How to improve verbal ability?
Solution: how to say more important because of an Executive Director
dull, boring way of saying, and that hampered the effectiveness of their leadership; a senior manager, because the sound gruff, missed with the promotion; an advertising manager for voice soft and clear, leaving the great power of the creative original statement has lost its charms; a sales manager because the same words as the opening gun, and let him customers feel uncomfortable, and can not trust him; as an international consultant to speak with a strong foreign accent, and people are difficult to understand what she was saying.
whether you like it or not, outside of a person's judgments, not see how his knowledge or behavior, nor is it good or bad to see the content of his speech, but by way of his speech.
University of California, Los Angeles, according to a survey, in determining the various factors that first impression , the visual impression (ie, appearance) 55%, the sound impression (that is, speech patterns) accounted for 38%, while the language of the impression (that is, speech content) accounted for only 7% of insignificant! If a telephone conversation, because there is no appearance of factors , the sound is the proportion accounted for 83%.
Obviously, the sound is a very important communication tool. It can be clear that who you are, and determine how the outside world to listen to you and see you. a lot of managers, both the ability to move forward with forward momentum, but as a normal are two completely different for you to leave the impression, perhaps decisive, confident, reliable, pleasant impression, or is not credible, weak, annoying, boring, rude or even untruthful impression. In fact, the bad The sound can easily ruin a person's career and interpersonal networks. that too much emphasis on etiquette, dress and appearance, often spontaneously in their neglect of the sound impression to others the important role played by.
Worse, few people will tell you why every time you Zunkou opened, your personal image could be damaged. So, you may never know why I always want to work can not be, or why about the girl you want to always refuse your invitation.
few years ago, one for annoying voice that you feel most uncomfortable. put a machine gun-like sound, sissy, monotonous voice, and a thick accent.
So, How do I know whether the sound is above a certain? First, figure out your voice to others the impression. Therefore, it is necessary to record their own conversation. When you work in the company, the voice mail to others in the hair before playback again. If there is no condition to do so, to use tape recorders. in the hearing process, not only concerned with content, but to pay attention to his manner of speaking. how your voice sounds like? find out the good from the view that one or two aspects, then find one or two areas for improvement.
out of pronunciation problems
The good news is that you can change your way of speaking. because, even if you have become accustomed to speaking in a fixed way, does not mean you can not escape your voice now. some simple voice and speech training can be extremely Earth change the impression you give to others.
example, if you are a heavy nasal speech, then you can try a burr.
Speed If your problem is too fast, and that this the problem is not just a speech, but also may reduce other people you trust. After all, you would trust to speak like a jumping bean of a general insurance agent or stock broker it? This looks so easy to get rid of problems like. you're trying to slower rate of speech, but found no a few seconds, his back to the original speed. This is really frustrating. The reason is that no one can tell you how to Speed down. nervous person, or head in his mouth faster than people who are particularly prone to commit this wrong. They always want to say much in one breath.
Speed is the key to control, to learn to speak, the occasional pause. respiratory pause In fact, your thinking is to add If you said before.
If your problem is slur or missing word? let you know lisp listener incomprehensible. However, the problem is far more than that. sounds vague, it will become your humble in words, the lack of training, lazy, and careless, this is clearly not the impression you wish to leave to others. casual conversation you do not often reflect the careful thought, or people think you're trying to hide something.
So how do you solve it? for the novice, first check your speed. Speed of a fast, it will cause a slur or omitted words. However, some people still pronounce even talk soon. Therefore, pronunciation The key is a clear understanding of the limits of its Speed, you should speak with their speech rate within its capacity.
Also, if you spoke always ambiguous, probably because you're not big enough to speak when his mouth wide open . there was a manager when they speak like a ventriloquist m superb performance when he spoke almost no separation of the upper and lower teeth. After several weeks of professional training, he finally Da his mouth, the voice becomes more clear. If you had not used to big mouth to speak, the beginning of the training you will find it very funny. Yet, to more clearly pronounced, this is you need only pay a small price.
energize the sound you have never had such
experience: in a meeting, your not too much audience reaction, but after a few minutes people say the same thing, but got all the attention and appreciation? Perhaps, the problem is not that you that the content, but rather the way you said.
in a major industry conference, there was a manager made a statement. As a leader, he was respected; as a speaker, his voice was unacceptable . In the past, even in the play to the best of times, his voice still sounds very monotonous; and the worst of times in the play, said he was a miracle.
However, the interesting thing happened. He at first told a story about myself, the sound has changed suddenly. The original plain speech into the vivid color and passion.
About How speech, the managers got a simple solution is to speech as a big story in terms of content. and more comfortable with words.
strange to say, many people actually believe that plain speaking is an authoritative performance. to behave orderly, they persist in the kind of dry, blunt, speak So, our ears willing to hear what kind of sound? Imagine you are listening to two different music, first with 4 notes, and the second has 12 notes. What can be more lasting piece of music attracted you? Of course the latter, because it transforms rich. the human voice is the same. sound more colorful and change, the more able to seize the audience's attention.
most of us, how many voices will speak some changes. But the key difference between the merits of the speaker is monotonous speaker not sufficiently change the tone, that he did not pay attention to the cadence tone, so that the audience found it very boring.
拿格林斯潘 (Alan Greenspan ) and Clinton (Bill Clinton) to be compared. The former voice sounded very flat, the lack of change, while the latter is very expressive, tone transformation is also very rich. In his speech, let your voice more ups and downs, not only will be even more convincing, but also better that you will be responsible for what they were saying.
concrete can do: Speaking of the most critical information, changes in tone. usually used to limit or describe the things the words such as adjectives, adverbs and action verbs, preferably with emphasis. If you're not used to self-assured to do the talking, you must use the treble is much more to get the best results.
received systematic training course, even if is the speaker input on the charm, in certain cases, may lose their luster, such as when they are extreme fatigue. Therefore, the journey through the air after a long trip, to be extra careful in his speech to his voice full of elastic At least that sounds can appear happy and energetic. After all, no one will be willing to hear the voice of weary managers.
repeat the same speech content will become boring, boring. Think of a Broadway actor, They always repeat the static lines, day after day, year after year. But every time they have to sing melodious! how they do it? some extent, they work as a game. First, they applied a large number of voice changes. Secondly, they keep trying different keys. Therefore, where almost no two performances are alike. Thus, the tone can change the content of speech sounds more a new, more like improvisational play.
In addition, when you need to talk about complex or technical content at the right time, but also make full use of your voice on. Many speakers felt that the use of technical terms can be left to the audience Under the more impressive. However, if inadvertently, these terms would give the speech to be bored.
there was a manager needs to do a very professional presentation topic. In the process I guide him, when I tried to let him beautify his speech, he suddenly stopped and said: The. Never dull speech attributed to the content of their own. No matter how boring the content appears to have a boring, as the speakers you have to make it sound amusing, this is your job.
my other A customer is an executive director, she encountered another problem. Every day after work, her voice will become very rough, hoarse, and she asked me how to improve. So I give her daily developed sound training program. can she exclaimed in surprise: The answer is that you can not just speak to trained by the usual loud and powerful voice. everyday speech and formal training can not be compared. to be trained in loud, strong voice m the sound to get attention, help m you win the respect of others you need sound training system.
the time after your voice can be significantly improved? It depends on how much effort you are willing to pay. You have to develop their own voice on the mining the ultimate potential of desire and power, not satisfied with the minimum standards. After all, you sound more pleasing to the ear, you can get more opportunities. Finally, please remember that no matter whether this is fair and in your personal life and career, people are always judged by your voice of your people.
solution II: the art of mouth came
Editor's Note) The term is said to be a waiter from the early practice. They used to record sleeve shirt guests of the dish, or afterwards, and later, Hollywood film director who also cast attention to the scene to remind the record written in the cuff, to carry forward this a stiff starched shirt cuffs, and speech, as long as the arm stretched it out, talk about the content of it vividly.
in impromptu situations, almost every word you say is De. Xiangshuojiushui, not ready. However, the mysteries of wonderful impromptu speech is that it actually did not improvise. Usually, it is not the so-called coherent, fingertips, or a last-minute spot to play a flash. success The impromptu speech is the result of the speaker's try to figure out, sort, test, refine, feel, try, and repeated over and over again to practice before implementation.
Please note that there is no use to write down what will be a problem, is that it often only stay on paper, you can not really convey to the audience that interesting idea. Only a very seasoned actor to read the vivid description of the manuscript.
in small card down some words on the point as the speech is possible, but do not want to say you have written down verbatim and then back down. to loudly and repeatedly practice the content of the speech you want until you are of the However, in the heart. speech is speech, not scripted. the ideas down on paper and then read to the audience to listen, this is very wrong.
your words must mean it. We do not exactly everyday words like this? When Do you have an idea, express ideas or emotional needs, the communication should not play this role, but to play a convincing, entertaining, or the role of incentives. passionate speech is a wonderful speech.
the following four kinds of occasions, it will ask you to impromptu speech should be one of your skills. You have to think of ways to improve this skill.
dinner speech to take a lot of people are uncertain whether a speech at the dinner joke. because you want everyone pleasure not Banqimiankong preaching, so the joke is. Nevertheless, the unexpected outcome of the story about some of the insurance some more. think about what their anecdotes or vivid metaphor can bring unexpected jokes. Note said to be around their own personal things, self-deprecating and not laugh at others.
to do presentations in the preparation, set out to avoid too much information. to your theme, perhaps more than you know what your audience know about or want to To understand to be a hundred times more. take the time to study your audience and understand what they can get from your speech, what. have focused on message, so that when the audience left, they can easily to remember your speech, effect, and three times that argument.
to joke at the beginning of the listeners attention, followed by twenty minutes barbarous experience. You can write with substance, and loss of the style, but it must not only style, but empty.
, this speech will be ruined. you have to introduce themselves or contact the site through scenarios and other methods to narrow the distance between the audience and then a story drew attention, again a sensational and appropriate motto or statement, or questions by the audience to state their main points.
this time to mention what the audience, for example, they may be employees, may be senior managers, customers, etc. may also be high, but also explain why their views for them, it is very important. and then how he qualified as an expert to convey this information to them, and then to list three times and then the argument were to be detailed on the then all times to repeat the arguments briefly, and finally down to them using a variety of points, and then go into some detail about.
mind have one or more core script, then according to different audiences on the appropriate changes. that is, that each speech, you already have a plan, not crammed. speech after you have a better understanding about the content, know what point of view, what a joke and a story can lead to resonate with the audience, not on their appetite for what . but it must be under different circumstances and different companies spot to modify your existing content of the speech.
you to be safe, we should write down the content of the speech, then write something must be suitable to listen to , rather than look at. Remember, the audience is to listen to your speech, not listening to you read.
colloquial expression than writing simple and easy to understand. readers can hold their own speed, you can repeatedly try to figure out until the figure out so far. However, the words from the lips is always fleeting, so the speech, you have to slow down, be concise, so the audience can digest and comprehend what you mean.
yourself first to write something to read out loud, and then find a frank and enthusiastic colleagues or friends to help others do the audience and see how it works. If the manuscript topsy-turvy, so that it naturally difficult, and even let you out of breath. So write short sentences, simple sentences. For example, Churchill (Winston Churchill) to prefer to use dashes to punctuate, to remind ourselves where the ventilation was.
accepted the award at the presentation or speech, the speech ceremony
There are two roles: awards and honorees. Presentation speech should be noted that a technique is to keep the names of alumni who speak out at the end, even though we all know who you mean. This will preserve the suspense and create a climax. < br> No matter what role you play, you should be rewarded and the awards themselves were to do research, dig out some little-known but fascinating facts related. If you are interested in or something that makes you happy, then They are also likely to play a similar role in the audience.
a senior invited to a celebrity golf tournament winners prizes m a check. Because of this award ceremony itself is not anything interesting or fresh things at all, he must dig for something to make presentation not so bland speech. and he talked about a personal experience. He has always loved golf, but because there childhood disability, he can only watch other people play. Today, people stood on the stage presentation, he felt he seems to have marked golf.
award presentation of the taboo is lengthy, politicized. the audience may not agree with your political views. Therefore, we must closely around around themes and events, talk about some in-depth content. otherwise it will flow in the superficial, the audience is kind of torture.
alumni reflections, but a few cases, almost without exception, is too long. a sentence like this , for example, , people feel like you are writing fiction, like memories of his life, rather than simply say thank you.
dinner speech is Pian if the manuscript should be a section of alumni reflections to Suji. It may not be just a hair thanks from the heart, but can not talk too much.
compete for a prize if you can follow the athletes from the heart to praise as your competitors. This is a win-win approach. If you lose , and it does not matter, because you have said that they were really great; if you win, have your kind words to the opponent will make you more grace.
when you win the competition, published alumni speech, especially when Do not speak too long, as long as say thank you enough. Again, to learn the practice of professional athletes, won, sees himself as a model for others to learn lessons, but do not see themselves as heroes. it would be too like the trumpet, and make the NPC turnoff.
staged at the seminar said
in this information age, one of the most effective way to learn is to participate in the workshop organized by industry experts. because all the raw data have been studied, sorting, processing, experimental and editing are the essence of what you hear. the number of speakers, training time, the audience participation degree will have an impact on this learning.
the organization of seminars is not easy, organizers want to invite a host and three or four speakers. But the time and effort into rewarding. Each guest have focused on speech, so the number of workshop participants may be many. and organizers of all speakers should be encouraged to invite their friends, customers and business partners to attend their speech.
at the seminar, speakers do not have the afternoon or evening performance was perfect to attract the attention of all listeners. If you can recommend other speakers and participate in the discussion with you, then Chairman of the seminar will be very appreciate your practice. but under normal circumstances, you friends, that is, other speakers will also be appreciated. to adopt the proposed discussion of such vertical rather than horizontal discussion, you can avoid direct confrontation with competitors, and can choose to have your contractor or customer to a particular topic to speak, or act as moderator. If you want to be a point of the limelight, you can ask yourself as both the speaker and when the moderator. If so, you have to Stop and think how to make each speaker has a fair opportunity to speak , and not their own to hold onto the podium or a microphone.
If you have already selected the speakers, you should advance from the workshop where the chairman or moderator is to know who each speaker, the order of their speech is kind of how. should ask you first of several speeches, is the first, second, third, or was the ending. the situation is most likely, the host has not been fully identified in this order, and you can select the first several speakers.
choose the second floor is ideal. this time, the audience has begun to perk up Listen Hing abundant, and you say things may not say it before anyone else. If you know one of them outstanding speakers in particular eloquence, it is best to speak before him, and not followed.
whatever order, you have to take the time to look at the background of other speakers, even if they are your biggest competitors, in essence, you have to hold a graceful state of mind to face. Symposium on the considerations and potential customers is a comparison of different suppliers a great opportunity, such an occasion, you definitely want to behave generous and honest. This self-confidence you will have the final victory of great help!
your point of view to have some flexibility, but do not inconsistent with your philosophy . both from the perspective of experience and research to illustrate your topic. to learn some new things in this regard, the audience will think you are talking about something just a little bit of your profit to have learned nothing.
whether to participate in seminar will make a speech or in other occasions, in publicity or self-promotion to master a certain sense of proportion and the furnace. use your experience, customer lists, and past success stories support your point of view. Do not over for commercial advertising. This is not What new business promotion activities. you have been able to speak on this occasion, because your authority has been widely recognized. If you allow the audience to listen to the contents of the sales promotion of the rhetoric, they will feel pins and needles. < br> If you do host, then you are the head of the panel. you have to make clear to everyone on the agenda, and everyone's speech should last long, they were told which topics, as well as they are should be standing on the podium to speak, or sit in their seats with a table microphone.'d better let the people speak speech stage, and then answer the questions, we can all be seated with a table microphone.
if possible, as the host of the long table you'd better be sitting on one end, that is, the right side of the stage, the audience's left side. This position represents the authority. the audience is concerned, they interpret speech venue seating patterns like reading the headlines, but will keep their eyes look left. The usual practice is to question and answer period, one end of the long table of people sitting in chair, and sat in the middle of a spokesman for the end of each Like watching a tennis match, like, just look at the real master of the two during the contest.
new business referrals and sales presentations
promote new business or sales presentation, the audience is essential. you can more accurately determine the real needs of customers, the more likely to get the business.
you must first figure out what the customer really required, and give him customer's voice, and with him feel his needs are met in the pursuit of the process, has felt some emotions such as frustration, embarrassment, suspicion and frustration, etc., it is these feelings led him to want to make change. Then, a list of your product or service has what features, and these features can do for your customers what benefits. In many confirmed their needs, and solutions have been the right medicine, the customer should have enough reasons to believe that you provide products or services will satisfy his needs. so you have a better chance to win his favor.
If a customer is not very clear to their needs, it should give him a little overview of products or services. This introduced species also known as the elevator speech, the most important point is that the characteristics of the product or service should translate into customer benefits, so that he can truly feel the advantages of your product.
For example, if there was potential customers know you want to sell his house with an ocean view, four bedroom, roof skylights, there are three garage, then what good they do for him? best is to put these benefits in some situations, for example, with the sea King, the whole family will have the opportunity side of the sea breeze, while watching the dolphins playing in the water; four bedroom means that every child, even the servants could have their own room; roof of his house can mean better lighting and ventilation; number means a garage where he can put tools in Taiwan, leisure time, he can do some manual labor at that.
with some anecdotes and images of the language for your sales presentations add color, so There is a potential customer can use your immersive feeling of the product or service.
