Got an important meeting, presentation or difficult conversation coming up in English? Feeling nervous or questioning whether you're ready?As a senior manager, communicating confidently in English isn't just about having the right vocabulary or technical language. There's also the mental side of it. Managing nerves, dealing with pressure and having the courage to push yourself forward. In this first episode of my Coach in Your Pocket series, I'm sharing my practical coaching tips and research-backed insights to help you manage anxiety, stop overthinking and prepare with more confidence. I hope it's useful. Anna
