Mastering Organizational Communication: The Power of Repetition

Join Yvette as she explores this phenomenon and why repetition is a critical part of communication and leadership.

Setting Realistic Goals With Yvette Bethel

When decision-makers set goals that seem impossible to achieve, it is important to take a step back and recalibrate.

They may do this because they aim to help you to stretch beyond your previous best performance.

Sometimes this happens because you and your team have been able to achieve the more difficult goals at great sacrifice, and because you have proven that it can be done, the goals for the next few years prove to be even more difficult.

The more you achieve, the more is expected of you.
