
 
❌ She worked at small companies  
❌ She worked on projects with small budgets  
❌ She often worked alone
 
But when presented correctly, this 'weakness' is also has an advantage.
 
She:  
✅ Managed many parts of projects by herself  
✅ Created, tested, and executed her own ideas  
✅ Achieved measurable impacts on the business
 
So instead of saying:
 
❌ I only worked on small projects.
 
We showed:
 
✅ Here are all the different responsibilities I managed completely by myself, which created this impact and value.
 
2️⃣ 𝗪𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗲
 
We:  
• Optimized her LinkedIn  
• Created a professional career portfolio  
• Planned networking messages she sent every day
 
She wasn’t just clicking “Easy Apply” and waiting.  
 
3️⃣ 𝗪𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲
 
The truth is, she had been 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿-𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 at companies in the past 😕.
 
When that happens for long enough, it’s easy to start believing that’s all you deserve.
 
𝗦𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗔 𝗟𝗢𝗧 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿. 
 
Instead of:  
❌ Hoping for a small raise 
❌ Being eager to accept any offer immediately
 
We:  
✅ Targeted a large salary increase (based on market research)
✅ Clearly proved her value throughout the entire job search
 
𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲:
❌ Feeling stuck at a company that doesn’t value you  
❌ Wanting a global career but unsure how to get there  
❌ Tired of applying to jobs and never hearing back

1️⃣ 이전 경력을 완전히 새롭게 정리했습니다
 
처음에는 이런 걱정을 하고 있었습니다:
 
❌ 작은 회사에서만 일했다  
❌ 예산이 작은 프로젝트가 대부분이었다  
❌ 혼자 일한 경우가 많았다
 
하지만 제대로 표현하면,  이 “약점”은 강점이 될 수 있습니다.
 
그녀는:
 
✅ 프로젝트의 여러 부분을 혼자 관리했고  
✅ 아이디어를 직접 기획하고, 테스트하고, 실행했고  
✅ 비즈니스에 측정 가능한 성과를 만들었습니다
 
그래서 우리는 이렇게 말하는 대신:
 
❌ “작은 회사에서 작은 프로젝트만 했습니다.”
 
이렇게 보여주었습니다:
 
✅ “혼자서 다양한 역할을 맡아 프로젝트를 이끌었고,  그 결과 실제 비즈니스 성과와 가치를 만들었습니다.”
 
 
2️⃣ 이력서만 제출하지 않았습니다
 
우리는 단순 지원을 넘어서:
 
• LinkedIn 프로필을 최적화했고  
• 전문적인 커리어 포트폴리오를 만들었고  
• 매일 보낼 네트워킹 메시지를 함께 준비했습니다
 
그녀는  “Easy Apply”만 누르고 기다리지 않았습니다.
 
대신,  눈에 보이고, 능동적이며, 전략적으로 움직였습니다.
 
 
3️⃣ 자신의 가치를 낮게 평가하지 않았습니다
 
사실 그녀는 과거 회사들에서  저평가되고, 낮은 보상을 받고 있었습니다 😕
 
그런 환경이 오래 지속되면,  그게 내가 받을 수 있는 전부라고  믿게 되기 쉽습니다.
 
하지만 그녀는  훨씬 더 나은 대우를 받을 자격이 있었습니다.
 
그래서 우리는:
 
❌ 작은 연봉 인상만 기대하거나  
❌ 어떤 오퍼든 바로 받아들이는 대신
 
다음에 집중했습니다:
 
✅ 시장 조사를 바탕으로 큰 연봉 인상 목표 설정 
 ✅ 채용 전 과정에서 그녀의 가치를 명확하게 증명
 
 
만약 당신이 지금:
 
❌ 회사에서 충분히 인정받지 못한다고 느끼고 있거나  
❌ 글로벌 커리어를 원하지만 방법이 불확실하거나  
❌ 계속 지원하지만 아무 연락도 받지 못하고 있다면
 
아래 댓글의 자료를 확인해 보세요.  이 상태가 영원히 계속될 필요는 없습니다 🤝

Here's a harsh truth about the current job market 😐 

If you are applying to good jobs ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

❌ Just sending your resume and waiting has an extremely low success rate ❌

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀: 

❌ You click apply on tons of jobs

❌ You barely hear back

❌ You maybe get a few screening calls in 100s of applications, but nothing close to an offer

❌ The biggest result from all that effort is just lowering your confidence 😕

In 2026, you need to do more than just sending your resume.

Especially if you're applying in a new country or industry where people don't know you. 

(I wish it wasn't like this, but it's just the reality we're in)

What does work in 2026? 

𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝟭 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆 🤝. 

Someone who knows you, likes you, and (maybe) is even willing to recommend you to the hiring team.

That's one of the reasons resume optimization is just a small part of my program. 

We'll make sure your resume looks great, but we'll also do whatever we can to get you that '1 relationship' 🤝

✅ Finding the right people to message at all the companies you're interested in 

✅ Reaching out to headhunters who could have great opportunities you wouldn't have found otherwise 

✅ Reviewing everyone you already know (even if they're from far in the past) to uncover any networking opportunities

✅ Finding any offline conferences/events you can attend (with a plan to make a great impression)

요즘 취업 시장에 대한 솔직한 현실 하나 😐

좋은 직무에 지원하고 있다면 ⬇️⬇️⬇️

❌ 이력서를 제출하고 기다리기만 해서는 성공 확률이 매우 낮습니다 ❌

보통 이런 일이 벌어집니다:

❌ 수많은 공고에 지원하지만  
❌ 거의 연락을 받지 못하고  
❌ 수백 개의 지원 중 몇 번의 1차 스크리닝 연락만 받을 뿐, 오퍼까지는 이어지지 않고  
❌ 그 과정에서 가장 크게 남는 결과는 자신감의 하락입니다 😕

2026년에는 이력서를 보내는 것만으로는 부족합니다.

특히 사람들이 아직 당신을 잘 모르는  새로운 국가나 새로운 산업에서 지원하고 있다면 더 그렇습니다.

(이렇게 되지 않았으면 좋겠지만, 이것이 지금 우리가 마주한 현실입니다)

그렇다면 2026년에 실제로 효과적인 것은 무엇일까요?

해당 회사 안에 최소 한 명의 관계를 만드는 것입니다 🤝

당신을 알고 있고, 호감을 가지고 있으며  (가능하다면) 채용팀에 당신을 추천해 줄 수 있는 사람입니다.

이것이 제가 이력서 개선을 프로그램의 일부로만 두는 이유 중 하나입니다.

이력서를 잘 보이게 만드는 것은 기본입니다.  하지만 동시에 그 ‘한 명의 관계’를 만들기 위해 할 수 있는 모든 것을 함께 합니다 🤝

✅ 관심 있는 회사에서 연락해야 할 적절한 사람을 찾고 
✅ 온라인에서는 절대 찾기 어려운 기회를 가진 헤드헌터들과 연결하고  
✅ 과거의 인연까지 포함해, 이미 알고 있는 모든 사람을 다시 살펴 네트워킹 기회를 찾고  
✅ 좋은 인상을 남길 수 있도록 계획을 세워 오프라인 컨퍼런스나 이벤트에 참여합니다

단순한 ‘이력서 팁’ 그 이상으로,  이런 전략들이야말로 당신이 마땅히 얻어야 할 기회로 이어집니다 🤝

When we started working together, he was worried. 

❌ All his experiences were at small startups. 
❌ The projects felt tiny compared to global companies.

But...when presented correctly, this 'weakness' is also has an advantage. 

𝗔𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽𝘀:
• He managed many different parts of the projects
• He had to think of, test, and execute his own ideas
• His work had a direct impact on the business

𝗦𝗼, 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝗳: 

❌ 'I've only worked at small companies on small projects'.

𝗪𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻: 

✅ 'Here are all the different responsibilities I managed in a short amount of time, which created this measurable impact and value.' 

How you explain your experiences can sometimes matter even more than the experiences themselves.

물론입니다. 원문의 구조·강조·임팩트를 그대로 살려 자연스럽게 한국어로 옮겼어요 👇
 
 
신입 대졸자.  글로벌 기업 𝟱곳에서 인터뷰 🌏  이 결과를 만들기 위해 적용한 단 하나의 핵심 변화 ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
 
 
그의 기존 인턴십 및 업무 경험을 완전히 재구성했습니다.
 
처음 함께 일하기 시작했을 때, 그는 걱정이 많았습니다.
 
❌ 모든 경력이 작은 스타트업에서의 경험뿐이었고  
❌ 글로벌 기업에 비하면 프로젝트 규모가 너무 작아 보였기 때문입니다.
 
하지만…  올바르게 전달하면, 이 ‘약점’은 오히려 강점이 될 수 있습니다.
 
그 스타트업들에서 그는:  • 프로젝트의 여러 영역을 동시에 관리했고  • 자신의 아이디어를 직접 기획·테스트·실행해야 했으며  • 업무 결과가 비즈니스에 직접적인 영향을 미쳤습니다
 
그래서 우리는 이렇게 말하는 대신:
 
❌ “저는 작은 회사에서 작은 프로젝트만 해봤어요.”
 
이렇게 바꿨습니다:
 
✅ “짧은 시간 안에 다양한 책임을 맡았고,  그 결과 측정 가능한 성과와 가치를 만들어냈습니다.”
 
같은 경험이라도,  어떻게 설명하느냐가  때로는 경험 그 자체보다 더 중요합니다.
 
구직자로서 당신의 최고의 모습을 보여주고 싶다면,  방법은 여기 있습니다 ⬇️  https://lnkd.in/gb4ytc6X

1️⃣ She's a fantastic Business Operations professional with a ton of value to offer

2️⃣ She learned how to show all her unique value through her LinkedIn profile & networking

If all you do as a global jobseeker is edit your resume, click 'easy apply' and wait...you'll probably be waiting forever.

Awesome work, Abby! So happy you enjoy where you're at now. Loved getting to help you find your perfect next career step here in the US 🇺🇸 🤝

🎉 Abby는 ‘Apply’를 끝없이 누르지 않고도
미국에서 첫 직장을 얻었습니다 🇺🇸

대신, 채용 담당자들이 먼저 그녀에게 연락을 했죠.
그 이유는 바로 ⬇️

1️⃣ Abby는 높은 가치를 가진 훌륭한 Business Operations 전문가였고

2️⃣ 자신의 고유한 강점과 가치를
LinkedIn 프로필과 네트워킹을 통해 효과적으로 보여주는 방법을 배웠기 때문입니다

글로벌 취업을 준비하면서 당신이 하는 일이
• 이력서를 조금 고치고
• “Easy Apply”를 누르고
• 그저 기다리는 것뿐이라면

…아마 아주 오래 기다리게 될지도 모릅니다.

능동적인 태도, 눈에 띄는 LinkedIn 프로필, 그리고 전략적인 네트워킹은
아무리 훌륭한 이력서보다도
더 많은 기회를 만들어 줄 수 있습니다 🤝

정말 멋진 결과였어요, Abby!
지금의 자리에서 만족하고 있다니 너무 기쁘고,
미국에서의 다음 커리어 스텝을 함께 찾을 수 있어 정말 즐거웠습니다 😌

Earning a Role She Loves in the USA Through the Power of LinkedIn & Personal Branding

Feels like we’re still early, but the impact is already massive. Curious to hear what you guys think! Especially from people working with AI daily.

Overall, has AI had a good or bad impact on our world so far? 🌎

(한국어 아래 ⬇️) Many communication challenges in global meetings come from culture, not language.   

❌ The solution isn't memorizing more English vocab or having more 'free talking'. 

✅ It's understanding these differences and preparing properly.   

In this video, Jeff O'Dea (30+ years communication coaching experience) and I share some of the best strategies we know for: 

• Making great impressions on global colleagues

• Contributing more in meetings/presentations

• Showing how much of an expert you are 

Hope it helps 🤝!

글로벌 미팅에서 생기는 많은 커뮤니케이션 문제는  언어가 아니라 문화 차이에서 옵니다.

❌ 해결책은 영어 단어를 더 외우거나 ‘프리 토킹’을 더 하는 것이 아닙니다.  

✅ 문화적 차이를 이해하고 제대로 준비하는 것입니다.

이 영상에서  30년 이상 커뮤니케이션 코칭 경험을 가진 Jeff O’Dea와 저는 다음과 같은 전략을 공유합니다:

• 글로벌 동료들에게 좋은 인상을 주는 방법  

• 미팅과 프레젠테이션에서 더 적극적으로 기여하는 방법  

• 자신의 전문성을 명확하게 보여주는 방법

도움이 되길 바랍니다 🤝
