How Our Perceptions Limit the Success of Our Business, with Strategic Communication Coach Evelyn Asher
John Ray: [00:00:00] And hello again, everyone. I’m John Ray with the Business RadioX, and I’m here with Strategic Communication coach Evelyn Asher. And, Evelyn, you’ve got some thoughts on how our perceptions limit the visibility and success of our business. Can you say more about that?
Evelyn Asher: [00:00:21] Definitely. In our new work environment, John, everything is totally different. And it’s quite exciting as we look forward to 2020. But we can’t bring our old perception into reimagining. So, it’s great to have a team effort, a collaboration where somebody else’s perceptions might ignite something in you that will take your business to a higher level.
Evelyn Asher: [00:01:00] I can just give one example of a client who had intentions of working with her alumni association, contacting them and other people she had worked with at the university. She was an engineer. However, taking the time through coaching, to sit down and work on that, to explore that together, came up with at least 15 new ideas that she could build on in less than ten minutes time of exploring that website together. The website that shows the growth of that department since she was last there, let’s say, 13 years ago.
