Your Speaking Stories Must Contain Dialogue Public Speaking

When you’re telling a story it’s crucial that you relive actual conversations with real people that you share the dialogue.

The problem most people have is they become this boring narrator looking down and the customer explained to me he was dissatisfied with our level of service.

See how boring that sounds how sort of clinical it sounds.

It’s much more effective to say well Jane Smathers said T.J. I can’t believe you haven’t delivered the product yet.

I’m going to demand a refund and I said well calm down.

That’s dialogue when you’re actually reliving a real conversation with a real person.

What they said to you and what you said back.

We all do this all the time talking to friends family one on one a client calls us on the phone at the office we all tell stories using dialogue.

The problem is when we’re getting it to give a so-called formal speech we tend to strip the dialogue out of everything and we boil it down to what’s bland boring essence.

Don’t do it.

The dialogue is what makes it interesting captivating gives us it as your audience a sense of being there the flavor of it.

That’s why it’s crucial so you must have dialogue when telling your story.

And no you don’t have to make it up just relive actual conversations you had.
