PLEASE. STOP. TALKING!!!!!!!
Your fancy presentation or on-air radio break isn’t necessarily about the number of words, PowerPoint slides, or even length. If what you’re saying is compelling and captivating it can be as long as it needs to be. Let’s dive into this week’s Beyond The 615 Column, article # 12. ?
LESS IS MORE ?
Think graduation speeches, radio shows, coffee shop hangs, and dating. Great moments make you lose track of time while the bad ones make you feel like you’re being held hostage. Now, consider your audience, teammates, family, and friends. Do they tolerate your stories that should’ve ended twelve sentences ago?? Be brave. Ask them. ?
IT REALLY COMES DOWN TO THIS
Being an effective communicator begins with these 3 things: ?
1. Self-awareness. ?
2. Self-control. ?
3. Having your audience in mind.
“There’s more opportunity in leaving people wanting more than giving them so much they wish they had less.” - Simon Sinek
