Hi everyone, Bill Storm here from the Lessons in Leadership Podcast. Recently, I had the pleasure of hosting Michelle Tillis Lederman, a true expert in workplace communication and relationships. Michelle has been named one of Forbes' Top 25 Networking Experts and one of the Top 30 Communication Professionals by Global Gurus.

Michelle is also the author of four books, including the internationally known, The 11 Laws of Likability, and her latest The Connectors Advantage.

A former finance executive and NYU Professor, Michelle is a regular in the media appearing on NBC, CBS, Fox, NPR, the Wall Street Journal, NY Times, CNBC, and others. Michelle is known for helping people work better together and advance their individual impact.

In our conversation, Michelle unpacked the concept of "Connected Leadership," a relationship-first approach to leadership that drives productivity, engagement, and results. Here are some key takeaways and actionable insights from our conversation.
