How to Sound More Confident and Persuasive
When we’re trying to influence people, our voices can have an impact (оказать влияние, воздействие). For example, you might speak slightly louder or more softly than you normally do. When someone wants to persuade others, people often push back (сопротивляются этому) because they don’t want to be persuaded. However, audiences tend to look at speakers who vary the volume of their voices as more confident, according to new research.
You can always craft a perfect e-mail, but studies show that we tend to think of people more as real human beings when we hear them speak. Of course, you don’t need to shout, but speak up (говорите отчетливо) – it will help. And it’s not what you say, it’s how you say it.
