One of the things I love about my work is its diversity. This past week I delivered webinars to global, North American, national and local audiences. Fun, right?
What stood out for me was the similarity in the feedback on all of these presentations. The same word was used time after time by those in attendance. I’m delighted by this recognition; it honours the very core of “The Phone Lady”. This week I’m sharing it with you.
What’s the one word that audiences are using to describe my work? And how can it apply to you?
The one word is ‘practical’, as in, “Everything you’ve shared with us today, Mary Jane, is so practical.” Yup, that’s my aim. Below please find four of my most popular practical tips that you can start using right now.
