The Secret Weapon In Any Negotiation
The Communicator’s Secret Weapon!
I know. I’m calling it a secret weapon. And I believe that if you want to be an incredible speaker, communicator, or negotiator, you need to know how to wield it. This week’s Tell Your Story Better podcast episode delves into this arrow in our quiver. I give you examples, ideas, and thoughts on how to let it fly to success. Plus, you’ll hear me sing! 🙂
But frankly, few of us want to put this tool in our toolbox. Why? It makes us uncomfortable. I’m here to tell you. You have to get used to it. You must get super comfy with … the pause.
Yes, you heard it here first. Pauses make us super uneasy. We start filling the silences. And we have to get over it in order to listen and communicate.
Get Used To Silence
Enjoy it. If you can treat the pause, the silence, as a moment of discovery, you will achieve amazing things.
In the meantime, I’d love to hear from you about this “secret” weapon. How do you feel about your conversation skills? What do you think you might need to learn or build some skills in? Drop me a DM or a comment and let me know. And if there is a specific communication question you’d like me to address, please let me know that as well. You can find me at izolda@izoldat.com or DM me at Instagram at @IzoldaT. I’d love to hear from you. And Until next time, I send you all my love.
