[00:00:00]how to talk like an executive is to flourish with ambiguity. Because as you move up the so-called corporate ladder, as you become promoted, as you become a senior executive, you're going to be making more and more decisions with less and less information. That's just the industry. That's just the field that you're going to be in. And as a result of that, there's greater and greater ambiguity. Well, think about it. As soon as you let a team, there's more ambiguity to navigate in terms of people's behaviors, how people react to your directions, right? Greater ambiguity in all areas of your career, in all the areas of the of the processes that you manage at work. And so it will be important for you to flourish in ambiguity. Not to wish it away, not to wish that things were easier, but to be able to flourish in it and recognize that this is part and parcel of it. And one of the most important ways to flourish in it is to create certainty within yourself and for yourself and by yourself.
