#0376 – Talking for Change: The Secret Skill Every Leader Needs to Master with Joel Ellis

Deep Leadership · 2025-05-10

Today, Joel Ellis joined me, and we discussed the idea of Talking for Change. After a long career in business leadership roles, Joel entered a new chapter in his life, where he helps other leaders through his coaching and speaking programs. He focuses on assisting middle managers to overcome the typical communication challenges that many leaders face, especially in dealing with change efforts. One of the most critical roles leaders play is helping employees navigate the challenges of change, and Joel is an expert in this arena. I’m excited to have him on the show to learn more about Talking for Change.
