[Ohio-Talk] Questions To Ponder!

[Suzanne Turner]

Ohio and Friends,

 

Have you ever wondered what it takes to be a leader, how to communicate
effectively, and how to persuade others in a positive way?

 

And have You asked your self, do you have a vision? Can you be sharp and to
the point when you speak. Are you able to be honest, and how do you connect
with individuals or an audience. Affective communication requires more than
just confidence and controlling your body language. It requires more of what
you want to get across and how you want your audience to receive it

 

Thus, be aware of how you come across with others today so you can move
forward for tomorrow.

 

Now that I have your attention!

 

I know of a few influential speakers who can answer all of the above
questions.

 

So, set your alarms, hang the event on your refrigerator, write it in
Braille or ask Alexa to set a reminder and join me tomorrow evening.
