How can you make a soft voice sound confident? This is a question I commonly receive from emerging leaders. Many people have a soft voice. And this can prevent you from sounding confident and assertive in business.
This is a situation that I’ve faced in my life, particularly in my early 20s. Since then I’ve learned how to incorporate communication strategies so that I sound more confident and assertive.
In this episode, I delve into the question of “How can you make a soft voice sound confident” and provide a structured answer with actionable strategies you can implement. I also share a personal story of how I’ve had to overcome a soft voice in my life.
