Magnetic Communication
The Magnetic Communication Podcast helps you to quickly improve your communication skills in your professional and personal relationships. When it comes to communication, we all tend to think we’re pretty good at it. But most of us have not been trained. We can speak with someone every day and still communicate badly. Anyone married?!
Every week, listeners get simple communication tips including body language cues, listening tools, conflict resolution, self-talk and workplace communication training to use right away to connect better.
I’m Sandy Gerber, your host. I’m a Certified Communication Trainer, Keynote Speaker, Best-Selling Author, and TEDx Speaker. As a single mom, I’ve owned three successful businesses, grew my agency from my bedroom to a Top 100 Fastest Growing Company with magnetic communication, and after two failed marriages (and 20 years of communication training), married my prince charming and we’ve been happy for 11 years. I also count winning a limbo contest at 14 as one of my greatest achievements.
Real, helpful, and engaging, this show helps people to feel more confident and successful in their communication.
