Can You Hear Me, or Am I on Mute?!
Based on UnMuted Leader: Lead So They Listen
Speaker: Trisha Zulic, SHRM-SCP
Ever left a meeting knowing you had the right insight, but somehow your voice never made it into the decision?
That experience has a name: being muted. In this session, we’ll define what “muting” looks like in real workplaces, how to recognize when you are being sidelined, and the subtle ways high performers sometimes self mute to stay safe, liked, or “easy to work with.”
Grounded in the UnMuted Leader framework, you’ll learn practical strategies to interrupt the pattern in the moment, rebuild executive presence without becoming someone you are not, and return to the table with clarity, confidence, and influence.
You’ll leave with language you can use, moves you can practice, and a new way to protect your voice in rooms where it matters.
