Welcome to think fast, Talk Smart, a podcast designed to hone your communication skills.
My name is Matt Abrahams.
I'm a lecturer here at Stanford's Graduate School of Business where I teach strategic communication, and I'll be inviting my colleagues and experts in to talk about best practices you can use to become a more confident, authentic, and compelling communicator.
When we think about our communication at work, we tend to focus on our presentations and meeting contributions that we know we should spend time preparing and practicing for.
But if you think about it, most of our professional communication is spontaneous in nature.
It's providing feedback in the moment, answering questions, introducing people.
These spur of the moment communication events can be as important, if not even more important, than our planned high stakes communications.
For most people, these impromptu situations are quite challenging.
I am thrilled to invite two experts and good friends here today to talk about how we can become more comfortable and confident in these spur of the moment situations.
Let me start by introducing Adam Tobin.
Adam's a senior lecturer in film and media studies here at Stanford University, and he's a teacher in continuing studies.
Dan Klein is also a lecturer at Stanford, both at the graduate School of Business as well as theater and performance studies.
And Dan also is an instructor at the Adam and Dan, thanks for being here.
Thank you.
Thank you.
