Leadership, Cognitive Neuroscience, and You

Monday, December 19th, 2011

Hi Everybody,
The blog is back! I will be offering snippets of advice and links to articles that connect with brains and voices! You will also be reading posts from my new business partner, Laura Vanderpool.

Today’s link relates to how cognitive neuroscience is creeping into our business lives. I like this quick Q&A because it reminds us that connecting with our brains doesn’t have to be the automatic experience many of us have. The Brain-Voice Connection agrees!

Take time to consider before you speak, both for content and voice quality. Enjoy! Anna

Every time you open your mouth to speak…

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

… it’s for the benefit of the listener. That’s right, it’s not about you, it’s about them!

Think about it this way: you can talk to yourself in your head. When you begin speaking out loud, your goal is to communicate information to other people. The people who can’t hear you talking to yourself in your head!

When speaking is about the listener, it suddenly becomes clear that the listener deserves the best style of communciation you can deliver. That is what I will cover in the months ahead.

Next week: how to guide the listener through the maze of your thoughts.
