There are speakers and there are effective speakers; effective speakers are more successful than just ordinary speakers, not necessarily in terms of financial worth but the impact they make. It is true that a speaker’s job is to communicate his ideas and not necessarily to follow up on the listener’s journey to applying those ideas and seeing results; it is therefore the modus operandi of the speaker that makes him stand out from speakers in the same field.

An effective speaker is bent on getting the message across to his listeners in the simplest way possible. As such, he employs a variety of examples, scenarios, experiences, as they apply to his audience which is obviously made up of people from different backgrounds, climes, or even beliefs, etc. Basically, an effective speaker understands his audience and manipulates his speech to suit all of them.

A speaker does not take into cognizance the implication of his choice of words, so he says whatever comes to mind whenever it does. The more grandiose the word is the better – at least to make his audience see him as a moving dictionary. Unfortunately, that’s the best such can achieve. There’s no meaningful message passed that is well understood let alone practiced.

An effective speaker is a psycho-analyst, he recognizes and has the ability to tell the difference and meanings associated to different body communications or body gestures. His knowledge of this helps him manipulate his audience to his advantage. An ordinary speaker is totally adamant and goes about his business of speaking without caring to notice the reactions of his audience.

Are you just a speaker or are you an effective speaker? Decide today.
