6 Tips for Communicating Well

1. Keep it Simple – Stay focused on a few key points. Use common sense. If it sounds confusing, it probably is. If it sounds cheesy, it probably is.

2. Tell Great Stories – Great stories will validate your points. Unless you are just an amazing communicator, your points probably won’t hold me. So sprinkle in some great stories, good analogies, and current events.

3. The Audience is the Hero – Focus on the needs of the audience. You are not the center of the story. Your job is to meet their needs, not validate your desire to be the world’s greatest speaker. If they win, you win.

4. Inspire Action – Push me towards doing something, not just hearing something.

5. Create Hooks, Repetitions, and Memorable Phrases – I won’t remember all you said but I might remember something you said. Our current culture is now built around soundbites- status updates, tweets, texts, etc. Keep it simple, but also keep it short.

6. Land the Plane On Time – Not just ending on time, but actually ending with the right timing. Don’t keep circling above the runway – land it now.
