Being the Expert Does Not Make You Interesting (or Understood)

"Being the Expert Does Not Make You Interesting (or Understood)" 

Speaker: Glenn S. Phillips, author of "Nerd to English"

We are all a “Nerd” about something, as we are all subject matter experts on our work, family, pets, and even sports and hobbies.

When training, coaching, selling, or working on projects, expertise is valuable. But sharing highly specific information with people that don’t have our expertise is often a struggle or failure (even if no one is brave or candid enough to admit it).

Most people think this struggle is a complex terminology problem, but it is really something very different. As an entrepreneur, engineer, management consultant, and writer, Glenn Phillips takes lessons he’s learned the hard way to show you how to communicate better. These are not tricks; these are easy to remember tips about human nature that can help you find greater success in the classroom and business.
