Ever been listening to a conversation or a presentation where the speaker was continually injecting a
"you know," a
"but" or an
"ah"?
They will say a few words, pause, then say
"ah," "you know,"
or "but," then continue with another few words and repeat the "but," "you know" or "ah."
And while I want to be a respectful listener, my patience runs out and enough is enough!
Here's why.
It's been my experience that those guilty of these injections are totally unconscious of them and will continue to insert the words into the conversation or presentation in the future.
Follow me on this, please?
The speaker/presenter is completely, totally, absolutely unaware of the injections.
They don't know they are doing it.
If they knew, they would stop, eh?
So, two things to correct the matter.
The easiest is when the speaker asks for questions or comments.
You'll be doing them a favor by commenting on their injections and saving future audiences the grief.
No opportunity for questions, then track down the speaker and the individual who booked them and tell them of all the junk word "clutter" they use.
Come have
breakfast with us any Wednesday and we'll see if you inject junk into your conversations or presentations and if so, how it can be easily corrected.
Breakfast not possible because of time or location constraints?
Then give me a call or connect on Skype.

Market Expansion ~ Business Development
Entrepreneurial Education ~ Professional Growth
Since 1983!
|
A not-for-profit cooperative association of independent businesses, founded from an economic development research project on the
importance of small business development conducted by the
Houston Chamber of Commerce in the late 1970's.
With our first Co-Op meeting held March 14, 1983, to date we've worked with 65,587
people, generating 44,384 tips, leads, referrals and items of new business, generating revenues exceeding one billion dollars, founded the Entrepreneurial Development Center - Houston's first and Texas' oldest small business incubator and co-working space, First Houston Small Business Seed Capital Fund - literally the first small business seed capital fund in Houston, the Womens Business Center - first business incubator for women business owners in the country with residency space and the Virtual Business Center - the first remote business incubator in the world - all totally without public funding, grants, gifts, donations or contributions.
Our Entrepreneurial Research Division conclusively demonstrated "entrepreneurship" could be taught in a classroom environment, resulting in colleges and universities, globally,
commencing entrepreneurial courses.
Here are some of the organizations we've worked with.
We grow companies, build careers and advance ideas.
