Linguistic Inclusion - Show Up, Speak Up and Take Action! with Heather Hansen #74
In the episode, Nick Day is joined on The HR L&D Podcast sofa by Global Communication Consultant, TEDx Speaker, Trainer and Author Heather Hansen!
Heather helps top global leaders show up, speak up, and inspire action in today’s rapidly changing world.
Heather’s passion is focused on fostering unmuted communication cultures where every voice is heard, resulting in greater inclusion, innovation and efficiency across remote and global teams. Something we are equally passionate about here on the HR L&D Podcast!
Heather is the Founder and Managing Director of Global Speech Academy, a communication training and consulting firm headquartered in Singapore, and she is on a mission!
Her mission is to empower global voices to contribute to conversations that matter – in business, politics, and life. She believes that it is only through conscious, confident, and connected communication that we can achieve our collective potential and peacefully solve the world’s greatest challenges.
Heather is an outspoken advocate for global voices and linguistic inclusion, as demonstrated by her popular 2018 TEDx talk titled "2 Billion Voices: How to speak bad English perfectly," – which is why Nick was excited to invite Heather to the show!
We also discuss Heather's latest book: Unmuted: How to Show Up, Speak Up, and Inspire Action. And we will delve more into that a little bit later on in the show.
