The first conversation you have with someone can set the tone for your future relationship. But how do you make sure you're connecting and communicating effectively right from the start?

Welcome to The Matt Phillips Podcast! In this episode, I interview Lou Diamond. Lou is known for helping people and businesses connect better. He's an expert speaker, mentor, author, and the Founder of a company called Thrive.

In this podcast episode, Lou talks about how important it is to connect and communicate with people, something he learned from his father that changed his approach in leading his business and his team. He also discussed the difference between “connecting” and “networking” in building a long-term relationship.

And most important, you will learn how companionship and community are central to human life!

We will touch on the following topics:

Why the real connection matters in leadership
Your communication skills are your biggest skills
How being curious and asking good questions make you an effective leader
Lou’s book: “Speak Easy: Connect with Every Conversation”
The importance of your energy in having a conversation
You have to show UP when you wanted to have a good conversation
