Communication

At Level 1, communication is focused on clarity, responsiveness, and learning to express technical work in a team environment. You're developing the habit of sharing your progress, asking questions when you're blocked, and keeping the right people in the loop. Your messages might still be a little raw or awkward, but you’re building confidence. The most important thing is that you're communicating—and growing from the feedback you receive.

Your messages are becoming clearer and more tailored, and you're building trust by showing that you understand and respect others' perspectives.

You're learning to navigate complex conversations and deliver messages that inspire action and collaboration. Your communication is becoming more strategic, and you're building credibility as someone who can lead discussions and resolve conflicts effectively.
