About this lesson
Use your phone to record yourself and get the feedback you need to deliver messages effectively.
- 00:04 Let's hop right in with a quick win.
- 00:07 There is a simple high tech solution that will dramatically boost your
- 00:12 communication skills.
- 00:14 It's right in front of us, and yet most of us never use it.
- 00:18 Here's the tool, it's a cell phone.
- 00:20 But wait a minute, here's the trick.
- 00:23 If you have to communicate to a prospective boss about a job, or
- 00:28 a raise, or you're trying to raise money from investors.
- 00:32 Or you want to ask people for their vote for public office, here's the key.
- 00:36 Practice what it is you want to communicate on video, look at it,
- 00:40 figure out what you like, don't like.
- 00:43 Once you've got a version on video that you like,
- 00:46 here's the thing that you're not going to have done before.
- 00:49 I promise you, email that video to a friend or colleague.
- 00:54 Ideally, someone whose mindset is similar to the person you're trying to
- 00:59 communicate with.
- 01:01 And then ask your friend, call them, text them, ask your friend and say,
- 01:05 not what do you think?
- 01:07 But what do you remember?
- 01:09 What messages do you remember?
- 01:12 If they remember the messages that were important to you,
- 01:16 now you can relax, you know you are communicating.
- 01:20 But if they're not getting it, it's not their fault, it's your fault.
- 01:26 Time to practice again, come up with new messages, a new style for communicating.
- 01:33 This one technology will really dramatically help you.
- 01:39 Most people aren't doing it, but now you can.
