How to create a voice for your costume and improve your leadership voice too

With Halloween just around the corner, the Western world is buzzing with thoughts of costumes. While we all love a great costume, it's interesting to note that a child's voice can easily match a Spiderman costume, but for adults, a convincing voice is key. Our voices, much like our costumes, reveal a lot about us. So, if you're looking to have some fun and talk like a business leader, here are a few tips for Pirates that also apply to leaders.??

Step 1. GET TO KNOW YOUR SUBJECT:?? Your vocal image is affected by geography, emotions, education, gender, age, emotions, and physical attributes, so you will find a difference between the voice of an old, cranky pirate from Florida and a young, sly pirate from the Barbary Coast. Fortunately, there is almost as much help online if you want to talk like a pirate as if you're going to speak like a leader. For the former, start with a glossary of pirate terms in the article "Talk Like A Pirate Day." To parley like a leader, you will want to get your sea legs and set your sails for YouTube or an online bookstore. There, you can get into the heads of leaders like Steve Jobs and Brené Brown.???

Step 2. LISTEN TO A GOOD SOURCE:??

It takes a lot of work to find a real pirate on YouTube.

Just search with "whar be a briny scurvy dog?" However, If you want to talk like a business leader, you can watch all 55 speeches by leaders of the 21st century to learn how it's done.????

So, go ahead, have some fun with your new vocal skills and see how they can enhance your Halloween experience and your professional development.?
