The Power of Our Words
"Words not only affect us temporarily; they change us." — David Riesman, The Lonely Crowd
Our words are so much more powerful than we give them credit for. We take our words for granted, because we say so many in a day. We don’t take the time to think through "How might my comment leave the receiver? Feeling respected, or diminished? Feeling better about himself, or worse?"
This inspiring talk is an in-depth look at how others’ words have affected us, and how our words can affect others. Every audience members has had someone hurt them with their words, but they often haven’t seen how their words affect prospects, customers and co-workers.
The insights are shared with humor, warmth and honesty not often seen from the platform. The program is touching and insightful, as well as humorous.
