Happy New Year from Corporate Speech Solutions! Last week we gave you three
New Year’s Resolutions to help you take your communication skills to the
next level. This week we help you start 2019 on the right foot with three
more essential communication resolutions. Check them out below.

*Sharpen Your Listening Skills: *Communication is a two-way street, and
effective listening can make or break an interaction. Don’t simply wait for
your turn to speak. Show that you value what the other person has to say by
giving them your full attention and using effective body language. Make eye
contact, face the speaker with your whole body, and occasionally
acknowledge their speech with non-verbal gestures like nodding when
appropriate.  Also, resist the urge to glance at your phone for any reason.
It gives the impression that you’re bored, impatient, or not fully invested
in the conversation.

*Commit to Clarity:* It doesn’t matter how remarkable your ideas may be if
your listener can’t understand you! Mumbling, dropping sounds, and running
your words together not only makes it difficult for your listener to
understand your speech, it makes you sound unprofessional. Be sure to
pronounce each and every sound of every word. Be especially careful with
consonants at the end of a word.

*Develop a Dynamic Voice:* The quality of your voice can have an enormous
impact on how others view you and receive your message. The foundation of a
strong, dynamic voice is effective breathing. For the best breath support,
breathe from your abdomen, not your chest. Practice controlling how quickly
you release your breath as you speak. The key to improving your breath
support is awareness, so take the time to notice how you breathe and where
your air is coming from.

*If private training is not for you, check our our group training program
