INSPIRATION: how to speak so that people want to listen

We’ve all been in the situation when we’re trying to say something but feel like we’re not being heard. Ever feel like nobody is listening to you? Julian Treasure can help. Back in 2013 he gave a TED talk on effective communication that went absolutely gangbusters, and for good reason – he will change the way you talk. Julian is a sound and communication expert with a passion for utilising the human voice and the spoken word to its utmost potential, believing that in modern society we are losing the ability to use these tools.

In his talk, Julian demonstrates the how-tos of truly powerful speaking by breaking them down into the seven deadly sins of speaking. The seven negative habits that he outlines may surprise you, even more so how often you indulge in these habits. Luckily, he also provides the tools for turning these habits around.
