Episode 17 - Dave Trzebiatowski on The Lost Art of Communication

In this episode of Lead Well. Live Whole., Michael Sirmon sits down with Dave Trzebiatowski to explore why genuine communication has become a “lost art” in today’s fast-paced, technology-driven world. From his early experiences building connections in high school to his career in sales and leadership, Dave shares how empathy, curiosity, and mindfulness transform conversations at work and at home. Together, they discuss how leaders can avoid the trap of “listening to respond,” break down complex ideas with clarity, and create cultures where people feel valued and understood.

This candid conversation dives into the role of communication in leadership, culture, and even family life—reminding us that people may forget what we said, but they’ll always remember how we made them feel.
