Description

Most leaders don’t lose clients, revenue, or top talent because of strategy.

They lose them because of miscommunication, unclear expectations, and conversations that never happen...or don’t land the way they should.

Welcome to Fix the Conversation, the podcast for leaders, executives, and high-performers who want to communicate with clarity, confidence, and impact.

Hosted by Heather Lisle, communication strategist, keynote speaker, and founder of The Leadership Lab, this podcast gives you the tools to handle the conversations that directly impact your team performance, client relationships, and bottom line.

With over two decades of experience working with professional services firms, executives, and leadership teams, Heather is known for helping leaders quickly identify communication breakdowns and fix them before it costs results.

Each episode is short, practical, and focused on real-world scenarios, including:

  •  How to handle difficult conversations at work 
  •  How to improve leadership communication and executive presence 
  •  How to communicate effectively with different communication styles 
  •  How to prevent miscommunication and misunderstandings 
  •  How to strengthen team dynamics and retain top talent 
  •  How to navigate client conversations, feedback, and conflict 

You’ll walk away with simple frameworks, real examples, and language you can use immediately so you can stop second-guessing what to say and start leading conversations that drive results.

Because when you fix the conversation, you fix the outcome.
