World-renowned leadership expert John C. Maxwell says, "If you want to succeed, you must learn how to connect with people." While it may seem like some folks are just born with it, the fact is anyone can learn how to make every communication an opportunity for a powerful connection. "Can You Hear Me Now?" will focus on Five Principles and Five Practices to develop the crucial skill of connecting.

Participants will learn how to get their message across by building a bridge to others. Cultivating relationships is every bit as important to effective communication as crafting the message. Participants will also learn that the insightful principles are critical to understand if you desire to forge a lasting bond with those around you. They will be able to better prepare to apply these principles and practices in private conversations or group presentations. Learning these principles and connecting practices will give audience members an edge as a leader.
