When you’re in business all speaking is public speaking. The reality is that whether you realize it or not, every time you have an encounter with someone or a group you are stepping to the front of the room. To be an impactful business person you must master the art of speaking in every situation. Whether it is one-on-one, in a group, or even in your writing, when your messaging is unclear people will walk away unsure about what it is you actually do. Whenever you are communicating with people it is important to remember that what you’re really doing is answering questions. The best way to make an impact is to keep it simple. Say the words you really want to say. The real goal is to serve your audience - not impress. Share your honest experiences, and you will reach people far deeper than if you try to impress them. On this episode of Creative Warriors we are joined by Dr. Michael Hudson, who has dedicated himself to mastering the art of communication and public speaking. We are so fortunate to hear his insights on how to conquer fears around speaking and start making a real impact.

WARRIOR OF WORDS “The story we need to tell is the one we’re not talking about.” -Michael Hudson  Highlights - Make a decision, and make it right. Think of your environment and hang things on your wall. We all step to the front of the room in every interaction we have. Find your tag line. Start mapping your life and the most significant things that have happened. Creative people are always suppressed. Accept the chaos. Trying to impress is a block to simplicity. Many speakers have thrown up in the bathroom due to nerves. We devalue what we know far too much. If you’re a verbal processor, you love ideas for the sake of ideas. We have to take responsibility when we are not heard.
