Never underestimate the power of a single ask! Asks made from a leadership stance can be life-changing. In this episode, Leadership Coach Deb Elbaum shares the 4 key pieces of making an effective ask. She also shares a powerful personal story illustrating how a confident, well-placed ask can have a ripple effect across time.
