Christine demonstrates how the force, pressure or volume applied to a syllable, word or phrase influences how your message is received in a presentation or conversation. She defines Speaking Power, giving examples of how failing to understand stress techniques when speaking can result in a speaker's message being misunderstood or not being heard at all.

BEST MOMENTS
“A well-used punch of power vibrated within the resonators offers a delightful quality to a speaker’s overall tone.”
“Variability is key. Too soft, an audience may lose trust. Too loud and a speaker can appear overly dominant or emotional and push people away.”
“Languages use stress differently. Some apply the same degree of power to every syllable. Some apply the same degree of duration to every syllable, the same pace. Spanish and French are examples of that.”
“One of the most memorable speeches ever given and still one of the most famous speeches today draws on both of these techniques, three or more, the powerful rule of three when speaking, and on the building to a climax. Which speech, you ask? Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream."
“It’s particularly important to understand this aspect of English, that we weaken and strengthen sounds, that we link certain sounds together.”
