    Sir,
    I am perplexed with the art public of speaking. It is quite natural as rain comes from heavens. By going through such stuff it makes me worried. What is to be focused and what not to be focused. The human beings are blessed with power of speech. It is the greatest gift and this makes us most intelligent. Why do we make simple things complicated by giving lables such as verbal, nonverbal, kinesthetic, auditory, visual, the more we give priority to these things the core will be missing.
    How does he speaks whether he is leaning, standing towards 45° or 60°. It is the listener's choice what he wants to listen ,he listens to it. He also understands what is not being spoken. It is the absolute choice of speaker/ listener.
    Do we learn typewriting by reading the mannual? Do we learn swimming by reading a book? Did we listened to our parents after completing the certificate courses?
    It is just natural. In this vast world, everything is ready except man.
    It is not intended to hurt or criticise anyone's sentiments. I just thought of write something.
    When we understand the history, we can come to know the natural and latent abilities of the greatest speakers the world such as Swami Vivekananda, Martin Luther King, Winston Churchill, Hitler, etc.,
    Did they possess any master degrees from reputed universities?
    No, the need is the drive. It makes all the difference.
    I once again thank you very much everyone who pays their valuable time to read.
    Thank you.

    Valuable advice! I think this summary of the "when to speak up and how to deal with hecklers"-part might be helpful for/worth sharing with other viewers:
    It's all about smart timing:
    1. Anticipate current speaker's pause (hint: they wind down)
    2. Meanwhile as they wind down: Signal you'll speak next: Lean in, visibly breathe in via mouth, and slightly raise index finger
    3. As they hit their pause, you just start speaking
    4. If you get interrupted make friendly eye contact with interruptor
    5. Unless urgent, let them courteously go first (if they don't offer to let you go first) and keep signaling you go next (see 2)

    Thank you for this video! I am naturally shy and have always found meetings so difficult. Like SO difficult because of all the things you mentioned. I wait and wait and wait because I never know the right place to speak up, and when I do, I’ve rehearsed the thing so much that I feel like it explodes out of me.
    Truly appreciate your clear articulation of the problems and the clear solutions. I’m going to implement these immediately. Thank you!

    • @alexanderlyon
      @alexanderlyon  2 года назад +2

      It's a good idea and a lot of people have asked but I probably won't do videos about Zoom. There are so many out there on that from other channels right now and I don't have an anything special to say about it at this point. If I come up with something a little unique to say, I might reconsider.

    I found all these useful, thank you very much. I am an introvert so when I have to speak up in a meeting, all I can think of at that moment is that everybody's eyes are on me and then I turn red in the face. I need to work on my confidence and tell myself that what I have to say is important and of value.

    you have helped me very much! I always wait for an audible pause but waiting for the wind down and audibly breathing in (giving a cue) also gives the other speaker an opportunity to give a cue as to whether they are done or not (yes or no right after I cue) works flawlessly with the finger if you need to cut them there to respond
