Ep #66: How to Speak Up in the Workplace Anxiety-Free with Ivna Curi

March 15, 2023

Speaking up in the workplace, whether in a meeting or to your boss, is a tightrope walk of the first order. Especially if you’re a minority or a more junior member of your organization, speaking up can feel like you’re navigating shark-invested waters with the possibility of metaphorically getting beheaded in front of everyone. 

If speaking up in the workplace induces stress and anxiety for you, you’re in luck. I’m speaking to Ivna Curi who is the founder of Assertive Way: a company that provides consulting, talks, and workshops on assertive communication speaking up skills for employees and leaders.

Join us this week as Ivna shares her best practices for speaking up in the workplace anxiety-free. She’s sharing the value of speaking up early and often, how this helps you show up more powerfully in all facets of life, and how to become practiced at speaking with conviction and assertiveness while inviting collaboration.
