Why I Speak Less (But Say More): A Leader’s Evolution

True wisdom isn’t about how much we say-it’s about the impact of what we say, and when we say it. Restraint, listening, and thoughtful communication are marks of maturity and strong leadership.

Your journey from outspoken to reflective is a powerful example of this wisdom in action.
