Download or read book Can You Hear Me written by Nick Morgan and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Washington Post Bestseller Your manual for remote and virtual work. Communicating virtually is cool, useful, and now even more ubiquitous and necessary than ever. But we're often reminded that the quality of human connection we experience in many forms of virtual communication is awful. We've all felt disconnected in a video conference, frustrated that we're not getting through on the phone, upset when our email is badly misinterpreted, or anxious that we're being misunderstood. How can we fix this? In this powerful, practical book, communication expert Nick Morgan outlines five big problems with communication in the virtual world--lack of feedback, lack of empathy, lack of control, lack of emotion, and lack of connection and commitment--and shows how to overcome them as we shift to working remotely more and more. Morgan argues that while virtual communication will never be as rich or intuitive as a face-to-face meeting, recent research suggests that we need to learn is to consciously deliver a whole set of cues, both verbal and nonverbal, that we used to deliver unconsciously in the pre-virtual era. He guides us through this important process, providing rules for virtual feedback, an empathy assessment and virtual temperature check, tips for creating trust in a virtual context, and advice for specific digital channels such as email and text, the conference call, Skype, and more. Whether you're an entrepreneur, an independent professional, or a manager in an organization that has more than one office or customers who aren't nearby, Can You Hear Me? is your essential communications manual for twenty-first-century work.
Download or read book The Three Stages to Public Speaking Mastery written by Sarah Ewen and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When most people begin learning public speaking they don't know where to start. Do they start by learning how to project their voice and how to develop a good posture? Do they start by learning how to overcome their fear of public speaking? Or do they start by learning how to write speeches?In The Three Stages to Public Speaking Mastery we take you through a step by step process. We treat learning public speaking as a journey with three key stages:The first stage is the character development stage. The public speaking journey does not begin the moment you stand on stage to deliver a speech. Nor does it begin when you start writing and practicing a speech. It begins when you make a decision to start working on your inner self. In this stage we consider: - how to develop the mindset of a public speaker - how to overcome the fear of public speaking - how to speak from the heartThe second stage is the speech preparation stage. There is a common misconception about public speaking - many people think that speeches require little preparation. The truth is, public speaking requires significant preparation and practice. No-one is born a natural speaker. In this stage we share tips on: - how to write a speech - how to make a speech easy to understand - how to practice your speechThe third stage is the speech delivery stage. This is often what many people think of when they want to learn public speaking. However, success in this stage relies upon a strong foundation - a well developed character together with a well prepared speech. In this stage we share: - how to have a captivating voice - how to have an engaging eye contact - how to use body language effectivelyWe have written this book with the following philosophy in mind: "make sure the ideas are deep yet easy to grasp." We didn't want to state the obvious but at the same time we didn't want the book to be difficult to read.
