How can you address feedback effectively with freelancers to enhance collaboration and project outcomes?
The more you can make a freelancer feel like they're a part of the team, the better. Invite them to planning sessions and brainstorms. Have them at your all-hands, if you're comfortable! More context leads to greater success.

How can you address feedback effectively with freelancers to enhance collaboration and project outcomes?
I love it when freelancers ask what success looks like. If they don't, you should tell them! Not just short term wins, but you should tell them what the long-term goal is, no matter how audacious, so they can build toward it.

How can humor enhance your leadership effectiveness?
A sense of humor tells your team that you’re approachable. You’re more likely to hear bad news before it’s catastrophic. You’re more likely to be viewed as a leader your team admires. Humor is also an effective tool in storytelling. If you’re hosting an all hands or trying to win a customer, they’ll often remember the points you made more clearly if punctuated by a laugh every so often. Lastly, top people have a lot of choices about where they work. They want to win, but many also want to have fun doing it.

How can you help less experienced colleagues in Internal Communications succeed?
Understanding the customer is key to all marketing and comms work. In the case of internal comms, that customer consists of the team itself. Having great relationships across the entire organization, representing their perspectives at the leadership level, and communicating according to the team’s needs — these are all important skills to build.
