Description

Project management isn’t just Gantt charts and timelines. It’s the way you talk about the work. In 2026, the leaders who rise fastest will be the ones who can communicate the clearest: what’s done, what’s stuck, and what needs to change without drama or defensiveness. That’s the heart of this episode.

Turn project updates into leadership moments: using “on track/off track” as standard language, giving status updates that are crisp and actionable, and cutting the rambling that quietly erodes your credibility. You’ll hear how to ask sharper questions without putting people on edge, and how to make escalation feel safe, expected, and part of how high-performing teams operate.

Strong project communication builds trust, accelerates progress, and prevents surprises. It’s one of the clearest signals that you’re ready for bigger responsibilities and a core theme inside the Speak by Design University program.
