Unlearning Silence

How to speak your mind, unleash talent and lead with courage

Having a seat at the table doesn't mean that your voice gets heard. Knowing something is wrong doesn't make it easy to speak up. But this silencing - intentional or not - has profound consequences on our work and life. It blocks talent, skews decisions and causes teams and individuals to fail. So what if there was another way?

Drawing on her experience as a lecturer at Harvard Law School and as a Managing Partner at one of the world's leading leadership development companies, Elaine Lin Hering delves into the roots of silence, examining the patterns that keep us trapped, and showcases the impact that rewiring unconscious behaviours can have on innovation, creativity and collaboration.

From the boardroom to the classroom, from personal relationships to wider communities, Hering shows us how we can have more authentic conversations, foster inclusive spaces and amplify all voices. Because only by unlearning silence can we fully unleash talent, speak our minds, and be more complete versions of ourselves...and help other people do the same.

Reseñas de la Crítica

A necessary read. Unlearning Silence offers an opportunity and tools to change things within and around us – for ourselves and those we love (Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone)

We cannot heal our world if we do not unlearn silence. An inviting and essential read (Alex Elle, New York Times bestselling author of How We Heal)

Too often, we are told we are the problem. Books tell us to just be more confident. To show up and then speak up. Elaine goes deeper and shows us that the silence we've been indoctrinated by runs deep and it is what holds us back and makes us feel small. A must read for every leader (Deepa Purushothaman, author of The First, The Few, The Only)
