Communicate with Power, Poise & Pizzazz Webinar!

January 27, 2026 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (EST)

Description

Let’s face it, communication breakdowns are like potholes on the highway of business: they slow us down, cause damage, and make the ride bumpy. But here’s the good news: with just a few sparkling shifts, we can turn those breakdowns into breakthroughs and even have fun doing it! Whether you're navigating tight timelines, shifting staffing, or vendor hiccups, the biggest game-changer is clear, courageous communication.

Empower your people to speak up, show up, and sparkle in this free, knowledge-packed session, presented by Lois Barth, a Human Development Expert, Speaker, Life and Business Coach, and Author.

Why This Workshop?

  • Because every operator, vendor, and team member deserves to:
  • Feel heard, not just herded
  • Say what they mean, and mean what they say—without starting a five alarm fire.
  • Break through the fear of “tough talks” and actually look forward to them. 
  • And yes, we’ll toss in a few fun tips on public speaking too--because everyone gets sweaty palms sometimes!

The 4 C’s: Your GPS to Communicate with Power, Poise, and Pizzazz Here’s what each “C” delivers:

  1. Curiosity: Move from Criticism to Curiosity. Ask more! Assume less! Results? Fewer conflicts, more collaboration.
  2. Compassion: Step into their shoes—vendors, teammates, customers—so everyone feels seen, not steamrolled.
  3. Connection: Learn how to build bridges, not wedges, with every conversation. This is where silos transform into communities.
  4. Courage: Lean into becoming “beautifully honest,” where being kind and honest are good dance partners, don’t have two left feet, or step on each other’s toes.

Takeaways:

  • Tools to handle tough conversations with confidence, poise, and heart.
  • Using genuine curiosity as a bridge to collaboration, connection, and team engagement.
  • Confidence to speak clearly and lead powerfully—even under pressure
  • A communication culture that celebrates connection over criticism.

Bottom Line? Less confusion. More clarity. And a team that actually wants to talk to each other. Because when communication sparkles, everything moves smoothly— especially in transportation.
