# VO1CE™ — The Art of Being Heard (Full Reference) > VO1CE is a five-step communication framework created by Josie Gammell that transforms how leaders connect, present and inspire. Born from 30+ years of coaching executives, public figures and teams. --- ## About VO1CE After twenty years of coaching executives, leaders and public figures, Josie Gammell distilled every lesson into one system — VO1CE™. It is not a soft skill programme. It is a communication operating system. VO1CE draws from acting, coaching, psychology and behavioural science. It is the roadmap for landing your message with impact every time. Each step builds upon the last, creating a complete system to increase confidence, make connections, ensure clarity, and drive action. Clients include NatWest, Barclays, Santander, NHS and the Financial Times. --- ## The VO1CE Framework — Five Steps ### V — Value Your personal value is unique, unchangeable and irreplaceable. Anchoring in it and the Why of what you're undertaking changes everything about you. It becomes the foundation upon which you move out into the world. ### O — Other Stand in the shoes of the other person before speaking to them. Empathy and imagination will transform the way you interact with others. You vs. Them becomes Us Together. ### 1 — One Thing Identify the immediate objective for your next interaction and write it in a single sentence. Stick to achieving one thing effectively. ### C — Clarity Drive your one message home with no more than three compelling points. Make it memorable by using a metaphor, image or story. ### E — Ending Finish strong and give them a call to action. How do you want the other person to feel when they leave? --- ## Products ### The Book — "VO1CE: The Art of Being Heard" - **Price**: £34.99 - **Format**: Softback, 210 pages - **Publisher**: VO1CE Press - **ISBN**: 978-1-234567-89-0 - **Shipping**: 3–5 business days A comprehensive guide to mastering your executive voice.
