How would your life change if you were to become an exceptional communicator?
This week I had the chance to sit down and have a fun chat with Brenden Kumarasamy. Brenden is the founder of MasterTalk, he coaches ambitious executives & entrepreneurs to become the top 1% communicators in their industry. He also has a popular YouTube channel called MasterTalk, with the goal of providing free access to communication tools for everyone in the world.
In this episode, We spoke about the value of communication, ways to improve at public speaking, and the challenges faced by South Asian immigrants in corporate leadership. Brenden even let me test out his random word exercise which was quite entertaining.
