How to Master Using Your Voice Effectively

Every time we meet someone new, we put them through a kind of “evaluation” through all our senses. Contrary to popular belief, the information we gather through our eyes are not the most important. No wonder it is said that “the clothes do not make the man.” The most important information actually comes from our ears and the interaction that takes place during the meeting. The same happens not only on a personal level, but also on a social, romantic and especially on a work level. In fact, when we show up for a job interview, what may be mistaken for a simple chat is a truly this kind of meeting. So what is the assessment session that Inborn Voice offers?

Milena Origgi is one of more than 100 CEOs who have decided to volunteer their time and international experience to shape and mold a number of women who have set their sights on becoming leaders in their field. Among the initiative’s godmothers, in addition to Mylena Vocal Coach, we also find prominent influencers such as Clio Zammatteo.

What is meant by the term diction? What does diction teach and why is it important to have good diction?

Before answering these questions, let’s start with an important premise: the key to any form of communication is the integral reception of the message you want to send.

Just as good calligraphy serves to make a handwritten message easier to read, good articulation and pronunciation serve to make an oral message fluid and more understandable.

It should be understood early on that diction in the strict sense is only an embellishment, an element that facilitates communication, and not a substantial part of it.

Anyone can experience a “stage fright” which is the fear of facing an audience or public.

What was once referred to as “stage fright” or “rookie panic,” today is referred to as “microphone panic” because it is an element that usually connects all of these events.

It happens all the time to actors, singers and entertainment professionals, even those who don’t even have to speak, like dancers or extras.

It is something that has existed since the dawn of time: we can read of similar episodes already in the accounts of the ancient Greeks and Romans, the “creators” of Theater and Oratory.

Every artist has faced this problem at least once in his or her career. In fact, as Mylena Vocal Coach says, stage fright goes hand in hand with the desire to express oneself and communicate in the best possible way.

Mastering your voice and emotions is key to presenting successfully, laying out ideas and plans in a concise and successful way.

What does “Elevator Pitch” mean?

Elevator Pitch is an idiom that could be expressed as “quick and short chat” or even better “flash presentation“. The idea behind this communication technique is to take advantage of short moments of “dead” time, such as the time you spend in an elevator between floors, to introduce yourself concisely and immediately empathize with the other party.

You need to be prepared because when you have the opportunity to “accidentally” meet someone important, perhaps at a job interview or a business meeting, you have at most a few seconds to grab their attention and immediately define why we are important to them.
