Cheapest place you can buy this book (at time of writing) AND quick to deliver, both of which agree with my ethos, a 'Humming' productive life should be accessible to everyone. As an Amazon Associate, I also get something little from Amazon when you purchase from this special link. It's not much (4%, which is like 40c on a $10 book) and costs my listeners nothing, but powers me enough to continue to deliver the best possible content. Deepest thanks... if only you can just see how grateful I am right now :) I feel financially silly for saying this, but you can, of course, even borrow from your local library! Or just buy a cheap copy for yourself for now and maybe pay it forward to someone else whom you think might benefit. Good things become better when shared, right?

Which voice do you trust more?
For today's episode, we will talk about trust. Or
I'm going to put my money that you said the 2nd one Why? Because it's real. it didn't sound scripted. It's authentic.
Nowadays of speaking to someone behind the camera, authenticity is more important than ever to do to get someone's trust as we work towards win-wins. Inspired from my read of 7 habits of highly effective people and my recent experience at a web conference.
I recently spectated a product launch at a web conference. It was in the form of an interview between the host and the product owner. There was nothing wrong with the product, it was a great product but what stopped me at the door was it was pre-recorded... scripted... do they really mean what they say? I actually wanted to hear the product in their own authentic true own voice.
So, when you go into your next zoom meeting or web conference today, remember authenticity matters. Trust in your voice.
