The Communicative Leader

On The Communicative Leader, we're making your work life what you want it to be. Do you need years of training or special equipment? Not at all my friends. Simple, yet thoughtful changes in your communication can make great strides in displaying your leadership ability. And why the heck should you care about leadership communication? Well, communication is the yardstick others use to determine whether or not they see you as a leader. Ahhh don't be scared, I got you. We will walk through common organizational obstacles and chat about small, but meaningful communication-rooted changes you can integrate immediately. No more waiting for the workplace to become what you hope it will. Nope. You, my friends, will be empowered and equipped to make those changes. Let's have some fun! Can't get enough?

Dr. Leah OH

I’m a leadership communication expert and a professor of organizational communication. I’ve written books, articles, and chapters on leadership communication, workgroup relationships, and team dynamics. I've presented my research worldwide. Whether I’m working with an organization or talking with friends, the underlying question always seems to be the same --- how do I make my workplace what I want it to be? 15 years ago, I left industry for academics to help to explore and offer pragmatic answers to that question. After years of teaching and researching, I am excited to share some tips that I’ve picked up along the way. Guess what? I use these tips too! I'm there with you my friends, navigating complex and sometimes maddening organizations, but we'll walk this walk together, having some fun along the way.
