Guidance from Gurus: Communication Mastery with Matt Abrahams

Learn to engage in conversations with confidence and mastery

I know firsthand how challenging it can be to hold conversations in stressful situations. That’s why mastering effective communication in these moments is crucial for us. It helps us connect with others, understand their needs, and navigate unexpected speaking scenarios with confidence and success.

In this episode, I speak to Matt Abrahams. Matt is a professor at Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business, where he teaches strategic communication. His online talks garner millions of views, and he hosts the popular award-winning podcast Think Fast, Talk Smart. He’s also written a new book titled, “Think Faster, Talk Smarter, How to Speak Successfully When You’re Put on the Spot.”

Key takeaways:

Practice speaking in spontaneous situations to build confidence and improve skills
Seek feedback from mentors, coaches, or peers to identify areas for improvement
Use techniques like deep breathing, purposeful movement, and holding something cold to manage anxiety symptoms
Reframe spontaneous speaking situations as opportunities for connection and collaboration
Utilize story structures or logical frameworks to package information and enhance audience understanding
Adopt a positive approach and attitude toward learning and improving communication skills
Focus on being concise and streamlining ideas to increase impact in spontaneous communication

Tune in to this episode of SMARTER RICHER BRAVER.

Remember that much of what is talked about on this podcast is stuff that’s not typically talked about to young people – and it should be. It’s stuff that you need to know so that you can lead a life that’s smarter, richer, and braver.
