#621 Master Leadership Communication with the Relationship GPS Model with Laura Watson

Is your leadership communication building trust—or quietly eroding it?

In this insightful episode of Talking with the Experts, host Rose Davidson is joined by veteran business coach Laura Watson, who reveals how the quality of your communication determines the quality of your relationships—both in business and in life.

Laura introduces her powerful Relationship GPS model, a practical communication framework that helps leaders navigate their conversations with clarity, intention, and empathy. Whether you're managing a team, nurturing a partnership, or leading clients, knowing which communication skills to use (and when) is the secret to long-term relational success.

Here’s what we cover in this episode:

• What the Relationship GPS is and how it can transform the way you communicate.
• How to identify the “zone” of a relationship and tailor your communication accordingly.
• Why positive feedback is essential to building connection, motivation, and trust.
• How leaders often default to the wrong communication approach and how to shift for better results.

Laura also shares practical tips to:

• Strengthen emotional intelligence and self-awareness in high-stress situations.
• Use feedback as a leadership tool rather than a checkbox.
• Improve team culture by being present, honest, and strategic in how you communicate.

What makes Laura’s approach unique is her whole-person coaching philosophy—she knows that leaders don’t leave their personal struggles at the door. From business growth to navigating infidelity, addiction, or parenting challenges, she helps people communicate with courage, compassion, and clarity.

Whether you're an emerging entrepreneur or a seasoned executive, Laura’s insights will help you lead with your words and connect with your people on a whole new level.

🎧 Tune in now and transform your communication—one relationship at a time.
