Take a moment before your next important conversation. Pay attention to how much time you spend preparing your report, spreadsheet, or presentation slides compared to the actual words you will use.
Think about the first words you will say at the start of the conversation…and the final words you will end with to increase the probability you will get what you want.
I wrote my third book because executives I work with kept sharing the results they achieved when they used the words I suggested they use in board rooms, on stage, and in conversations with their teams, bosses and investors. You can hear their feedback below.
Ask yourself:
Do you wish you had more truth tellers at your company?
Do you wonder how to effectively share feedback to increase performance?
Do you wish you could confidently step on stage and engage your audience?
Do you want to learn how to prepare and deliver great media interviews?
Do you wonder how you can be true to your own purpose and values in how you lead?
Those are some of the many questions that get answered in Words That Work: Communicate Your Purpose, Your Performance, and Your Profit.
But don’t listen to me, listen to what these executives have to say:
“As the CEO of my own STREAM foundation and creator of STEM-based cooking classes & workshops, the advice in this book is super valuable. It is full of new ways of how to put your customers at the heart of your company, manage your external media relationships, and lead with purpose, heart, and passion. As a 16 year old business owner, this book gives me the playbook for continuing to grow my business to new heights! Your work, advice, and tools are priceless information for any business entrepreneur. “
Simone Bridges, CEO Goddess Food Factory, Founder Simone Bridges Inspires Inc
“Val has made the ultimate guide to business communication. “Words that Work” is full of suggestions and alternative statements that open up communication. I am excited to have this new tool that will help me improve my ability to ask questions and affirm what others are saying.”
Rachel Canales, Chief of Staff, Lenovo Global Accounts/Chief Customer Advocate
“Val Wright has been an immensely valuable strategic advisor to me surrounding innovation and leadership through acquisitions and an IPO. I have considered her previous books required reading for any executive responsible for leading people through growth and change, and her clear, insightful voice will put her new book on the top of my recommended reading list. In her characteristic style, Val provides candid advice every leader needs to navigate innovation, communicate with impact, harness emotions, and actively manage external and internal communications. The easy-to-read format addresses the many situations executives will go through when they are asked to create outcomes that stretch beyond the current trajectory of the business.”
John Schneider, Chief Marketing Officer, Betterworks

Susan Potter, Vice President of Digital Experience, Hootsuite
“This book is a culmination of Val’s wise counsel she has given me over the last few years. Just the right words at the exact right moment.
