You're managing a remote team. What are the best internal communication software tools to use?
We use google/zoom for calls - the important thing about staying in synch with the team isn't the tool, but the team's investment in staying connected. This means every team member needs to be well prepped before the call to make the call efficient and fruitful. Everyone needs to have their cameras on even for internal calls. Everyone needs to take notes. There needs to be a call leader who sets the agenda. We also use firelies (note taker tool) to document the call. Their ai has done a good job with summarising the calls. Essentially, we need to treat internal calls the same way we treat external calls - with the same prep, the same intention, and attention. Thats when the team will really be in synch.

You’re organizing a nonprofit event. What are the best leadership tools to make it a success?
Make sure you have an A-team that is taking care of everything backstage so that you can focus on playing host. As a leader and main host of the event, you need to be there well before anyone shows up. Your energy will set the pace of the event. Keep reminding yourself to create a really memorable experience for your guests - its not about you or your org - its about creating a memorable experience so that they come back to you and engage with you long after the event.

What are the most effective ways to help your mentee develop public speaking skills?
1. If possible, study your audience beforehand - who are they? where are they from? what do they do? what do they know? This isn't always possible, especially with larger groups, but for smaller audiences I even go into their linkedin profile and do a quick read. Quick tip - throwing out a few names addressing someone in the audience in the middle of your talk really personalises the session. 2. Know the space before hand - study the room and try to have control on seemingly small things like the room temperature, smell, light, seating - all of this will help keep people engaged. 3. Practice! Rehearse as much as you can, including one in the actual room so that you know where to look, where to walk etc.
