As leaders we have a platform and opportunity to use our voice and our influence, whether we like it or not. In this episode we explore how and when you might choose to use your voice.

We share our own views, thoughts and experiences:

• 5:37 – representing what matters
• 8:23 – what does it mean to have a voice?
• 13:53 – individual v. organisational views
• 28:14 – testing alignment
• 36:56 – persistent and consistent
• 39:01 How to…make your voice count

As always, we share our top takeaways to help you make your voice count. This week it’s about understanding what matters most to you and your people so you can determine how and where you can use your voice as a leader. Don’t try to be perfect and lean into the discomfort that might come with some of this.

In this episode we reference the Edelman Trust Barometer 2023.
