Use the microphone
Winning hearts and minds with a speech
Read this line aloud, without smiling.
“Today is a day you will never forget…”
Sounds a bit like a threat from a gangster movie, right?
Now try reading it with a smile on your face.
“Today is a day you will never forget…”
Now, it sounds like a celebration, something to be excited about.
Smiling when we speak can dramatically increase or decrease the intonation in our voice.
This is great when we’re delivering a speech or presentation as this simple change can instantly give us a voice that conveys a positive or negative emotion. It changes the whole mood of our talk.
How are you going to use your smile in your next presentation?
