Confident Business English

What would more confidence actually allow you to do? In this epsiode on The Confidence Session series, I invite you to look beyond confidence itself and explore what it can lead to in your career and life. This is especially useful if you are lacking motivation or have had a difficult experience with English recently. We’ll also look how the words you use before a high-pressure situation could influence how you perform.

What actually makes you take action when you feel confident? In this Confidence Session, I continue breaking down how confidence works by looking at two important beliefs: “I can do it” and “it can happen.” We’ll explore what happens when one of those is missing, why feeling nervous doesn’t necessarily mean you lack confidence, and what this could look like in your meetings, presentations and career.  Enjoy!

What actually is confidence, and why can you feel confident in one situation but completely doubt yourself in another? In this Confidence Session, we look at the science behind confidence, what your brain is predicting and why building it isn't always as simple as practicing more. Enjoy! Anna
