TALK SHOW EPISODE NOTESThis is our COMMUNICATIONS COMMUNIQUÉ™ series! Our ability to express our ideas is critical to achieving any of our goals in life. We may possess the secret to eternal life and perpetual joy, but if it is trapped inside our thoughts with no way to share it with others it is useless. When we speak, write, stand, touch, move, see, hear, taste and/ or use any of our body to express what is in our mind we are able to create real life manifestations of our internal thoughts.
Writing, speaking and using our body language are some of the most common paths that we utilize to express our ideas externally. This is the field of communications! In this series we explore the techniques to most effectively express our ideas. The series is very important as the most brilliant ideas are nullified by the failure to effectively marshal our pathways of idea delivery (it is not what we say but how we say it). Due to the very important nature of each of these shows they are therefore each a communiqué. Thus, our series name, COMMUNICATIONS COMMUNIQUÉ™, is born! This episode is, “Is Your Speaking Speed Sabotaging Your Career?” In this show we discuss A Stone* of Solutions™ including: 1) SpeakTooFast? 2) S- p-e-a-k- ....T-o-o.... S-l-o-w-l-y....? 3) Force yourself to listen to at least 5 minutes of your voice playback. 4) Speed is not a reflection on intellect. 5) Where did you learn your speaking speed? 6) "Speaking too fast makes your listeners work too hard. And that's the last thing you want to do." - http://www.inc.com/sims-wyeth/how-to-slow-down-if-you-talk-too-fast.html 7) It is our responsibility as the speaker to do everything in our power to be understood. 8) We have a distorted view on our communications ("I don't sound like that!"). 9) We have a restricted view on our communications ("That's not what I meant!"). 10) Generic newscaster is a good benchmark for speed. 11) Emotional issues in the way (not good enough, not worthy, etc.). 12) Preparation of your speaking material. 13) Practice speaking material. 14) Production of speaking material. BONUS: Communications = an ongoing area of improvement (I use speed bumps to slow down). Let's share about your speaking speed! *A stone is unit of measure equaling 14 pounds (so we have 14 elements in our one stone of solutions!). |
