The Problem: Everyone deserves to be heard, and yet…
We've all experienced misunderstandings, whether triggered by an unintended nonverbal, or with a word-choice that seemed to sow confusion in our communication partner. Sometimes misunderstandings can be prevented with the addition of a few accent additions. Other times, since since 95% of communication is broadcast without saying a word, the speaker might prefer to use cultural-specific gestures to engender a sense of familiarity within his audience. Of course, there are myriad other scenarios.
The Solution: Your highest communication potential is our singular goal
Accentuate Now supports public speaking effectiveness with personalized consultation and a robust yet practical curriculum. Since nonverbals can so effectively contradict or complement verbal content, our clients receive a thorough Nonverbal Communication Analysis vis-à-vis Standard American English norms as a part of their individualized evaluation. Our curriculum is designed to remove communication distractions and potential “out-group” biases so the speaker can more quickly put her audience at ease and win “buy-in”.
