I caught up with a friend and former colleague last week and she commented how much she liked the name of my new business, Composed Communication. “You’re always so calm and composed. It fits you to a T.”

Well I like to think she’s right. But that’s only half the story.

The truth is, I love words. I love to read them. I love to write them. I love how words can be a tender caress, or a punch in the face.

Finding the right words to connect with your audience is an artform. Each word is a carefully considered musical note. Each word has purpose.

A good communicator doesn’t just bang out words on their laptop. They compose stories. They compose music.

So there it is.
