In this leadership training session, we were introduced to Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (RADA). The session was focused primarily on āawarenessā during presentation or before an audience. It is important that we know that the audience feel before they think. Be aware of this. It is an essential tip for any leader or aspiring leader.
A leader should be aware of their Status. In this instance, status means space and time, which makes up voice. At any given time, it is important that a leader know their status as this will affect how they are being perceived by others.
There are high(loud), low(sympathetic) and optimal status. For example, the Obamas of this world can pass for optimal status while Trump can be seen as high status. You can come up with a low status person, I donāt mind reading.
Another factor is Hoisting– This involves speaking with authority and confidence whilst being relaxed at the same time. For instance, your approach when you are in your home.
The way you treat people when you see them at your doorstep should be similar to how you treat them any other place ( i.e work, Uni. etc). You would want to welcome them and treat them nice, I supposeš. That energy should stay same. In another post, I will be talking about energies in leadership.
A good host can be a good influencer because they know what to say and know exactly how they want their audience to feel. To be honest with you, I enjoyed this very session. I will like to know what you think too. These are very practical approaches anyone can adopt and improve on themselves.
To be continued.
