Chapter 3: Learn To Use Terms That Invoke Emotions
Synopsis
For most, the effective impacts desired out of a communicating exercise, comes from the importance of being able to invoke some level of emotion both from the presenter and the listener.
If the communication is well designed, with this important aspect dominantly featured, then the eventual results of the said communication exercise will bring forth the desired effects.
Emotions
Learning how to identify and include terms in the speech pattern and body language will be very useful when trying to focus in invoking some sort of emotion from all involved.
Using appropriate trigger works and phrases is one way of achieving this emotional impact. “Painting” a picture with the choice of words used is the main idea behind the emotion invoking communication technique.
This is very important for the presenter who is focused on making the desired impact on the listener in order to get the results intended.
However it should be also noted that the use of invoking emotions can be something that causes the opposite of the intended impact meant.
Therefore it is very important to identify beforehand the emotions that are being sought after, through the communication exercise, so that the words chosen will rightly describe the actual content of the message intended to be divulged.
The following are some recommendations as to the best use of words that will ideally invoke emotions:
Using descriptive words and visual words to make it easy for the listener to “see” the picture in the mind’s eye would be one way of invoking the desired emotions.
Using smiles and metaphors is another effective way of invoking the desired emotions into the content of the message to make it more impactful.
There are also actual words that can be used to invoke strong emotions both in the presentation material and in the overall content intention.
Chapter 4: Pay Attention To Body Language
Synopsis
Having the general gist of the message being lost in translation is especially possible when the body language used does not in any way reflect the actual message content intended for the listener. Therefore it is very important to ensure the appropriate body language is chosen and used to match whatever is being communicated. This is one of the most effective ways of reinforcing the message being communicated.
What Are They Saying
Whether it is for the intention of making a good first impression or for the intention of making a powerful and impacting presentation, the body language that accompanies the communication has to be spot on; otherwise the desired results will most certainly not be achieved.
Factors such as posture, firm handshakes, eye contact, fidgeting, animated movements, sitting positions, voice levels are all different body language tools that deserve a level of attention to ensure the correct use is parallel to the intended message.
Paying attention to the body language being shown by the listener will also help the individual identify the level of interest the listener has towards what is being communicated.
This is especially useful, as it can help the communicator change topic content, style or words and incorporate the ideal and appropriate body language movements to be used to attract the possible waning attention or even enhance the interested attention of the listener.
Studying the body language is an important first hand indicator as to how well the message in being received and understood. This is definitely an advantage to be fine tuned as it is important to ensure any communication exercise achieves the desired results it was first designed to reach.
A large number of people whose careers depend on being able to identify the other parties reactions through the body language reading, will attest to the importance and effectiveness of its ability to enhance communications
Chapter 5: Learn To Use Terms That Spark Interest
Synopsis
Any tools that can be used to enhance the communication exercise are definite exploring for its merits. Besides the more common recommendations such as body language and vocal tones, there is another equally interesting way to create optimum interest in the subject being communicated. This is the art of incorporating little nuggets of information that can spark the interest of the listener.
Get Attention
When it comes to perking the interest of the listener, the most common way to spark interest is to name drop. This has always been a crowd puller because by nature most people are rather inquisitive and want to know all about what others are doing or thinking. Therefore by name dropping the conversation now becomes more interesting and thus worth the time and effort to indulge in.
Giving out information that is attention grabbing is also another form of sparking the interest of the listener through the communication exercise.
Using facts and figures that create or imply shocking information that is little know, will add to the excitement levels of the communication content, thus encouraging and sparking even more interest.
Another way to help spark interest is to be well informed in the subject matter that is being discussed. People are often attracted to individuals who are well informed on the topic of discussion.
Projecting a seemingly commanding presence by the tone of voice and the topic chosen for discussion is also another way to spark interest from those around. Presentations that are made with voice tones and body language that personifies confidence will ideally create a resonance that attracts interest.
Using terms that are positive and encourage interaction is always a welcomed way to ensure participation, and this if often the ingredient that encourages interest. Most people enjoy some form of interactive conversations as it allows them to ask questions and engage with others.
