Workshop: Expressing Vowels to Create Meaningful Connections

The EXPRESSING VOWELS TO CREATE MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS workshop is a one-hour powerhouse. Vowels are the key to being perceived as the thought leader that you are! They help us to create meaningful connections with others. Vowels hold the emotion of the language.  Therefore, let us consider words that are all about emotion, such as wow, ah, oh, and yeah. Yes, these words are spoken solely to express our emotions and are comprised entirely of vowel sounds. They are 100% vowel sounds!  Vowels are also the key to producing multi-syllable words clearly – so important for all of you engineers and technical professionals.

So, let’s consider vowels at three levels.

1) The clarity level: Would you like to be understood clearly the first time? Without clarity, you will never be considered a thought leader in your organization.

2) The emotional level: Would you like to be more engaging, persuasive, or empathetic in your conversations with others? The farther you advance on the leadership track, the more you will be communicating about ideas and relationships rather than technical data. Talking about ideas and relationships requires emotional inflection in one’s voice.

3) The communication style level: Most importantly though, would you like to communicate as the confident thought leader that you are? This requires a vocal tone that conveys confidence combined with compassion.

The common factor at all of these levels of communication is vowels. Specifically, it is your mindset around vowels that will shift to create more meaningful connections with others in this one-hour workshop. Yes, we will address the mechanics of vowels as per your needs, but regardless of how advanced your English is, your mindset around vowel production will establish you as the clear, confident thought leader that you are.
