Why 99% Of People Struggle To Make A Great Impression
Why do 99% of people at work struggle to make a great impression?
- They don't know the secrets to speaking in a way that gets people to listen
- They ramble
- They don't open up enough about their personal lives
Before I learned these speaking secrets, I missed out on opportunities to build meaningful relationships with colleagues and customers. I missed out on forming alliances with key partners. I was forgotten by executives.
After years of studying great speakers, I learned the key framework that helped me solve all of these problems, which helped me elevate to the Head of Business Development at a software company. I made a new video that shows you that framework so you can do the same for your career. In short, it's:
- Answer First (0 - 1:22): A BLUF (bottom line up front) that directly answers the question
- Transition (1:23 - 2:14): A segue into a short story
- Action (2:15 - 3:42): A detailed action or emotion that represents the pinnacle of the story
- Takeaway (3:43 - end): What you want them to remember
To master this framework yourself, it will require lots of practice, particularly in the "action" part of the framework. If you found this helpful, the Impromptu Speakers Academy is my 3-week bootcamp to help you become a clear and confident speaker at work. Reserve your spot today while they're still available.
