Ep 394: Speak Confidently In Any Room With Matt Abrahams
Most of us like to come prepared when we’re asked to give a speech — no matter the size of the room or audience. But sometimes when we want to say something important, we don’t have time to prepare at all! Being able to speak confidently on the fly is especially important at work, when so many of us have big goals we want to accomplish. So, how can we make sure the ideas we’re hoping to express come across confidently everywhere from a one-on-one huddle, to a packed auditorium? Matt Abrahams is an expert on sounding confident when speaking on the fly, and he’s the author of the number one best-selling book: “Think Faster, Talk Smarter: How to Speak Successfully When You’re Put on the Spot.” He shares his best advice on how to become better speakers (and listeners!) in any situation. In Mailbag, we hear from a listener who is wondering if Roth 401(k)s make sense as a high-income earner, and we chat with a woman who needs an executor to handle her estate.
