Notes and summary for myself The seven deadly sins of Speaking 1. Gossip: Speaking negatively about someone who is not present. People will not trust you because a while later, you will gossip about them. 2. Judging: It is hard to listen to someone who consistently judge you during a conversation. 3. Negativity: Having a negative viewpoint on things. 4. Complaining: which is mere viral misery. Could be on anything, politics, sports, or the weather. 5. Excuses: Not taking responsibility for our actions and being a blame-thrower 6. Exaggeration: Drawing an imaginary image and inflating stuff excessively. It can get to the point of outright **lying**. 7. Dogmatism: stating your opinions as if they are facts without consideration of an evidence to support your claims. In other words, Bombarding people with biased opinions on a certain topic. - Foundation of powerful speech (HAIL) 1. Honesty: Being clear and straight. Not using deception and lies. But using brutal and unnecessary honesty could hurt people. "Honesty tempered with Love". 2. Authenticity: Being yourself and not imitating a non-genuine persona. "Standing in your own truth". 3. Integrity: Be your word. Do what you say. Be trustworthy, and take responsibility. 4. Love: Wishing people well. No judgement. - Toolbox of Speech (Voice) 1. Register: Talk from your chest, not the nose or throat. "We vote for the politicians with lower voices". People associate depth with power and authority. 2. Timbre: The way the voice feels. "Rich, Smooth, Warm, like hot chocolate." It is a skill that can be trained. 3. Prosody: Talking with enthusiasm, having a rhythmic voice, and not being monotonic like a robot. Avoid repetitive prosody as if every statement was a question. 4. Pace: Talk normally and slow right down to... *Emphasize*. Talking fast or slow at the right time is key in conveying your point. 5. Silence: A powerful tool to bring attention. Should not be filled with filler words such as UH's and UM's. 6. Pitch: To deliver an idea or ask a question and being understood. (The caps-lock of speech) 7. Volume: The quieter the better in bringing attention. But don't be too quiet all the time and don't be a broadcaster too. Pay attention to your loudness. - Warm up the toolbox of voice 1. Arms up, take a deep breath and sigh. 2. Lips: (BA BA BA) 3. Lips: Horse sound 4. Tongue: Exaggerated (LA LA LA) 5. Tongue: Roll an R (RRRRR) 6. The siren (WEEEE [High] yoooo [Low]) Speaking is one part of the puzzle because having a good conversation also depends on being a good listener. Edit: Reconstructed the phrasing of the point of dogmatism. Thank you for all the beautiful replies.Happy to make your day a bit easier :)
Judgment is good but only as a starting point, that should follow with "but I can help you...." Unfortunately, most judgments are about: now go and fix your own problems. Like, if I could do it alone don't you think I wouldn't do it already?!
@@romanstryzhyk9156 New Testament was written by Greeks and they were "smart ones" and philosophers of the ancient times. Problem is, Romans highjacked it and changed the meaning and turned metaphorical story to literal ones, it became the story of materialistic magic. But then Revelation was added, like the fairy in the Sleeping Beauty altered the witches curse, so did they added "Apocalypse" part in it. But Apocalypse literally mean "unveiling", finding something that was hidden - the hidden meaning and the truth that if you take story of Jesus as metaphor and not literal story of a man who died and then zombified, you still can make it all fit and meaningful. Like plot twist gives you the key to re-read the book or re-watch the movie and go through the same path but now there's completely different meaning. And that key, actually, is what brings the "destruction of the world as we know it" because once you see you cannot unsee and nothing is the same any more.. New Earth, but just from the cultural perspective, we'll still have to stop the bullshit we're doing in polluting everything around us. Because once we destroy the Paradise on Earth, there'll be nothing to enjoy. As for the "gnashing of teeth" (anger) and "weeping" (sorrow) - that's reserved for the people who'll realize that everything they thought they knew - was a lie. Unfortunately, Kubler-Ross realized anger comes way before sorrow, so you'd be stoned before they get to the "sorry" part. Better leave it as it is then, in a century it won't matter anyway. Everyone's back to the pre-birth realm, the void.
"There's nothing wrong with a LITTLE BIT of silence, is there?" Well he said a little bit and you left it out completely.... it entirely changed the meaning...
I wish to remember this one ... But there would be damn looooong cues everywhere. Not to mention all the phone calls that start with one-minute silence :D
Always good to listen to these speeches to improve your own emotional intelligence, even if it's only a little bit of improvement. Charisma and communications are a real void for most people these days.😢

"People prefer voices which are rich, smooth, warm like hot chocolate" Julian said, knowing his voice sounded rich, smooth and warm, like hot chocolate.
Four things I learned from watching this talk 1. "Seven deadly sins of speaking to avoid" 1) gossip -> I need to work on this sin 2) judging -> I need to work on this sin 3) negativity -> I need to work on this sin 4) complaining -> I need to work on this sin 5) excuses 6) lying (embroidery, exaggeration) 7) dogmatism (confusion between fact and opinion) 2. what I need to say: four powerful cornerstones of speech to make a change in the world c.f.

Gil Su Kim You made a summary and shared it with everyone. You must have been the nicest kid in class when you were in school. (Or, now that I think of it, maybe you still are. I don´t know your age.) Thank you, I appreciate it.
+Gil Su Kim I reckon he missed one: Defensiveness (and I did wonder if the list should include fake humility/the apology reflex, but I suppose that comes under Lying, with a hint of Excuses)
Did he just influence such a large group of people within 10mins to make them stand and do some warmups like that? He proved his technique to be true. Amazing!
Wow it's so amazing. People from all around want to hear and interact, they come and sit in silence with others to hear someone elevated on a stage with an electrically-amplified voice. Lo and Behold, they are listening to the person on an elevated stage with an amplified voice! IT MUST BE A MIRACLE!

I assumed this would be your basic talk on vocal coaching, how to carry and conduct oneself in public speaking. But he went to a deeper level and emphasized how we should speak about goodness, light, and positivity ❤ A concise message that hit the mark precisely ❤
The trick is, whenever you're talking to people have confidence in yourself don't look shy, look into people's eye, don't bow your head down a minute unless you checking the shoes or down-wear. But first hit your throat, Mnmn Mnmm... •••Men speak with a little base in it, avoid speaking to fast. •••Ladies speak calmly men automatically like that. Avoid, Eh, ehm, etc in the middle of your speech. Just pause and continue with the next word,then everyone in the audience will automatically see you as an intelligent person subconsciously. It's a human trick.
True. Also, How about just saying the TRUTH? Which DOES include Gossiping, Judging etc. How abt emphasizing that ppl who ONLY tak positive are Pretentious Liars and are NOT Truthful. Like this man- Julian Treasure could be one of them. I am sick of those "Wanna be a Good Human Hypocrites" !! Just be Truthful
@@euphoria156 You're right, it's in the confidence bracket...Who ever speak the truth is confident and does not care about what anyone thinks. As long as it's the truth, it's done. *Some people also lie boldly tho
"If you wish people with love its really hard to judge them" , its absolutely true . I try to do this everyday . No matter what wish people well and you will find yourself free of all the negativity. And a smile from that stranger will make your day
Vocal Exercises begin at 7:50 : 1. Raise arms above head, take a deep breath, sigh loudly. "AAaaaaaaahhhh." 2. Warm up lips."Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop." 3. Blow Raspberries. "Bbbbbrrlllthhhhh." 4. Exaggerate LA's. "LA. LA. LA. LA. LA." 5. Roll an R. Like champagne for the tongue. "RrrRrRrrRrRrrRrR." 6. The Siren. The WE's are always high and the oo's are always low. "WWWEEEEEeeeeeeeeeooooooowwWWWEEEEEeeeeooooooooowwwwwwwwwww." I enjoyed writing this.
Conversation and speaking is truly an intricate art. The mastery of it takes discipline composure and consistency, among many other things. I now take every single interaction I have, whether it be a physical interaction or via any digital format text messaging, etc. I take it as a test for myself every time. I then rate my conversion based on how well I applied this great information to work on all my weaknesses each time I strive to do better than my last interaction. How to correctly apply this information is key. Thank you for sharing this information with us all. To anyone reading this comment, I really do wish you all the best. The more we practice, the better we all become so start now and take action immediately speak light and positivity all day every day. Children of the light stay close to all those who speak and live life positively.
If these types of interpersonal skills along with mindfulness meditation were taught in schools, we would live in a much more sane world. Intelligence isn't just about memorizing facts.
+MatthieuAmherst Actually mindfulness meditation seems to be what is being called the third wave of therapy and is becoming more popular every year among therapists. Some are even saying it could overtake CBT. I've found both CBT and mindfulness to be very useful. It's a great tool for therapists, so I don't think it will put them out of a job. Remember that they work to help people, so many of them would do well to spread the word.
I just wanna share something that happened to my voice, to see if others experienced this too. I used to have a higher pitched voice. But through the years where I have done a lot of self education, I saw that my voice was changing. It was going deeper. The more I found myself and felt better in this world, the lower my voice got. I literally have found my own voice now haha. Now when I speak I feel more calm, and people listen to me way more! 😊
"Understanding would be the norm" I love this and I live for this! It's so important to be present and always go into a conversation with the goal to understand as much as you can and if you can't -> accept.

Despite prevailing market uncertainty, those who navigate adeptly and identify favorable opportunities can still capitalize on potential wealth accumulation.
If you're not well-versed in market intricacies, seeking advice from a consultant or investment coach is the optimal route. Personally, consulting a professional has enabled me to navigate the market successfully, resulting in a portfolio growth of approximately 65% since January. While it might seem straightforward, I truly believe this remains the most potent strategy to enter the field effectively.
I have been thinking about how to grow my reserve by at least 40% or more within months. I will be grateful if you can give tips or anything on how to make good market picks and how I can get my portfolio diversified and balanced in order to meet up my target.
@@Believer292 Do your homework and choose one that has strategies to help your portfolio grow consistently and steadily. ‘’Camille Alicia Garcia” is responsible for the success of my portfolio, and I believe she possesses the qualifications and expertise to meet your goals.
@@andrew.alonzo I appreciate this advice, and I'd like to mention that "Camille Alicia Garcia" comes across as exceptionally well-informed. Upon discovering her online profile, I carefully reviewed her resume, educational history, and credentials, and I must admit, they left a strong impression. I took the initiative to get in touch with her, and I've successfully scheduled a session.
I had saved this to ‘Watch Later’ for quite sometime now, but this morning, while still in bed, I had the sudden urge to watch it, and I am so glad I did. I now know why I have problem with getting people’s attention when I speak to them. Most of this applies to me, I put my hands up. I am grateful for this video. It has done me an immeasurable amount of good.
I was a professional pilot back in the days when carbon mikes were the only choice. As a female, I learned to lower my voice’s pitch in order to activate the carbon crystals. Discovered that I also got a lot more respect and was heard better when I used the deeper richer timbre. Also stopped ending all sentences like a question. That really eliminated a lot of confusion with air traffic control.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I worked with school age children, and was led by The All Knowing one to learn about these styles and forms of communicating. Really does make a difference!! Especially when shaping and cultivating a young humans learning experience. SHALOM
When I was learning to fly (PPL) was told that I sounded like a mouse by my second instructor. I'd already done 13 hours with my first instructor. Lost my confidence to fly as easily as that. (1st instructor left as got a job with an airline). He was all the qualities needed to be an top class instructor because I flew my first solo under his guidance. My 2nd instructor wasn't and I gave up flying sadly. How to speak made all the difference to me. Will always appreciate the first instructor for an amazing life experience. Second instructor can't take that away.
Coming from a family who is high strung, intelligent, passionate and constantly talking over each other (remarkably well, I might add) this calm, deep voiced way of conversation not only seems hard, but would make me virtually invisible if I tried it with them. This might work on strangers, but still seems like a difficult adjustment to make into a habit..
I can just imagine a bunch of people applying for a job position, all gathered outside the boss' office going: "RRRRRRRRR" "BA! BA! BA! BA!" "WEEEEEYYOOOOOOOWEEE"
I have never taken notes throughout an entire, first watch of a piece. I kept pausing and rewinding every couple moments to do so, it was honestly a fantastic speech.
Treasure identifies several common issues that prevent people from feeling listened to when they speak, including: 1. Gossip: Speaking negatively about those who are not present. 2. Judgment: Forming judgments about others while they are speaking, which hinders true listening. 3. Negativity: A pessimistic attitude that obstructs constructive communication. 4. Complaining: Habitually complaining without offering solutions. 5. Blame: Failing to take responsibility for one’s actions. 6. Exaggeration: Using overly dramatic or inaccurate language. 7. Dogmatism: Mixing facts with opinions irresponsibly. Solutions Offered Treasure presents four pillars for effective speaking: 1. Honesty: Speaking truthfully and clearly. 2. Authenticity: Being oneself and speaking with integrity. 3. Integrity: Saying what you mean and meaning what you say. 4. Love: Wishing the best for others, which creates a positive atmosphere in communication. Vocal Techniques Treasure also shares several vocal techniques to enhance speaking ability, including: - Adjusting pitch from high to low to add strength to the voice. - Using intonation and rhythm to capture the audience's attention. - Employing silence strategically for greater impact. Conclusion Treasure emphasizes that if we want our voices to be heard, we must pay attention to how we speak and the environment around us. By applying these principles, we can create a world where effective communication and mutual understanding are commonplace. NPM: 24083010004 Name: Saif Ali Zaky Ashiblie
@@Oleg_Ivanov. I don't know. I haven't been able to stop it completely, but I feel that focusing on what we don't like just makes it bigger in our experience.
Me to my crush: hey I wanna talk to you about something *Starts excercising my voice in front of her* Her: leaves in silence Me:*still excercising* wEeEEeOOoO
boy have I learned that public speaking is not just to simply speak in front of an audience, there are broader and deeper aspects that make one’s speech interesting; where you would actually listen to what they are saying. It is compelling to learn the many ways you could competently speak in front of an audience, more than just articulating words and thoughts but rather, the way you speak those words and thoughts. Great video! great speech!
Speaking is one thing but the tone in which you speaks with is of utmost importance. Such a confident and clear speaker: he catches your attn within the first 1 minute with his calm tone and eye contact. Alot to take away. 💯
Man didn't take a single step throughout his speech of around 10 minutes, yet was sounded so perfect with everything he said. Julian Treasure, his name speaks for his class. This is by far the best TED talk ever. 💯
I really loved the way, the idea for this talk, begin with a problem, suggest a solution, offer Hands-on experience for the audience. Beautiful sir, thoroughly enjoyed every frame of this video. The activity towards the end, I believe many of us will be a different speaker after that. Thank you for this.
This is an awesome talk...direct to the point, of being a conscious speaker. So love the tips and techniques. He's a great communicator, he got me glued.
Julian explains how our words, tone, and delivery shape whether people truly listen to us, emphasizing honesty and vocal variety. It made me realize how often I speak without much thought, and I’m excited to start applying her tips to see how they change the way people respond to me.
I was a speech & debate champion in HS & college (Harvard) and then a debate and speech coach at the HS and college levels for more than 30 years, as well as a founder of urban speech and debate. Everything Julian Treasure says here is exactly what high school speech teachers try to convey to their students each and every day; policy debaters try to persuade by facts and logic, whereas events like oratory involve rhetorical methods (some of which are mentioned in the talk) for persuasion. These essentially are known to us as LOGOS and ETHOS; the best speakers can not only control register, timbre, prosody, pace, silence, pitch and volume, but also can start a speech with a hook, an introduction, a topic sentence, 2-3 arguments, surrounded by rhetorical flourishes (three words starting with the same consonant is a famous one) a conclusion and a closing hook. I'm lucky enough to have been teaching the last few years standardized tests, and getting across how to write, or how to speak, is a delight with young kids. They should all watch this You Tube!
My daughter is a freshman in HS and is taking honors classes. We just watched this today for her homework project to study Pathos, Ethos and Logos. It was a pleasure working side by side with her. I am a little concerned because she is so focused on performance and the end goal of attending Brown University that I sometimes feel she is missing the value of effective communication and how empowering that can be in infinite circumstances. Do you have any words of wisdom that will honor her enthusiasm and allow for her to get her hand on the heart beat of the moment. I am only now going to college at age 54, so I'm a bit of a late bloomer and she is sure to pass me up academically.
@@kimilivingston2521I'm just 29 and not a communication coach. But I do agree with your view on how a good communication is more powerful and important than a single instance of getting into a good university. Great speakers may or may not have finished their college but they can get many great things done by simply communicating. Wars can be stopped, business deals can be brokered, true friends can be gained, experiences can be learned. To have such skills under your belt means you can walk through the world without the riches or the certificates but do not suffer a single day. I'm sure you're an amazing parent for seeing this point for your daughter. You don't need other people, just use your own words to teach her.
This was truly a great speech, clearly the speaker knows and uses his theory very well. Everyone in the aucience was interested, everyone watching the video probably as well. I really wonder what would happen if more people learned and used this theory, not only for big speeches but also for normal conversations. As the speaker said, the human voice is very powerful, and I think the world would be a better place if more people knew how to use it correctly.
Communication is about human connection. Being able to communicate effectively is one of the best life habits. Good listening is among the most important principles of great communication. It is common for most people to listen not with the intent of understanding, but with the intent of replying. Listening with the intent to understand is to fully understand that person intellectually and emotionally. You ensure that you understand by repeating back to them what they said and mirroring their emotions. By doing so, you help them structure their own thoughts and feelings. This type of listening can lead to truly open and trusting communication.
Yeah; that's what love is. I can't believe you millenials; what with sleeping couples in bed that are weirded out with saying "I love you" like it's perverted; damn kids need to get off the lawn that is the English language and metaphysical concepts of altruism.
Out of all the suggestions listed, I think "Pace" is perhaps the most difficult to implement. We live in a world where people don't have the patience to listen to someone who speaks slowly. You'll get interrupted constantly, or people will simply stop listening because you're taking up too much of their time. Too frequently you'll have to say what's on your mind really quickly, or not at all. Really, everything mentioned is an excellent practice, but it's only useful when speaking with someone who practices the same principles.
This is what makes arguments harder to because if you take too much time to think your response they lose interest but to quickly and you say something incorrectly to what you actually want to say
Technology is litteraly changing our brain function. Keeping the brain constantly wired with cell phones, text facebook, email, TH-cam and other social media is giving us short attention spams. Customer service, sales person even owners of businesses who sell for a living don't take the time to charm a customer anymore. Worst thing is that it's even changing the women's brain who are known to be more expresive and detailed. Even they don't like repeating things more than once. LOL!
+Charity Diary I totally agree - in my university, people think that those who speak faster are actually more intelligent because they can squeeze more content/ having much more things to say about something than someone who speaks slower (because that person is just trying to drag out the presentation and doesn't actually have much to say)
This was truly a great video to improve our skill in speaking especially giving a speech. The speaker giving us some tips how to deliver a powerful speech. He makes contact with the audience by giving a little joke while talking so that the audience isn’t bored and interested in the material. Such a confident and clear speaker because every words he says can be understood. In the last video he invites the audience to put into practice the tips that he has already given. Amazing!!!!️ thank you for the new knowledge
This is great insights especially the seven deadly sina of communications. The society, our parents ... we heard them gossiping so our brain functions in a way that this is normal but it is not. It is an illusion that fog up with negativity. People even gossips just to feel close to one another. It is okay to vent your problems but never gossips in day to day basis. It is very unhealthy.
What's amazing to me about this is that the exercises he has the audience do at the end are the exact things my 1 year old nephew does all the time. He's literally teaching himself how to talk!
I love this!❤😊❤ I love seeing people be able to speak confidently, and to use their voice in a way which is both powerful, but also compassionate and empathetic.❤😊❤ I love Julian's point about how when we're speaking, we can really use our voice to create an environment of warmth and connection - by changing our delivery and tone. I love how that is able to help people feel so much more understood ❤😊❤
This is really helpful. I have once used some of the tactics but without knowing the full set. I think that I must repeat this video before each speech I need to deliver. May God bless you!
The human voice: It's the instrument we all play. It's the most powerful sound in the world, probably. It's the only one that can start a war or say "I love you." And yet many people have the experience that when they speak, people don't listen to them. And why is that? How can we speak powerfully to make change in the world? What I'd like to suggest, there are a number of habits that we need to move away from. I've assembled for your pleasure here seven deadly sins of speaking. I'm not pretending this is an exhaustive list, but these seven, I think, are pretty large habits that we can all fall into. First, gossip. Speaking ill of somebody who's not present. Not a nice habit, and we know perfectly well the person gossiping, five minutes later, will be gossiping about us. Second, judging. We know people who are like this in conversation, and it's very hard to listen to somebody if you know that you're being judged and found wanting at the same time. Third, negativity. You can fall into this. My mother, in the last years of her life, became very negative, and it's hard to listen. I remember one day, I said to her, "It's October 1 today," and she said, "I know, isn't it dreadful?" (Laughter) It's hard to listen when somebody's that negative. (Laughter) And another form of negativity, complaining. Well, this is the national art of the U.K. It's our national sport. We complain about the weather, sport, about politics, about everything, but actually, complaining is viral misery. It's not spreading sunshine and lightness in the world. Excuses. We've all met this guy. Maybe we've all been this guy. Some people have a blamethrower. They just pass it on to everybody else and don't take responsibility for their actions, and again, hard to listen to somebody who is being like that. Penultimate, the sixth of the seven, embroidery, exaggeration. It demeans our language, actually, sometimes. For example, if I see something that really is awesome, what do I call it? (Laughter) And then, of course, this exaggeration becomes lying, and we don't want to listen to people we know are lying to us. And finally, dogmatism. The confusion of facts with opinions. When those two things get conflated, you're listening into the wind. You know, somebody is bombarding you with their opinions as if they were true. It's difficult to listen to that. So here they are, seven deadly sins of speaking. These are things I think we need to avoid. But is there a positive way to think about this? Yes, there is. I'd like to suggest that there are four really powerful cornerstones, foundations, that we can stand on if we want our speech to be powerful and to make change in the world. Fortunately, these things spell a word. The word is "hail," and it has a great definition as well. I'm not talking about the stuff that falls from the sky and hits you on the head. I'm talking about this definition, to greet or acclaim enthusiastically, which is how I think our words will be received if we stand on these four things. So what do they stand for? See if you can guess. The H, honesty, of course, being true in what you say, being straight and clear. The A is authenticity, just being yourself. A friend of mine described it as standing in your own truth, which I think is a lovely way to put it. The I is integrity, being your word, actually doing what you say, and being somebody people can trust. And the L is love. I don't mean romantic love, but I do mean wishing people well, for two reasons. First of all, I think absolute honesty may not be what we want. I mean, my goodness, you look ugly this morning. Perhaps that's not necessary. Tempered with love, of course, honesty is a great thing. But also, if you're really wishing somebody well, it's very hard to judge them at the same time. I'm not even sure you can do those two things simultaneously. So hail. Also, now that's what you say, and it's like the old song, it is what you say, it's also the way that you say it. You have an amazing toolbox. This instrument is incredible, and yet this is a toolbox that very few people have ever opened. I'd like to have a little rummage in there with you now and just pull a few tools out that you might like to take away and play with, which will increase the power of your speaking. Register, for example. Now, falsetto register may not be very useful most of the time, but there's a register in between. I'm not going to get very technical about this for any of you who are voice coaches. You can locate your voice, however. So if I talk up here in my nose, you can hear the difference. If I go down here in my throat, which is where most of us speak from most of the time. But if you want weight, you need to go down here to the chest. You hear the difference? We vote for politicians with lower voices, it's true, because we associate depth with power and with authority. That's register. Then we have timbre. It's the way your voice feels. Again, the research shows that we prefer voices which are rich, smooth, warm, like hot chocolate. Well if that's not you, that's not the end of the world, because you can train. Go and get a voice coach. And there are amazing things you can do with breathing, with posture, and with exercises to improve the timbre of your voice. Then prosody. I love prosody. This is the sing-song, the meta-language that we use in order to impart meaning. It's root one for meaning in conversation. People who speak all on one note are really quite hard to listen to if they don't have any prosody at all. That's where the word "monotonic" comes from, or monotonous, monotone. Also, we have repetitive prosody now coming in, where every sentence ends as if it were a question when it's actually not a question, it's a statement? (Laughter) And if you repeat that one, it's actually restricting your ability to communicate through prosody, which I think is a shame, so let's try and break that habit. Pace. I can get very excited by saying something really quickly, or I can slow right down to emphasize, and at the end of that, of course, is our old friend silence. There's nothing wrong with a bit of silence in a talk, is there? We don't have to fill it with ums and ahs. It can be very powerful. Of course, pitch often goes along with pace to indicate arousal, but you can do it just with pitch. Where did you leave my keys? (Higher pitch) Where did you leave my keys? So, slightly different meaning in those two deliveries. And finally, volume. (Loud) I can get really excited by using volume. Sorry about that, if I startled anybody. Or, I can have you really pay attention by getting very quiet. Some people broadcast the whole time. Try not to do that. That's called sodcasting, (Laughter) Imposing your sound on people around you carelessly and inconsiderately. Not nice. Of course, where this all comes into play most of all is when you've got something really important to do. It might be standing on a stage like this and giving a talk to people. It might be proposing marriage, asking for a raise, a wedding speech. Whatever it is, if it's really important, you owe it to yourself to look at this toolbox and the engine that it's going to work on, and no engine works well without being warmed up. Warm up your voice. Actually, let me show you how to do that. Would you all like to stand up for a moment? I'm going to show you the six vocal warm-up exercises that I do before every talk I ever do. Any time you're going to talk to anybody important, do these. First, arms up, deep breath in, and sigh out, ahhhhh, like that. One more time. Ahhhh, very good. Now we're going to warm up our lips, and we're going to go Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba. Very good. And now, brrrrrrrrrr, just like when you were a kid. Brrrr. Now your lips should be coming alive. We're going to do the tongue next with exaggerated la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Beautiful. You're getting really good at this. And then, roll an R. Rrrrrrr. That's like champagne for the tongue. Finally, and if I can only do one, the pros call this the siren. It's really good. It starts with "we" and goes to "aw." The "we" is high, the "aw" is low. So you go, weeeaawww, weeeaawww. Fantastic. Give yourselves a round of applause. Take a seat, thank you. (Applause) Next time you speak, do those in advance. Now let me just put this in context to close. This is a serious point here. This is where we are now, right? We speak not very well to people who simply aren't listening in an environment that's all about noise and bad acoustics. I have talked about that on this stage in different phases. What would the world be like if we were speaking powerfully to people who were listening consciously in environments which were actually fit for purpose? Or to make that a bit larger, what would the world be like if we were creating sound consciously and consuming sound consciously and designing all our environments consciously for sound? That would be a world that does sound beautiful, and one where understanding would be the norm, and that is an idea worth spreading. Thank you. (Applause)
I remember this was the first video I saw when I was learning English, now I can understand pretty must of it , almost everything what a huge difference, I'm pretty happy now
How did u learn it stronger? Do u have any tips to improve or extend my english skills. In my opinion i need to learn more vocabulary to understand the most phrases exactly. The most time I understand the sense, but i would like to get everything
You are a great public speaker. You did something great that emphasises the fact that you are a great public speaker: letting the audience participate.
I learned a while ago that most people don't really listen to what a person has to say. Speakers with either natural or trained voice dynamics can say complete bullcrap and people will swallow it. How things are said change the way the content is understood. Even if somebody says the most fascinating things in the world, but with a dull voice, he won't be listened by most. People assume that dull voice comes from a person who doesn't believe what he's saying, so any message is lost.
GG T87 there are also people with traumatic experience, which freezes their energy and makes their voice monotonous. Almost nobody listens to these people, even though they have a lot to say. It’s pretty sad that we idolize mediocre TH-camrs, who have only one talent - talking dynamically. Their content is often very shallow.
Rafał Dydkiem Machał, agree especially about shallow TH-camrs (who seemed to have learned it from this guy, or guys like him) and as was the content of this guy’s TED talk, too much emphasis on cliches and techniques rather than harmonizing with the soul of what you want to share and then bringing that out. I could have done a better job than this guy and I don’t fancy myself some great expert on public speaking. If this TED talk was to give the speech of his life in 18 minutes, as it says about TED talks in the description, i.e. the best short speech of his life about something his life is centered on or is emblematic of him, he must have a very dull and stupid life. It’s more emblematic of some stuffy Brit deigning to patronize us, even to gaslighting people, with his precious cliches while telling us something that actually adds nothing.
Rafal machal: you're right, these trained speakers are taught the art of speech, not speaking, anyone can speak. Only those who are intelligent and naturally energetic with somewhat a deep voice and tone are listened to naturally, I was once trained in speeches, and how they discovered this technique, I know there has been hundreds of millions of dollars spent trying to formulate what makes one person great at speeches while others are smarter with a more important message that are never heard. We used to say quote "It isn't what you say that matters it's how you say it." These words are true today just as they were then.
Here's a detailed scenario incorporating the points you provided, focusing on a workshop setting: **Scenario: The Power of Voice Workshop** **Setting:** A bright, airy community center room. Chairs are arranged in a semi-circle facing a central space where the workshop leader, Anya, stands. A whiteboard displays the words "HAIL" and "Seven Deadly Sins of Speaking." A small table holds a pitcher of water and glasses. **Participants:** A diverse group of 10-12 adults, ranging in age and background. They represent various professions and levels of public speaking experience - some are confident, others visibly nervous. **Workshop Leader:** Anya, a charismatic and experienced communication coach, exudes warmth and authority. **Workshop Flow:** **(1) Introduction (15 minutes):** Anya begins by engaging the participants with a thought-provoking question: "Have you ever felt unheard or dismissed? How did that make you feel?" She facilitates a brief, respectful sharing of experiences, highlighting the universal desire to be heard and understood. She then introduces the concept of the human voice as a powerful tool for change, giving examples of both positive and negative uses of voice (inspiring speeches vs. hateful rhetoric). **(2) The Seven Deadly Sins (10 minutes):** Anya presents the "Seven Deadly Sins of Speaking" (gossip, judging, negativity, complaining, excuses, exaggeration, dogmatism), explaining each sin with relatable examples and encouraging participants to identify their own weaknesses. She emphasizes the importance of mindful communication and the impact of these sins on relationships and personal effectiveness. **(3) The Four Cornerstones of Powerful Speaking (15 minutes):** Anya introduces the "HAIL" framework (Honesty, Authenticity, Integrity, Love). She elaborates on each cornerstone with practical examples, emphasizing the importance of balancing honesty with kindness and empathy. Participants are encouraged to reflect on how they can integrate these principles into their daily communication. **(4) The Vocal Toolbox (20 minutes):** Anya introduces the vocal techniques (register, timbre, prosody, pace, pitch, volume), explaining each concept clearly and demonstrating how they can be used to enhance the impact of speech. She incorporates interactive exercises: * **Register:** Participants experiment with speaking in different registers (high, low, mid-range), noting the different effects. * **Timbre:** Anya guides participants through simple vocal exercises to improve their timbre, focusing on breath control and resonance. * **Prosody:** Participants practice reading a short passage with different prosodic variations, emphasizing the impact of rhythm and intonation. * **Pace & Silence:** Anya demonstrates the power of pauses and varying pace to create emphasis and build suspense. * **Pitch & Volume:** Participants practice modulating their pitch and volume to express different emotions (joy, sadness, anger). **(5) Vocal Warm-ups (10 minutes):** Anya leads the group through a series of gentle vocal warm-up exercises (humming, lip trills, tongue rolls), emphasizing the importance of preparing the voice before speaking. **(6) Q&A and Conclusion (10 minutes):** Anya opens the floor for questions and provides personalized feedback to participants. She concludes by reiterating the importance of mindful and powerful communication, emphasizing the potential for positive change when people speak consciously and listen attentively. She leaves participants with a handout summarizing the key concepts and exercises covered in the workshop. This scenario provides a structured and engaging learning experience, incorporating both theoretical knowledge and practical application of the concepts. The interactive elements ensure active participation and promote a deeper understanding of the material.
I wish I could like this 1000 times.. I have fallen from grace in the absents of these practices... I certainly will be playing this every morning til these habits 'download" back into my daily interactions... I really needed the reminding of my 'tool box' ... Thank you Sir.
Now this is some powerful lesson and 41 million viewers made a choice to listen wow even most of us did what he asked even behind the screen this is power of word 👏👏
I believe that if there was a top of the most exciting TED videos, this one would probably be the first. Sometimes I catch myself thinking that I'm not being listened to. Wondering why it happens I was getting doubt about my own ideas and their use. But this man made things clear. He helped me realize that the voice, our powerful instrument, is likely not being used as it should be. Following his simple advices in my daily life made me speak my mind distinctly. This feeling is amazing. Thank you so much.
Our public speaking teacher taught us that to be able to conquer your fear of public speaking is to be (obviously) be confident, BUT for you to be confident you also have to totally KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. Tried that, and personally that is sooo effective. 😉

Thank you for sharing. I got some important information. 1. 7 deadly sins of speaking : Gossip, Judging, Negativity, Complaining, Excuses, Lying, Dogmatism. 2. " If you are wishing somebody's well, it is very hard to judge them at the same time. " 3. "Tempered with love, honesty is a great thing."
He didn't use any "uhm"s or "eh"s in his speech. Absolutely amazing.
At 5:10 but aside from that... Lol
+chawbok He noticed... look at his throat 5:13
Amazing? That stuff is basic. Somebody didn't listen to the exaggeration portion of this talk. ;)
+Niek de Gier Must have taken some time to master his speech. I need to learn this too.
+SilentMover95 A good way to avoid filler words and increase effectiveness is to make eye contact with whomever you are talking to.
Notes and summary for myself
The seven deadly sins of Speaking
1. Gossip: Speaking negatively about someone who is not present. People will not trust you because a while later, you will gossip about them.
2. Judging: It is hard to listen to someone who consistently judge you during a conversation.
3. Negativity: Having a negative viewpoint on things.
4. Complaining: which is mere viral misery. Could be on anything, politics, sports, or the weather.
5. Excuses: Not taking responsibility for our actions and being a blame-thrower
6. Exaggeration: Drawing an imaginary image and inflating stuff excessively. It can get to the point of outright **lying**.
7. Dogmatism: stating your opinions as if they are facts without consideration of an evidence to support your claims. In other words, Bombarding people with biased opinions on a certain topic.
- Foundation of powerful speech (HAIL)
1. Honesty: Being clear and straight. Not using deception and lies. But using brutal and unnecessary honesty could hurt people. "Honesty tempered with Love".
2. Authenticity: Being yourself and not imitating a non-genuine persona. "Standing in your own truth".
3. Integrity: Be your word. Do what you say. Be trustworthy, and take responsibility.
4. Love: Wishing people well. No judgement.
- Toolbox of Speech (Voice)
1. Register: Talk from your chest, not the nose or throat. "We vote for the politicians with lower voices". People associate depth with power and authority.
2. Timbre: The way the voice feels. "Rich, Smooth, Warm, like hot chocolate." It is a skill that can be trained.
3. Prosody: Talking with enthusiasm, having a rhythmic voice, and not being monotonic like a robot. Avoid repetitive prosody as if every statement was a question.
4. Pace: Talk normally and slow right down to... *Emphasize*. Talking fast or slow at the right time is key in conveying your point.
5. Silence: A powerful tool to bring attention. Should not be filled with filler words such as UH's and UM's.
6. Pitch: To deliver an idea or ask a question and being understood. (The caps-lock of speech)
7. Volume: The quieter the better in bringing attention. But don't be too quiet all the time and don't be a broadcaster too. Pay attention to your loudness.
- Warm up the toolbox of voice
1. Arms up, take a deep breath and sigh.
2. Lips: (BA BA BA)
3. Lips: Horse sound
4. Tongue: Exaggerated (LA LA LA)
5. Tongue: Roll an R (RRRRR)
6. The siren (WEEEE [High] yoooo [Low])
Speaking is one part of the puzzle because having a good conversation also depends on being a good listener.
Edit: Reconstructed the phrasing of the point of dogmatism.
Thank you for all the beautiful replies.Happy to make your day a bit easier :)
tbh thanks I was looking for a comment like your
You are an angel
May god bless you
Thank you all
Happy to help
THIS IS GOING TO HELP! Thank you!!!!
4:06 " If you are wishing somebody's well, it is very hard to judge them at the same time. " impressive expression, so real.
Judgment is good but only as a starting point, that should follow with "but I can help you...."
Unfortunately, most judgments are about: now go and fix your own problems.
Like, if I could do it alone don't you think I wouldn't do it already?!
Agreed. I need to remember this.
It was written in Holy Bible two thousands years ago, interesting fact. All new is forgotten old
@@romanstryzhyk9156 New Testament was written by Greeks and they were "smart ones" and philosophers of the ancient times. Problem is, Romans highjacked it and changed the meaning and turned metaphorical story to literal ones, it became the story of materialistic magic. But then Revelation was added, like the fairy in the Sleeping Beauty altered the witches curse, so did they added "Apocalypse" part in it. But Apocalypse literally mean "unveiling", finding something that was hidden - the hidden meaning and the truth that if you take story of Jesus as metaphor and not literal story of a man who died and then zombified, you still can make it all fit and meaningful. Like plot twist gives you the key to re-read the book or re-watch the movie and go through the same path but now there's completely different meaning. And that key, actually, is what brings the "destruction of the world as we know it" because once you see you cannot unsee and nothing is the same any more.. New Earth, but just from the cultural perspective, we'll still have to stop the bullshit we're doing in polluting everything around us. Because once we destroy the Paradise on Earth, there'll be nothing to enjoy. As for the "gnashing of teeth" (anger) and "weeping" (sorrow) - that's reserved for the people who'll realize that everything they thought they knew - was a lie.
Unfortunately, Kubler-Ross realized anger comes way before sorrow, so you'd be stoned before they get to the "sorry" part. Better leave it as it is then, in a century it won't matter anyway. Everyone's back to the pre-birth realm, the void.
@@ScorpioHR I found that description very interesting.
...Also, confusing, but maybe that's because I am sleep deprived.
His speech is like his head. Clean and smooth
😂😂😂😂
Underrated comment
Bro went personal😂
how can a person do compliment and assault at the same time
your comment has prosody as well.
"Theres nothing wrong with silence, is there?"
This man has obviously never been to dinner with my family.
😂
lol
Lol
"There's nothing wrong with a LITTLE BIT of silence, is there?"
Well he said a little bit and you left it out completely.... it entirely changed the meaning...
LMAO!!!
If everyone took an extra minute to think before speaking, the world would be such a better place.
I wish to remember this one ... But there would be damn looooong cues everywhere. Not to mention all the phone calls that start with one-minute silence :D
@@theb166-er3 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣good one❤
As my father used to say... make sure the brain is engaged before operating the mouth.
And the most awkward place lol
Eleven to the sun it will not be a problem as long as you’re not judging someone else.
this is the shortest 9 minute that have passed. What a life-changing speech.
Always good to listen to these speeches to improve your own emotional intelligence, even if it's only a little bit of improvement.
Charisma and communications are a real void for most people these days.😢
Dead A** channel! Lol

Careful, he's a Hero
"People prefer voices which are rich, smooth, warm like hot chocolate" Julian said, knowing his voice sounded rich, smooth and warm, like hot chocolate.
This is so funny
thanks bro haha
Yah that "see what i did there?" 🤣
That whole section is him proving it. He is literally implying he trained for that voice.
Exception : Severus Snape
Four things I learned from watching this talk

2) A: authenticity (be myself)
3) I: integrity (be my word)
4) L: love (wish them well)
3. how I need to say: tools to play with to increase power of my speech
1) register: e.g. if wanting weight, lower pitch of voice
2) timbre: the way voice feels e.g. breathing, posture
3) prosody: rhythm (e.g. not monotone)

Gil Su Kim You made a summary and shared it with everyone. You must have been the nicest kid in class when you were in school. (Or, now that I think of it, maybe you still are. I don´t know your age.) Thank you, I appreciate it.
:( _when I speak by action, then people only able to listen by perception_
+Gil Su Kim
Do all of that Gil and you will have become a robot!
+Gil Su Kim
I reckon he missed one: Defensiveness
(and I did wonder if the list should include fake humility/the apology reflex, but I suppose that comes under Lying, with a hint of Excuses)
Thank you angel of God. Note taker
He such a good speaker. I like the way he spoke and his confidence. I love his speech
Did he just influence such a large group of people within 10mins to make them stand and do some warmups like that?
He proved his technique to be true. Amazing!
Wow it's so amazing. People from all around want to hear and interact, they come and sit in silence with others to hear someone elevated on a stage with an electrically-amplified voice. Lo and Behold, they are listening to the person on an elevated stage with an amplified voice! IT MUST BE A MIRACLE!
Its easy to do that actually
@@TheFogLakeshore Always good to listen to these speeches to improve your own emotional intelligence, even if it's only a little bit of improvement.

Thanks a lot!!!
Thank you! Imma write this in my notebook
thank you so much
Now this gentleman here cuts right through the chase, I usually dislike long introductions to the real subject. A lovely lecture indeed.
Iky Scars cuts right TO the chase
Iky Scars here cut??
Iky Scars exactly my thought in the first 10 seconds
SP95 ntR Intended ! Hahaha
Iky Scars hence his ted talk topic
I assumed this would be your basic talk on vocal coaching, how to carry and conduct oneself in public speaking. But he went to a deeper level and emphasized how we should speak about goodness, light, and positivity ❤ A concise message that hit the mark precisely ❤
He absolutely demonstrated all of his techniques. Amazing.
Not one time did my mind wander or drift away. This was pure excellence.
Same here hope you're ok
mine did on the NEGAtivity
@@nanab3959 😢
🙈 Me reading this comment in the middle of watching the video
Yes...what you say is true
The trick is, whenever you're talking to people have confidence in yourself don't look shy, look into people's eye, don't bow your head down a minute unless you checking the shoes or down-wear.
But first hit your throat, Mnmn Mnmm...
•••Men speak with a little base in it, avoid speaking to fast.
•••Ladies speak calmly men automatically like that.
Avoid, Eh, ehm, etc in the middle of your speech.
Just pause and continue with the next word,then everyone in the audience will automatically see you as an intelligent person subconsciously.
It's a human trick.
True. Also, How about just saying the TRUTH? Which DOES include Gossiping, Judging etc. How abt emphasizing that ppl who ONLY tak positive are Pretentious Liars and are NOT Truthful. Like this man- Julian Treasure could be one of them. I am sick of those "Wanna be a Good Human Hypocrites" !! Just be Truthful
@@euphoria156 You're right, it's in the confidence bracket...Who ever speak the truth is confident and does not care about what anyone thinks.
As long as it's the truth, it's done.
*Some people also lie boldly tho
'Men automatically like that'🤣🤣🤣 i don't really care🤣🤣🤣
@@anuoluwapoobipehin4894 Same with some men being attracted to other men.

So Elon Musk is not intelligent because he stutters while talking?
4:01 "Tempered with love, honesty is a great thing." What a powerful statement; so, so true.
This video was posted 9 years ago but today (05-01-2024) I have been able to get a lot of value from it
Absolutely amazing 💯
Thank you.
You watched it on 5-1 - my birthday 😍
"If you wish people with love its really hard to judge them" , its absolutely true . I try to do this everyday . No matter what wish people well and you will find yourself free of all the negativity. And a smile from that stranger will make your day
Very true! Heroic opportunities don't cross our path very often.
A blatantly spurious assertion.
Just like ur comment made me smile😊
he sound so professional. i did the warm up a minute in lobby before job interview. i passed but requiring psychological test.

Vocal Exercises begin at 7:50 :
1. Raise arms above head, take a deep breath, sigh loudly. "AAaaaaaaahhhh."
2. Warm up lips."Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop. Bop."
3. Blow Raspberries. "Bbbbbrrlllthhhhh."
4. Exaggerate LA's. "LA. LA. LA. LA. LA."
5. Roll an R. Like champagne for the tongue. "RrrRrRrrRrRrrRrR."
6. The Siren. The WE's are always high and the oo's are always low. "WWWEEEEEeeeeeeeeeooooooowwWWWEEEEEeeeeooooooooowwwwwwwwwww."
I enjoyed writing this.

Glad you did it!!! 😂👌🎊🎊
Conversation and speaking is truly an intricate art. The mastery of it takes discipline composure and consistency, among many other things. I now take every single interaction I have, whether it be a physical interaction or via any digital format text messaging, etc. I take it as a test for myself every time. I then rate my conversion based on how well I applied this great information to work on all my weaknesses each time I strive to do better than my last interaction. How to correctly apply this information is key. Thank you for sharing this information with us all. To anyone reading this comment, I really do wish you all the best. The more we practice, the better we all become so start now and take action immediately speak light and positivity all day every day. Children of the light stay close to all those who speak and live life positively.
AWESOME 👌
If these types of interpersonal skills along with mindfulness meditation were taught in schools, we would live in a much more sane world. Intelligence isn't just about memorizing facts.
That's true man
+Micah Buzan Yup :) Therapists would be out of a job.. and the world would be so different. I wonder at the possibilities
+MatthieuAmherst That would be a real problem for status quo...
+MatthieuAmherst Actually mindfulness meditation seems to be what is being called the third wave of therapy and is becoming more popular every year among therapists. Some are even saying it could overtake CBT. I've found both CBT and mindfulness to be very useful. It's a great tool for therapists, so I don't think it will put them out of a job. Remember that they work to help people, so many of them would do well to spread the word.
+Micah Buzan Couldn't agree more
I like his head it is shining
Shining so bright i couldnt focus on the talk
lubed fucking head
His head is brighter than my future
" Head Polish " - They sell " Bee Bald! 😂❤️😂❤️😂❤️😂❤️😂❤️😂❤️😂❤️😂❤️
Cut it off and take it home- it's what I do

Suggest u watch more useful vids like this then! there certainly are plenty of them

I just wanna share something that happened to my voice, to see if others experienced this too. I used to have a higher pitched voice. But through the years where I have done a lot of self education, I saw that my voice was changing. It was going deeper. The more I found myself and felt better in this world, the lower my voice got. I literally have found my own voice now haha. Now when I speak I feel more calm, and people listen to me way more! 😊
Good for you.
You're either hitting puberty, or your inauthentic way of forced speaking is starting to damage your vocal cords.
omg same!!! i notice it most when i laugh, it comes from my chest like he mentions in the video.
This is a really good demonstration on how you can be more impactful when talking to people. I sincerely feel like I just learned a whole lot
It's useless when you are surrounded by people for a lack of a better word "idiots"
"Understanding would be the norm" I love this and I live for this! It's so important to be present and always go into a conversation with the goal to understand as much as you can and if you can't -> accept.

Despite prevailing market uncertainty, those who navigate adeptly and identify favorable opportunities can still capitalize on potential wealth accumulation.
If you're not well-versed in market intricacies, seeking advice from a consultant or investment coach is the optimal route. Personally, consulting a professional has enabled me to navigate the market successfully, resulting in a portfolio growth of approximately 65% since January. While it might seem straightforward, I truly believe this remains the most potent strategy to enter the field effectively.
I have been thinking about how to grow my reserve by at least 40% or more within months. I will be grateful if you can give tips or anything on how to make good market picks and how I can get my portfolio diversified and balanced in order to meet up my target.

@@andrew.alonzo I appreciate this advice, and I'd like to mention that "Camille Alicia Garcia" comes across as exceptionally well-informed. Upon discovering her online profile, I carefully reviewed her resume, educational history, and credentials, and I must admit, they left a strong impression.

I was a professional pilot back in the days when carbon mikes were the only choice. As a female, I learned to lower my voice’s pitch in order to activate the carbon crystals. Discovered that I also got a lot more respect and was heard better when I used the deeper richer timbre. Also stopped ending all sentences like a question. That really eliminated a lot of confusion with air traffic control.
I know nothing of “carbon mikes”. Or activating carbon crystals. Do tell!
Thank you for sharing your experience. I worked with school age children, and was led by The All Knowing one to learn about these styles and forms of communicating. Really does make a difference!! Especially when shaping and cultivating a young humans learning experience. SHALOM
The technical term for ending sentences like a question is "upspeak".
When I was learning to fly (PPL) was told that I sounded like a mouse by my second instructor. I'd already done 13 hours with my first instructor. Lost my confidence to fly as easily as that. (1st instructor left as got a job with an airline). He was all the qualities needed to be an top class instructor because I flew my first solo under his guidance. My 2nd instructor wasn't and I gave up flying sadly. How to speak made all the difference to me. Will always appreciate the first instructor for an amazing life experience. Second instructor can't take that away.
@@channel-so2st You mean "Upspeak?"?
Coming from a family who is high strung, intelligent, passionate and constantly talking over each other (remarkably well, I might add) this calm, deep voiced way of conversation not only seems hard, but would make me virtually invisible if I tried it with them. This might work on strangers, but still seems like a difficult adjustment to make into a habit..
I can just imagine a bunch of people applying for a job position, all gathered outside the boss' office going:

Treasure identifies several common issues that prevent people from feeling listened to when they speak, including:
1. Gossip: Speaking negatively about those who are not present.
2. Judgment: Forming judgments about others while they are speaking, which hinders true listening.
3. Negativity: A pessimistic attitude that obstructs constructive communication.
4. Complaining: Habitually complaining without offering solutions.
5. Blame: Failing to take responsibility for one’s actions.
6. Exaggeration: Using overly dramatic or inaccurate language.
7. Dogmatism: Mixing facts with opinions irresponsibly.
Solutions Offered
Treasure presents four pillars for effective speaking:
1. Honesty: Speaking truthfully and clearly.
2. Authenticity: Being oneself and speaking with integrity.
3. Integrity: Saying what you mean and meaning what you say.
4. Love: Wishing the best for others, which creates a positive atmosphere in communication.
Vocal Techniques
Treasure also shares several vocal techniques to enhance speaking ability, including:
- Adjusting pitch from high to low to add strength to the voice.
- Using intonation and rhythm to capture the audience's attention.
- Employing silence strategically for greater impact.
Conclusion
Treasure emphasizes that if we want our voices to be heard, we must pay attention to how we speak and the environment around us. By applying these principles, we can create a world where effective communication and mutual understanding are commonplace.

I’m very pleased to see almost 30 million views for this video. I feel like healthy communication is a dying art form.
boy have I learned that public speaking is not just to simply speak in front of an audience, there are broader and deeper aspects that make one’s speech interesting; where you would actually listen to what they are saying. It is compelling to learn the many ways you could competently speak in front of an audience, more than just articulating words and thoughts but rather, the way you speak those words and thoughts. Great video! great speech!

For your first acclaim, I accord too.
I really loved the way, the idea for this talk, begin with a problem, suggest a solution, offer Hands-on experience for the audience. Beautiful sir, thoroughly enjoyed every frame of this video. The activity towards the end, I believe many of us will be a different speaker after that. Thank you for this.
This is an awesome talk...direct to the point, of being a conscious speaker. So love the tips and techniques. He's a great communicator, he got me glued.
Brilliant talk. Human intelligence combined with higher levels of awareness will save the world!
It is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. For there is no other name under heaven given to man by which we must be saved.

17M and counting, only another 16.83 billion people in the world to watch this video :D
Julian explains how our words, tone, and delivery shape whether people truly listen to us, emphasizing honesty and vocal variety. It made me realize how often I speak without much thought, and I’m excited to start applying her tips to see how they change the way people respond to me.
I was a speech & debate champion in HS & college (Harvard) and then a debate and speech coach at the HS and college levels for more than 30 years, as well as a founder of urban speech and debate. Everything Julian Treasure says here is exactly what high school speech teachers try to convey to their students each and every day; policy debaters try to persuade by facts and logic, whereas events like oratory involve rhetorical methods (some of which are mentioned in the talk) for persuasion. These essentially are known to us as LOGOS and ETHOS; the best speakers can not only control register, timbre, prosody, pace, silence, pitch and volume, but also can start a speech with a hook, an introduction, a topic sentence, 2-3 arguments, surrounded by rhetorical flourishes (three words starting with the same consonant is a famous one) a conclusion and a closing hook.
I'm lucky enough to have been teaching the last few years standardized tests, and getting across how to write, or how to speak, is a delight with young kids. They should all watch this You Tube!
My daughter is a freshman in HS and is taking honors classes. We just watched this today for her homework project to study Pathos, Ethos and Logos. It was a pleasure working side by side with her. I am a little concerned because she is so focused on performance and the end goal of attending Brown University that I sometimes feel she is missing the value of effective communication and how empowering that can be in infinite circumstances. Do you have any words of wisdom that will honor her enthusiasm and allow for her to get her hand on the heart beat of the moment. I am only now going to college at age 54, so I'm a bit of a late bloomer and she is sure to pass me up academically.
@@kimilivingston2521I'm just 29 and not a communication coach. But I do agree with your view on how a good communication is more powerful and important than a single instance of getting into a good university. Great speakers may or may not have finished their college but they can get many great things done by simply communicating. Wars can be stopped, business deals can be brokered, true friends can be gained, experiences can be learned. To have such skills under your belt means you can walk through the world without the riches or the certificates but do not suffer a single day. I'm sure you're an amazing parent for seeing this point for your daughter. You don't need other people, just use your own words to teach her.

This was truly a great speech, clearly the speaker knows and uses his theory very well. Everyone in the aucience was interested, everyone watching the video probably as well. I really wonder what would happen if more people learned and used this theory, not only for big speeches but also for normal conversations. As the speaker said, the human voice is very powerful, and I think the world would be a better place if more people knew how to use it correctly.
You don’t know how much I love and appreciate this video because I definitely wish the world was more lively so that way depression will decrease
Communication is about human connection. Being able to communicate effectively is one of the best life habits. Good listening is among the most important principles of great communication. It is common for most people to listen not with the intent of understanding, but with the intent of replying. Listening with the intent to understand is to fully understand that person intellectually and emotionally. You ensure that you understand by repeating back to them what they said and mirroring their emotions. By doing so, you help them structure their own thoughts and feelings. This type of listening can lead to truly open and trusting communication.
He is such a good speaker that I want to listen to him for days and days. I feel energized whenever I listening to him.

Nice definition of Love....wishing someone well. I like that.
Yeah; that's what love is. I can't believe you millenials; what with sleeping couples in bed that are weirded out with saying "I love you" like it's perverted; damn kids need to get off the lawn that is the English language and metaphysical concepts of altruism.
Out of all the suggestions listed, I think "Pace" is perhaps the most difficult to implement. We live in a world where people don't have the patience to listen to someone who speaks slowly. You'll get interrupted constantly, or people will simply stop listening because you're taking up too much of their time. Too frequently you'll have to say what's on your mind really quickly, or not at all. Really, everything mentioned is an excellent practice, but it's only useful when speaking with someone who practices the same principles.
This is what makes arguments harder to because if you take too much time to think your response they lose interest but to quickly and you say something incorrectly to what you actually want to say
Technology is litteraly changing our brain function. Keeping the brain constantly wired with cell phones, text facebook, email, TH-cam and other social media is giving us short attention spams. Customer service, sales person even owners of businesses who sell for a living don't take the time to charm a customer anymore. Worst thing is that it's even changing the women's brain who are known to be more expresive and detailed. Even they don't like repeating things more than once. LOL!
+shintaro shy Ever talked to someone who talks with the pace of a snail? It's insanely difficult, not to interrupt.
+Charity Diary I totally agree - in my university, people think that those who speak faster are actually more intelligent because they can squeeze more content/ having much more things to say about something than someone who speaks slower (because that person is just trying to drag out the presentation and doesn't actually have much to say)
+Charity Diary look at that guy. You listened for him very carefully although he told not very fast.
This was truly a great video to improve our skill in speaking especially giving a speech. The speaker giving us some tips how to deliver a powerful speech. He makes contact with the audience by giving a little joke while talking so that the audience isn’t bored and interested in the material. Such a confident and clear speaker because every words he says can be understood. In the last video he invites the audience to put into practice the tips that he has already given. Amazing!!!!️ thank you for the new knowledge
I love this speech so much that I’m using it for an out of state declamation tournament

This is great insights especially the seven deadly sina of communications.
The society, our parents ... we heard them gossiping so our brain functions in a way that this is normal but it is not. It is an illusion that fog up with negativity. People even gossips just to feel close to one another.
It is okay to vent your problems but never gossips in day to day basis. It is very unhealthy.
Awesome

I love Julian's point about how when we're speaking, we can really use our voice to create an environment of warmth and connection - by changing our delivery and tone. I love how that is able to help people feel so much more understood ❤😊❤

Hấp dẫn! 💪📢
Clear , Crisp and Concise ..... Kudos Julian
This is really helpful. I have once used some of the tactics but without knowing the full set. I think that I must repeat this video before each speech I need to deliver. May God bless you!
The human voice: It's the instrument we all play. It's the most powerful sound in the world, probably. It's the only one that can start a war or say "I love you." And yet many people have the experience that when they speak, people don't listen to them. And why is that? How can we speak powerfully to make change in the world? What I'd like to suggest, there are a number of habits that we need to move away from. I've assembled for your pleasure here seven deadly sins of speaking. I'm not pretending this is an exhaustive list, but these seven, I think, are pretty large habits that we can all fall into. First, gossip. Speaking ill of somebody who's not present. Not a nice habit, and we know perfectly well the person gossiping, five minutes later, will be gossiping about us. Second, judging. We know people who are like this in conversation, and it's very hard to listen to somebody if you know that you're being judged and found wanting at the same time. Third, negativity. You can fall into this. My mother, in the last years of her life, became very negative, and it's hard to listen. I remember one day, I said to her, "It's October 1 today," and she said, "I know, isn't it dreadful?" (Laughter) It's hard to listen when somebody's that negative. (Laughter) And another form of negativity, complaining. Well, this is the national art of the U.K. It's our national sport. We complain about the weather, sport, about politics, about everything, but actually, complaining is viral misery. It's not spreading sunshine and lightness in the world. Excuses. We've all met this guy. Maybe we've all been this guy. Some people have a blamethrower. They just pass it on to everybody else and don't take responsibility for their actions, and again, hard to listen to somebody who is being like that. Penultimate, the sixth of the seven, embroidery, exaggeration. It demeans our language, actually, sometimes. For example, if I see something that really is awesome, what do I call it? (Laughter) And then, of course, this exaggeration becomes lying, and we don't want to listen to people we know are lying to us. And finally, dogmatism. The confusion of facts with opinions. When those two things get conflated, you're listening into the wind. You know, somebody is bombarding you with their opinions as if they were true. It's difficult to listen to that. So here they are, seven deadly sins of speaking. These are things I think we need to avoid. But is there a positive way to think about this? Yes, there is. I'd like to suggest that there are four really powerful cornerstones, foundations, that we can stand on if we want our speech to be powerful and to make change in the world. Fortunately, these things spell a word. The word is "hail," and it has a great definition as well. I'm not talking about the stuff that falls from the sky and hits you on the head. I'm talking about this definition, to greet or acclaim enthusiastically, which is how I think our words will be received if we stand on these four things. So what do they stand for? See if you can guess. The H, honesty, of course, being true in what you say, being straight and clear. The A is authenticity, just being yourself. A friend of mine described it as standing in your own truth, which I think is a lovely way to put it. The I is integrity, being your word, actually doing what you say, and being somebody people can trust. And the L is love. I don't mean romantic love, but I do mean wishing people well, for two reasons. First of all, I think absolute honesty may not be what we want. I mean, my goodness, you look ugly this morning. Perhaps that's not necessary. Tempered with love, of course, honesty is a great thing. But also, if you're really wishing somebody well, it's very hard to judge them at the same time. I'm not even sure you can do those two things simultaneously. So hail. Also, now that's what you say, and it's like the old song, it is what you say, it's also the way that you say it. You have an amazing toolbox. This instrument is incredible, and yet this is a toolbox that very few people have ever opened. I'd like to have a little rummage in there with you now and just pull a few tools out that you might like to take away and play with, which will increase the power of your speaking. Register, for example. Now, falsetto register may not be very useful most of the time, but there's a register in between. I'm not going to get very technical about this for any of you who are voice coaches. You can locate your voice, however. So if I talk up here in my nose, you can hear the difference. If I go down here in my throat, which is where most of us speak from most of the time. But if you want weight, you need to go down here to the chest. You hear the difference? We vote for politicians with lower voices, it's true, because we associate depth with power and with authority. That's register. Then we have timbre. It's the way your voice feels. Again, the research shows that we prefer voices which are rich, smooth, warm, like hot chocolate. Well if that's not you, that's not the end of the world, because you can train. Go and get a voice coach. And there are amazing things you can do with breathing, with posture, and with exercises to improve the timbre of your voice. Then prosody. I love prosody. This is the sing-song, the meta-language that we use in order to impart meaning. It's root one for meaning in conversation. People who speak all on one note are really quite hard to listen to if they don't have any prosody at all. That's where the word "monotonic" comes from, or monotonous, monotone. Also, we have repetitive prosody now coming in, where every sentence ends as if it were a question when it's actually not a question, it's a statement? (Laughter) And if you repeat that one, it's actually restricting your ability to communicate through prosody, which I think is a shame, so let's try and break that habit. Pace. I can get very excited by saying something really quickly, or I can slow right down to emphasize, and at the end of that, of course, is our old friend silence. There's nothing wrong with a bit of silence in a talk, is there? We don't have to fill it with ums and ahs. It can be very powerful. Of course, pitch often goes along with pace to indicate arousal, but you can do it just with pitch. Where did you leave my keys? (Higher pitch) Where did you leave my keys? So, slightly different meaning in those two deliveries. And finally, volume. (Loud) I can get really excited by using volume. Sorry about that, if I startled anybody. Or, I can have you really pay attention by getting very quiet. Some people broadcast the whole time. Try not to do that. That's called sodcasting, (Laughter) Imposing your sound on people around you carelessly and inconsiderately. Not nice. Of course, where this all comes into play most of all is when you've got something really important to do. It might be standing on a stage like this and giving a talk to people. It might be proposing marriage, asking for a raise, a wedding speech. Whatever it is, if it's really important, you owe it to yourself to look at this toolbox and the engine that it's going to work on, and no engine works well without being warmed up. Warm up your voice. Actually, let me show you how to do that. Would you all like to stand up for a moment? I'm going to show you the six vocal warm-up exercises that I do before every talk I ever do. Any time you're going to talk to anybody important, do these. First, arms up, deep breath in, and sigh out, ahhhhh, like that. One more time. Ahhhh, very good. Now we're going to warm up our lips, and we're going to go Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba. Very good. And now, brrrrrrrrrr, just like when you were a kid. Brrrr. Now your lips should be coming alive. We're going to do the tongue next with exaggerated la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Beautiful. You're getting really good at this. And then, roll an R. Rrrrrrr. That's like champagne for the tongue. Finally, and if I can only do one, the pros call this the siren. It's really good. It starts with "we" and goes to "aw." The "we" is high, the "aw" is low. So you go, weeeaawww, weeeaawww. Fantastic. Give yourselves a round of applause. Take a seat, thank you. (Applause) Next time you speak, do those in advance. Now let me just put this in context to close. This is a serious point here. This is where we are now, right? We speak not very well to people who simply aren't listening in an environment that's all about noise and bad acoustics. I have talked about that on this stage in different phases. What would the world be like if we were speaking powerfully to people who were listening consciously in environments which were actually fit for purpose? Or to make that a bit larger, what would the world be like if we were creating sound consciously and consuming sound consciously and designing all our environments consciously for sound? That would be a world that does sound beautiful, and one where understanding would be the norm, and that is an idea worth spreading. Thank you. (Applause)

I learned a while ago that most people don't really listen to what a person has to say. Speakers with either natural or trained voice dynamics can say complete bullcrap and people will swallow it. How things are said change the way the content is understood. Even if somebody says the most fascinating things in the world, but with a dull voice, he won't be listened by most. People assume that dull voice comes from a person who doesn't believe what he's saying, so any message is lost.
Rafał Dydkiem Machał nobody listens to words, only tone. Like dumb dogs.
GG T87 there are also people with traumatic experience, which freezes their energy and makes their voice monotonous. Almost nobody listens to these people, even though they have a lot to say. It’s pretty sad that we idolize mediocre TH-camrs, who have only one talent - talking dynamically. Their content is often very shallow.
Rafał Dydkiem Machał, agree especially about shallow TH-camrs (who seemed to have learned it from this guy, or guys like him) and as was the content of this guy’s TED talk, too much emphasis on cliches and techniques rather than harmonizing with the soul of what you want to share and then bringing that out. I could have done a better job than this guy and I don’t fancy myself some great expert on public speaking.
If this TED talk was to give the speech of his life in 18 minutes, as it says about TED talks in the description, i.e. the best short speech of his life about something his life is centered on or is emblematic of him, he must have a very dull and stupid life. It’s more emblematic of some stuffy Brit deigning to patronize us, even to gaslighting people, with his precious cliches while telling us something that actually adds nothing.
Copy that
Rafal machal: you're right, these trained speakers are taught the art of speech, not speaking, anyone can speak. Only those who are intelligent and naturally energetic with somewhat a deep voice and tone are listened to naturally, I was once trained in speeches, and how they discovered this technique, I know there has been hundreds of millions of dollars spent trying to formulate what makes one person great at speeches while others are smarter with a more important message that are never heard. We used to say quote "It isn't what you say that matters it's how you say it." These words are true today just as they were then.
Here's a detailed scenario incorporating the points you provided, focusing on a workshop setting:
**Scenario: The Power of Voice Workshop**
**Setting:** A bright, airy community center room. Chairs are arranged in a semi-circle facing a central space where the workshop leader, Anya, stands. A whiteboard displays the words "HAIL" and "Seven Deadly Sins of Speaking." A small table holds a pitcher of water and glasses.
**Participants:** A diverse group of 10-12 adults, ranging in age and background. They represent various professions and levels of public speaking experience - some are confident, others visibly nervous.
**Workshop Leader:** Anya, a charismatic and experienced communication coach, exudes warmth and authority.
**Workshop Flow:**
**(1) Introduction (15 minutes):** Anya begins by engaging the participants with a thought-provoking question: "Have you ever felt unheard or dismissed? How did that make you feel?" She facilitates a brief, respectful sharing of experiences, highlighting the universal desire to be heard and understood. She then introduces the concept of the human voice as a powerful tool for change, giving examples of both positive and negative uses of voice (inspiring speeches vs. hateful rhetoric).
**(2) The Seven Deadly Sins (10 minutes):** Anya presents the "Seven Deadly Sins of Speaking" (gossip, judging, negativity, complaining, excuses, exaggeration, dogmatism), explaining each sin with relatable examples and encouraging participants to identify their own weaknesses. She emphasizes the importance of mindful communication and the impact of these sins on relationships and personal effectiveness.
**(3) The Four Cornerstones of Powerful Speaking (15 minutes):** Anya introduces the "HAIL" framework (Honesty, Authenticity, Integrity, Love). She elaborates on each cornerstone with practical examples, emphasizing the importance of balancing honesty with kindness and empathy. Participants are encouraged to reflect on how they can integrate these principles into their daily communication.
**(4) The Vocal Toolbox (20 minutes):** Anya introduces the vocal techniques (register, timbre, prosody, pace, pitch, volume), explaining each concept clearly and demonstrating how they can be used to enhance the impact of speech. She incorporates interactive exercises:
* **Register:** Participants experiment with speaking in different registers (high, low, mid-range), noting the different effects.
* **Timbre:** Anya guides participants through simple vocal exercises to improve their timbre, focusing on breath control and resonance.
* **Prosody:** Participants practice reading a short passage with different prosodic variations, emphasizing the impact of rhythm and intonation.
* **Pace & Silence:** Anya demonstrates the power of pauses and varying pace to create emphasis and build suspense.
* **Pitch & Volume:** Participants practice modulating their pitch and volume to express different emotions (joy, sadness, anger).
**(5) Vocal Warm-ups (10 minutes):** Anya leads the group through a series of gentle vocal warm-up exercises (humming, lip trills, tongue rolls), emphasizing the importance of preparing the voice before speaking.
**(6) Q&A and Conclusion (10 minutes):** Anya opens the floor for questions and provides personalized feedback to participants. She concludes by reiterating the importance of mindful and powerful communication, emphasizing the potential for positive change when people speak consciously and listen attentively. She leaves participants with a handout summarizing the key concepts and exercises covered in the workshop.
This scenario provides a structured and engaging learning experience, incorporating both theoretical knowledge and practical application of the concepts. The interactive elements ensure active participation and promote a deeper understanding of the material.
I wish I could like this 1000 times.. I have fallen from grace in the absents of these practices... I certainly will be playing this every morning til these habits 'download" back into my daily interactions... I really needed the reminding of my 'tool box' ... Thank you Sir.
LOVE this. 10 minutes of my life well spent.
*Walks into the boss's office to ask for a raise*
Boss: "Yes, How can I help you?"
Me: "PRRRRRRRRRRRR WEEEEEEYOOOOOOOO WEEEE"
😂
😂😂😂
*boss impressed* *gives promotion too*
He said *”before”*
😂😂😂😂
Now this is some powerful lesson and 41 million viewers made a choice to listen wow even most of us did what he asked even behind the screen this is power of word 👏👏
I believe that if there was a top of the most exciting TED videos, this one would probably be the first.
Sometimes I catch myself thinking that I'm not being listened to. Wondering why it happens I was getting doubt about my own ideas and their use. But this man made things clear. He helped me realize that the voice, our powerful instrument, is likely not being used as it should be. Following his simple advices in my daily life made me speak my mind distinctly. This feeling is amazing.
Thank you so much.
Such an Underrated comment!
wrong
your name is cool bc it’s without a ph
My top guess would be misogyny.
Our public speaking teacher taught us that to be able to conquer your fear of public speaking is to be (obviously) be confident, BUT for you to be confident you also have to totally KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. Tried that, and personally that is sooo effective. 😉
It's also fun to have no clue what you're talking about and having to make up everything on the fly but still sound super smart
Any one from 2024 ❤😂

Maybe he's the kind who internalises his listening?
Die Gewohnheiten, die wir ablegen können, wenn wir wollen, dass uns zugehört wird (0:50):
1. Klatsch und Tratsch
2. Urteilen
3. Negativität
4. Beschwerden
5. Entschuldigungen/Ausflüchte
6. Übertreibungen/Lügen
7. Dogmatismen, Verwechseln von Tatsachen und Meinungen
Wie statt dessen (HAIL)(3:20):
- Ehrlichkeit (sei korrekt, klar und deutlich - verbunden mit Liebe)
- Authentizität (sei du selbst)
- Integrität (handle wie du sprichst, sei vertrauenswürdig)
- Liebe (wünsche den Anderen Gutes)
Werkzeuge (4:38):
Stimmlage - Sprich mit der Brust - Stimme, um dem Gesagten mehr Gewicht zu verleihen
Klangfarbe - reich, sanft, warm (kann man trainieren)
Satzrhythmus/Klangfülle - melodischer Singsang versus Monotonie/Eintönigkeit
Tempo - Unterstreichen des Gesagten durch Schnelligkeit oder Verlangsamung oder Schweigen/Stille
Tonhöhe - je nach Tonhöhe werden andere Emotionen transportiert
Lautstärke - begeistert oder aufgeregt: hohes Volume, Aufmerksamkeit steigernd: leises Volume
Ab 7:45 Aufwärm - Übungen für die Stimme
Bin sehr begeistert von dieser kurzen und würzigen Anleitung! Vielen Dank, Julian Treasure (was für ein Schatz!) und TED !
Allen Vorbeikommenden einen schönen Tag!
Vielen dank, gute zusammenfassung!

Damn you're attentive af
😂
Strange)
I don't wanna listen to him too)
j j noticed that too🤣🤣
I’m fuckin crying my guy was slump
Thank you for sharing. I got some important information.
1. 7 deadly sins of speaking : Gossip, Judging, Negativity, Complaining, Excuses, Lying, Dogmatism.
2. " If you are wishing somebody's well, it is very hard to judge them at the same time. "
3. "Tempered with love, honesty is a great thing."
My experience is that most say they want honesty, but you then realize that it's only true if it aligns with their opinions.
People want honesty, but they don't wanna have to respond to that honesty if it doesn't fit their interests.
Yup.. so true
@@Real_MisterSir people don't want anything if it doesn't fit their interests by definition of sanity
Watching this video is one of the main reasons I nailed my dream job interview, thank you Julian!
