Ron Arden Speaking Tips

From Patricia Fripp's Interview with Ron Arden
Champion's Edge June 2010

1. Be Loud. put in vocal energy. Speak a bit louder than you think comfortable.
2. Eye Contact. Give each person 3 to 6 words.
3. Hands speak. Move elbows to side to increase gesture size.
4. Move. If you can't step, pivot as you switch eye contact. Give a slice of attention.
5. Silence  is powerful. Give listener time to process.
