In the middle of the first year of the pandemic—June 2020, Sia Papageorgiou in Melbourne, Australia, and Georgia Patrick in Texas, USA met through their mutual connections with the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC). Our discussions quickly turned to weekly calls about shared experiences and concerns for professionalism, business communication, and exceptional leaders. 
 
What we discovered over the course of many hour-long weekly chats, provided us with a cascade of realizations that fit our uniqueness and individual purpose. We are complex and curious, and we discovered that what is “wrong” with us, is exactly what is “right” with us. We are gifted adults who are among the 95% of us who never knew it until someone proved it to us. 
 
It took a while to accept the term “gifted” because that felt strange. Instead, our research led us to experts who already figured out much about gifted adults and even gave it a better name—rainforest mind. Just to clarify, “gifted” in this context doesn’t mean profoundly brilliant – we mean everyday people of unusual vision, who share a dominant trait – their ability to give progress a push forward.

Here’s a peek into the mind and world of the gifted professional and communicator, so you know what to look for: Excessively curious, sensitive, highly intelligent, and a deep desire for precision, ethics, and excellence. We feel the pressures, pleasures, and peculiarities of living inside the intense and complicated mind of a gifted professional with well-developed communication skills. 
 
Each week, we feature stories about professionals who are initiating meaningful conversations with other gifted minds and storytellers–and who they serve.
