Are you being ignored by your team? Are you trusted by those you lead? Is it a challenge to get organizational buy-in no matter what you try? You might be tempted to think the problem is everyone else, but a breakdown in communication is often linked to a leader's behavior and approach. In short, it's not the culture that's the problem-it's that nobody believes you. Business communications strategist Jenni Field knows what it's like to help leaders get out of their own way. From working with creative entrepreneurs to C-suite executives at Fortune 500 companies, she's learned over the years that the number one challenge for most organizations is not a question of engagement but of credibility. When nobody believes you, almost everything feels like a wrestling match. When everybody believes you, almost anything becomes possible. This book will help you become the kind of leader people want to follow and be the credible leader your team needs.
