We’ve been talking about building teams and communicating clearly for a while now. This week, I talk with the G.O.A.T of clear communication. 

What you’ll find In this episode:

  • How to talk under pressure: Water, lozenges and tongue twisters.
  • A universal structure to “talk smart” no matter what’s asked of you or when.
  • The “grandmother test” and how to curb the curse of passion.

We also talk about anxiety, the legion of #BOOM and give a nod to Dan Pink, Nancy Duarte and Kim Scott. 

Bruno Aziza is a technology entrepreneur and partner at CapitalG, Alphabet’s independent growth fund.
