Episode Details
Back to Episodes299. Decode Business Phrases: No More “What Does That Mean?”
Description
The last Decode episode was really popular so I wanted to expand to a new mini series throughout this season. If you’ve ever been in a meeting and thought, “Wait… what does that phrase actually mean?” this episode is for you. Let me take you through a list of common business expressions you’ll hear across companies and industries. You’ll learn what they mean, how they’re used, and the origin of the phrase. That will mean that next time, you can follow the conversation and won't have to wonder what it means! Enjoy. Anna

I only work with a small number of 1:1 clients at a time so I can keep the coaching highly personalised. Places are limited and often fully booked, but you can join the interest list to be the first to hear when a space opens up.
