Business Communication: Stop Being Overlooked at Work
Thu, Jul 16, 4:00 PM**You are doing the work. But are the right people seeing the value of it?** **In a difficult economy, being good at what you do is not enough. People are making decisions all the time: who gets trusted, promoted, referred, hired, renewed, funded, or invited into the next room.** **If your value is not clear in those moments, the cost is real.** **You get passed over. Your ideas get credited to someone else. Clients question your rate. Managers miss your contribution. You leave important conversations with vague promises instead of a clear next step.** **This workshop helps you make your value visible without sounding defensive, arrogant, or aggressive.** **Small group of max 20. You need working English to participate.** **This is for you if** * You deliver results but the recognition goes to someone else * You are doing more than people realise, but struggle to say it clearly * You over-explain, soften, or freeze in important conversations * You want to be taken seriously by managers, clients, partners, stakeholders, or decision-makers * You are preparing for a review, pitch, interview, promotion, raise, rate, or business conversation **What you leave with** * A framework to make your value clear * Your own real situation prepared and ready to use * Scripts for stating your contribution * Responses for pushback, dismissal, or vague answers * Practice saying it out loud in a small group * A follow-up email with the scripts and tools from the session **About the host:** Sumita Kar is the founder of Take a Brava Leap (TABL), based in Berlin. She spent 13 years building her career across global teams, moving from associate level to Vice President across customer success, cross-cultural leadership, C-level client management, high-stakes escalations, negotiations, and commercial execution. In 2023 she was recognised as one of the Top 10 Best Indian Women Leaders from Germany by Women's Entrepreneur Magazine. She has navigated these rooms as an international woman where she was often the only one. She built this session so you don't have to figure it out the way she did.

If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. 🙌 **📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?** We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want to. **🕹 HOW TO JOIN?** **[Take 1 minute to sign up 👈](https://luma.com/berlinftstsix)** 🔗 On your phone and can't click?

Get to the heart of the matter, dive straight into what really counts!” - Matthias 🗣 “F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Monika 🗣 “I loved F\*ck the Small Talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - Brenda 🗣 "It’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara [Check out our 130+ Google reviews here](https://www.google.com/maps/place/EPIC+LLAMA/@29.4255256,-41.3746386,3z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xf758abc88e22289c!8m2!3d29.4255256!4d-41.3746386?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiAydX55IP9AhWWQjABHejpCCkQ_BJ6BAhWEAg&coh=164777&entry=tt&shorturl=1)[ ](https://goo.gl/maps/TpZy77bfPFkGoikn7)💛 *(these are real humans, we promise!)* **🤓 FAQ** **• What's the age range?** Most people who come to our events are between 24 and 40 years old.
