346 - Power, Confidence and the Courage to Speak Up with Matthew Hill
Do you dare to be powerful and confident? Matthew Hill, leadership trainer, conflict mediator, and intercultural facilitator has spent years guiding executives into their inner strength – but his approach might just surprise you.
He invites us to reconsider power not as the most dominant voice in the room, but rather a calm, curious presence, and confidence not as something we muster up once, but a daily practice of small, intentional acts.
From meeting difference with meaningful dialogue, and digging a little deeper beneath the surface of our interactions, to reclaiming our voice – episode 346 is for anyone ready to remove the obstacles standing in the way of their self-belief.
Find out about:
- The cultural nuances of facilitation and learning
- How to build confidence through daily micromoments, such as ‘adding one sentence’
- How to approach opposing views with curiosity, genuine dialogue, and a desire to learn
- How facilitators can use language to foster inclusivity, rather than widen divides
