What are the dangers of persuasive speakers?
Hey, it’s Anwell, and this is Soft Power Leaders, by Brantio. We help brilliant women in Biotech and Pharma gain influence.
Are you a persuasive speaker?
Persuasive speakers dominate meetings. They enthusiastically jump right into the conversation and speak with confidence. They're quick with ideas, especially when there's little data and no apparent answers.
Being quick on your feet is an incredible skill to have. But are persuasive speakers effective?
Often, the loud ones get all the attention. Usually, the quiet ones like to stay silent. But don't mistake staying quiet for being passive. The quiet ones are actively observing. They are taking in information and processing it deeply. They're thinking through all the risks and possible outcomes. They notice elements other people miss.
They prefer not to speak until they have a better handle on the information, especially when there's little data and no apparent answers.
This, too, is an incredible skill to have.
Critical decisions happen when there's little data. This is when the stakes are highest.
When you make crucial decisions, how do you make sure your team gets the benefits of both types of people's perspectives?
Thanks for listening! Now go make it happen.
