Ep 3 - When silence is your power

Podcast episode
Written By Rob Bialostocki

What this episode is about

To help others thrive, to influence for good, and to lead for personal and company growth, consciously choosing silence can be very effective at times. Just because you know, doesn’t mean you have to say. You can choose to let others have the limelight.

Listen

Key points

  • Loud, dominant people think they’re being awesome, but they’re not really.

  • Most people are poor listeners because they dive in too much (me included at times!)

  • Staying silent can help others think, grow and be seen.

  • You need to exercise significant self-control to do this well.

  • Sometimes, it’s wiser not to speak.
