Last week, I had to present a project update to two groups: executives and the team. I debated whether to prepare one or two presentations. Initially, I considered making just one since it's the same project. But knowing that communication needs to resonate with each audience, I created two tailored versions. Before communicating, assess your audience's needs and interests: ✨Assess Information Needs: Know what they truly need to hear. ✨Tailor the Content: Adapt your message to their context and preferences. ✨Understand the Audience: Some prefer directness, others enjoy more conversation.

If there's one thing my 2024 is driven by, it's experimentation. I've always used an experimental and agile approach to opportunity discovery and problem-solving, but I realized how often teams and companies I worked with pushed this aside, thinking, "This isn't necessary." Trust me, it is. It helps you stand apart, find new audiences, align with EXISTING audiences, and stay afloat in uncertainty. So, I've done us all a favor and compiled starter tips, tools, and tricks for anyone tapping into their experimental side this year. 👉👉👉 https://lnkd.in/dvAc4ej8 #experimentation #leadership #tools
