198. Pause and Effect: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (2 of 3)
Manage episode 477545303 series 2613498
This three-part miniseries is all about keeping your cool when speaking on the spot.
Communicating effectively can be challenging enough, even with plenty of time to prepare what we want to say. But for most of our communication, there’s no time to plan, practice, or perfect — we have to respond in the moment.
Spontaneous communication is a part of our everyday lives, but few of us have been trained to handle these impromptu situations with confidence. What does it take to flow, not freeze, when put on the spot? This special three-part series turns to experts for guidance, from a sports commentator, FBI hostage negotiator, and UN translator to a game show host, NFL referee and Sotheby’s auctioneer.
Part 1: Preparation and Mindset
Discover how to prepare for the unpredictable, manage anxiety, and find the right headspace for success.
Part 2: Mastering the Moment
Learn to stay present, read the room, and use techniques like mirroring and pacing to connect with your audience.
Part 3: When Things Go Wrong
Find out how to recover from inevitable mishaps and keep moving forward with confidence, turning mistakes into gold.
In addition to insight-packed discussions, this Think Fast, Talk Smart miniseries offers practical exercises and homework assignments to help you implement what you've learned. Whether you draw blanks when put on the spot or simply want to articulate your thoughts more clearly in the moment, these episodes will transform how you think — and speak — on your feet.
