Sometimes you talk and get the feeling that no one is

listening to you

Why is it so?

Here’s Julian Treasure to tell you how to speak

deadly sins of conversation

1.GossipSaying nasty things about people who

aren’t present

2. JudgingIt makes hard for one to listen if he is

being judged

3. NegativityNegative outlookYou can easily fall into it and its hard to

listen

4. ComplainingComplaining achieves nothing instead

its a form of negativity

5. Excuses Passing problems of the world on to

everyone else

6. LyingExaggeration leads to lying

7. DogmatismBombarding someone with your opinions

How we can make our speech more

powerful?

To greet enthusiasticallyH.A.I.L

• H- Honesty (being true, straight and clear)• A- Authenticity (being yourself)• I- Integrity (doing what you say)• L- Love (being a well wisher)

How to say it?

Tools in your speech to enhance your

speech

Register• A deeper voice from the chest speaks

with more power and authority

Timbre • How the voice feels or sounds-

distinct from tone or loudness

Prosody

• The sing-song or up and down of the movement-opposite of monotonus.

Pace • A rapid pace, then slowing down for

emphasis. Or just pausing occasionally can be very powerful

Pitch• A higher pitch can make you sound

more excited

Volume • Quiet to make people lean in and pay

attention, louder can also show excitement.

Don’t broadcast loudly all the time

So for nowEvery one wants to listen you
