During the recession, when I was doing training for numerous job training groups, the members who were last hired tended to be the introverts, who were often told they didn\u2019t sound enthusiastic or passionate enough about the prospective job. Similarly, introverts who were working often found they didn\u2019t get a promotion for the same reason.<\/span><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">It\u2019s obviously not genetic, but most training, such as in business skills, is directed towards extroverts, whose brains process thoughts more rapidly (but not as deeply).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Introvert brains take in more stimulation in a given situation and process it more deeply before producing a response.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">In a fast-paced culture such as ours, this neurological brain lag results in introverts getting used to feeling left behind and, as a consequence, a little insecure. In fact, we often get left out of conversations for much of our lives because of that slower response time so we don\u2019t get much practice raising our voices or using them powerfully.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">When we finally do get a chance to get a word in, our lack of practice makes us feel and sound insecure.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Here\u2019s one of the exercises I do with my clients who want to appear and sound more powerful, but before you do it, ask yourself, \u201cAm I willing to commit as much as ten minutes every day to sounding more confident?\u201d<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Pick a piece of poetry or a song that is very meaningful to you, preferably one that raises your energy level.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Stand in a Power Pose: Stand up, with your feet apart, shoulders relaxed, feeling a string attached to the top of your head, pulling your whole body up.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Speak the words of the piece you have selected s l o w l y, with emphasis.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Emphasize the points you feel are most important by slowing down and lowering the tone of your voice.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Avoid letting your voice drop at the end of each sentence or phrase (sounds dreary).<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">While you are speaking, imagine:<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">To whom are you speaking?

Imagine your listener at different distances from you; project\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">your voice to reach that person.<\/span><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"> Pause every now and then, if necessary, to regain good posture and breathe.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">As you do this exercise every day, pay more attention to singers and speakers who attract you. Watch how and when they emphasize words, speak up or slow down.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">It may feel exhausting at first, but just as with any exercise, it gets easier and even exhilarating the more you practice. You will feel rewarded when you find yourself speaking and your listeners are leaning forward eagerly to hear what you have to say.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">It\u2019s particularly important to warm up by doing this exercise any day you expect to be participating in a group conversation, having a job interview, or giving a presentation.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 <span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">And remember the story of the New Yorker\u2019s reply to the tourist who asked how you get to Carnegie Hall, \u201cPractice, practice, practice.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;\">Other things that get in the way of good introvert communication include <strong>self-criticism and perfectionism<\/strong>, but this exercise is a good way to start.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is \u201cPersuasive Introvert\u201d an oxymoron?
