Truth, Lies & Work is the award-winning psychology podcast from the HubSpot Podcast Network — hosted by Chartered Occupational Psychologist Leanne Elliott and business owner Al Elliott.
This week, we’re joined by Forbes contributor and media founder Dr Cheryl Robinson to explore a skill every leader thinks they’ve mastered — but often haven’t: communication.
From delivering tough messages to owning your impact in the room, Cheryl shares how great communication can elevate your leadership, influence your career, and build meaningful connections at work.
If you’ve ever stumbled through a difficult conversation or wondered why your ideas aren’t landing — this episode is for you.
💡 Key Takeaways from Dr Cheryl Robinson
– Leadership starts with clarity: You don’t need to shout to be heard — you need to know what you want to say and why it matters.
– Authenticity is magnetic: People connect with people — not perfection.
– Feedback is a gift: Learn how to take it, shape it, and use it to grow.
– Visibility matters: If you’re not telling your story, someone else will.
