Mohammed Qahtani won the Toastmasters World Championship of Public Speaking. It’s easy to see why. Please watch his speech. Words have power. Words can be our power. Words can unite or divide. Words can spit venom or can mend a broken soul. Words matter.

How to give feedback without being a jerk: 1. Be a coach, not a critic. Aim to help, not attack. 2. Don't assert opinion as fact. You're sharing your subjective reaction, not the objective truth. 3. Be honest, not brutal. Be direct in what you say, but kind in how you say it.

Strong relationships don’t need agreement. They need alignment. Agreement is having identical opinions. Alignment is having shared values. Agreement is taking the same path. Alignment is heading in the same direction. Closeness is a matter of commitment, not consensus.

Conclusions cloud connection. Suspend conclusions to stay curious when communicating. Make it real, make it clear, make it meaningful. What have you concluded before you even connect? Set it aside then speak. #connection #trust #communicatetoconnect #thebizofbeing

Most passports end today. Passports dehumanized millions of Canadians. They don't prevent transmission & didn't prevent lockdowns. They are not based on science, but politics of fear & division. They are a stain on our history. We will keep fighting mandates. #onpoli #cdnpoli

What would it take for us all to stop assuming we’re right all the time?! Get more curious and open?
