- Speak with confidence. I don’t mean puff up your chest and act as though you’re the most important person in the room. I mean, channel your inner confidence that you’ve nurtured through self-care, daily gratitude practice, and self-love. Ensure you’ve got great energy and a smile on your face, when appropriate, as well.
- Like, uh, um, you know. Cut out all the filler words that don’t help get you to your point. If you need a moment, take a brief pause. That will provide emphasis instead of making it seem that you don’t know the answer.
- Avoid fancy words, exaggeration and word repetition. Your goal is to be clear and concise. Overly intellectual words can sometimes cause people to feel like you’re intentionally being condescending or talking over their heads. You also don’t have to hyperbolize or repeat thoughts to get your point across.
- Use active listening skills and ask thoughtful questions. This also requires you to be present in the moment and to not let your mind wander.
