A conversation with Admired Leadership Managing Director Kristen Fenty and Wes Bender from CRA | Admired Leadership, exploring how leaders can cut through complexity and communicate with the clarity that drives alignment and decision-making. Drawing from real client examples including a pharmaceutical marketing leader who carried a 63-slide deck to every meeting, this session reveals why expertise can work against you when you lead with it, and provides a practical framework for speaking in headlines that create clarity rather than confusion. Kristen shares specific coaching techniques for building the daily habit of headline thinking and navigating high-stakes moments from boardroom presentations to hallway conversations.
