About Sharon
Sharon Sayler, MBA, CEC, principal and founder of Competitive Edge Comunications
I show you how to use words to change minds and behaviors to change outcomes. As a behavioral communications expert, certified executive coach and founder of Competitive Edge Communications, I support women leaders to develop your skills of confident communication by showing you how understanding your verbal and nonverbal communications, gender differences in communication, and clear boundaries and expectations brings out your natural charismatic leadership style.
The What
How we communicate, both verbally and nonverbally, is the foundation for your leadership and relationships…. Most consultants only talk about the what. I’ve learned you are pretty good at knowing what you want to say already. It’s the HOW and WHY that needs tweaking. Feel the difference when you say out-loud "I want to talk to you." or "I want to talk with you." Small changes make significant impacts.
"Sharon, Chris and I are amazed that those simple changes can make of world of difference in how we communicate. Thank you." ~ C. Cannella
Get those meaningful relationships and become the leader who achieves the influence at the table you desire and get the end results you want. By using simple and easy to learn verbal and behavior changes, see how easy it is to make a dramatic difference in your leadership, team work, relationships and communications.
"Your approach worked like a charm! It was fabulous having a very easy mental “flow chart” directing me what path to choose in speaking with them after a brief introduction…." ~ Debbie Cason, Manager of Client Services, Macroeconomic Advisers
As the published author of three books, my latest book released by John Wiley and Sons, What Your Body Says and How to Master the Message, has been published in 5 languages since its publication last year. It is suggested reading in universities around the world. I was honored to be recently voted one of 50 authors you should be reading in 2011.
"Sharon is a masterful speaker with warmth, depth and a wealth of knowledge. She keeps the audience engaged through humor, insights, and dynamic speaking. Her suggestions and ideas have been valuable to me in my career and personal development. I highly recommend Sharon." ~ Denny Stockdale, Stockdale Resource Group
As a "sought after" speaker, trainer and executive one-to-one and group coach, I cover a broad range of success subjects, all based in respectful communication: verbal and nonverbal, gender and learning style differences in communication, conflict, boundaries and expectations, leadership, team building, and why people and groups behave the way they do.
"I’m having fun with the techniques you’ve provided thus far. I seem to have diffused several incidents – surprising." ~ L.O’Brien
