We Need More Formality On Line When Selling To Japanese Buyers

Selling to a buyer in-person and selling to the same Japanese buyer online are worlds apart. Yet how many salespeople are succeeding in making the transition? Are your clients seeking virtual sales training? Not enough. COVID has revealed a lot of salespeople weaknesses. which were hidden in the face-to-face sales call world. Wishing things get better is a plan, but not a very good plan because things don't appear like they are going to get better for quite some time. There is also the fact that a lot of companies are not going to have staff in the office every day anymore. So selling online, isn't going to disappear as a part of our reality. Our skills have to include this piece of the puzzle, whether we like it or not. What do we need to do? Here are some ideas to apply with your sales team and get them better able to get the deals COVID or otherwise. First impressions whether at the office venue or online are critical. Posture sounds like an unlikely choice for something to focus on, but think about the body language clues we pick up from people according to the way they hold themselves. Online, we need to be quite formal sitting up ram rod straight, or if we are standing, than standing tall. Our posture needs to convey confidence, competence, trust, and reliability. Sit forward, Roman style toward the edge of the seat online just as you would do in a face-to-face meeting. Get the camera lens up to eye height and frame yourself on screen so that your upper half of your body is visible. This becomes important when we want to use our gestures. Many people I see in online meetings never use their gestures when explaining things. Gestures work online too, but you have to make some adjustment. The corridor between your chest and your ear height is where to use gestures, because that way they will be easily seen. Also don't wave your hands around. These fake backgrounds can't take that type of movement. So it means we need to maintain our gestures longer than usual and move our hands very slowly. You wouldn't slouch in the chair in front of a buyer. And you would look them in the eye when you talk to them. Looking at their faces on screen looks like you are looking down on them when you're talking and that cannot help build a good relationship. Instead, look straight at the lens and try to engage the buyer. We need to make greater use of our voice and lift the energy up at least 20% louder and stronger than usual to compensate for the power loss, which the camera extracts. We need to hit key words and phrases much stronger in order to give them emphasis. We also need to slow our speaking speed down because the audio on these video platforms is universally poor. Pauses become more important to allow what we have said be captured, processed, and understood. We should eliminate ums and ahs because we've rehearsed our sales call online before we make it. We want to sound assured, confident and convinced about what we are saying. Any vocal hesitations defeat that effect so we have to get rid of these verbal ticks. We need to lead off with our credibility statement. This is a brief highlight of our USP or unique selling proposition. We should be using the screen share function to show any visuals supporting what we are saying. For example, one of our USP is longevity, having stood the test of time. For that purpose, we show the New York skyline as it looked in 1912, when the company was founded and the Tokyo skyline in 1963, when we opened in Japan. This visually is much more powerful than just saying we started in 1912 and 1963. Next, we should put up a draft agenda for the call using the screen share function. In this agenda we specify why speaking with us is a good idea. We nominate that we are going to discuss their current situation and their desired future situation, as well as barriers, challenging them from reaching their targets. We ask them if they would like to add any points to the agenda so that they feel ownership of the plan for the call. If they have any additions, then we just type them straight into the document and put it all back up on screen. As we work our way through the detail, it is important to check for understanding. One of the bad elements of online meetings is that buyers multitask while we are talking. In person, they can't do it. But online is the new wild west and there are few rules. This means we have to be insistent that they turn on their camera even though this may uncover some pushback or reluctance. We need to set this up. We both appreciate that mutual trust is very important in business. So let's both turn our cameras on today while we have this meeting. If they won't even turn their camera on, you have to ask yourself if this is really a prospect you should be spending any time. After the meeting, we need to send a lot of data they can look at on their own time. Japan is the data vortex of the universe. And the basic rule is you can never give Japanese buyers too much information. If I asked for a quotation or a proposal, then we should make an appointment right there and then for the next meeting for you to take them through it. Never send the document ahead of the meeting. Arrange the next meeting and then use the screen share function to take them through it. Send the actual document after the meeting. This way you can control their understanding of the content and justify that big number on the last page, because you can explain the value it represents.

Once upon a time, we taught public speaking and presentation skills in a class room, with tons of people all seated together, right next to each other.  We moved to teaching everything LIVE On Line since February 2020, so what has been the difference?  Surprisingly, not as much as we expected.  The one big difference is the lack of opportunity to employ full body emphasis when presenting, because everyone is mainly sitting in front of a screen.  You can use a standing desk, but even so, the camera will cut you off at the thigh level, so we are not getting the full body power.  There are a few tricky things about gestures when using fake backgrounds, which by the way seems to be standard now.  What are the things that stand out most in the online presenting environment? Smiling is definitely one which has disappeared, when people are on screen.  I don't know why that is the case.  Perhaps we are more self conscious in front of a camera?  Or is this now such a serious business world that smiling is out of fashion?  Think of any online meeting you have attended recently and ask yourself was anyone smiling when they made their comments or gave their reports?  I was teaching a class on presenting skills online recently and what a difference it made when people would smile during their talks.  Not every subject lends itself to smiling of course but there are bound to be good news in there somewhere and that is the time to trot out that big smile of yours.  It is congruent with the content of the talk, so it works.  It is also such a connector with the audience, it really drives up the engagement factor with an audience. We have all been doing these online meetings for 18 months now, yet most people still haven't mastered the medium.  I know it is difficult, because the camera lens is 10 centimetres above the faces on the screen.  However, take a look at the eye line of the participants in the next meeting.  How many are framed in the screen so that there is a half body showing and their head is at about two thirds height on camera?  Many will still have their heads cut off and they are arranged at the very bottom of the screen, like they have been decapitated.  Or they will have the camera lens angle shooting straight up their nostrils – not an attractive look that one. When we get the camera lens at eye line and we speak while looking at the camera, we are now using the medium as it was designed.  The camera can bring us into the world of the viewer and we can be speaking directly to them through the lens.  When we are looking down at the faces on screen we have broken off eye contact and we seem like we are looking down on everyone.  It is the equivalent of giving a face to face speech without ever looking at your audience, in fact you are speaking to the floor, the whole time.  Now I have seen speakers actually do that, but it is totally ineffective.  The same with the online world – talk to the people through the lens and you will get your message across much more impressively. We mainly use our voices when presenting online.  Yet what about gestures?  Gestures can support what we are saying by bringing more physical energy to the point.  If you have framed yourself properly then you can use your hands on screen.  There are a few best practices though.  Firstly, don't wave your hands around, because the fake backgrounds will disappear them at certain points. So, hold your hands at between shoulder and head height, so that they can be easily seen and hold the gesture rather than trying to move it too much.  Also, if you want to show some item on screen, use your own body as the shield and show it in front of you. The fake background won't be able to disappear it on you when you do it this way. Most people I see online, are using the same speaking voice range they use all the time in the in-person world.  When we are presenting we are no longer a part of the audience – we are on stage, be it in a venue or online.  That means we need to bring a lot more energy to what we are saying, in order to attract the audience to our message.  When we are online, we also need to compensate for the fact that the camera will sap 20% of our power and we will come across as having less energy that usual.  You may have noticed that most people speaking online sound like they are on “downers”.    We need to get that voice energy up and start directing at it a key words we want to emphasise in our sentences.  Not every word in a sentence has the same value, so we need to pick out key words and phrases and make them hot, by hitting them harder. Most online presenters have a long way to go with this medium. The experience gained over the last year or so, hasn't improved them, actually. They are still making fundamental mistakes.  These can be easily corrected and it just takes greater awareness and some practice to get it right.  So let's think again about what we are doing here and how we are doing it.  Apply these ideas and you will immediately be in the top 1% of online presenters, simply because everyone else is clueless, hopeless and way underpowered.      

THE Presentations Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan

Video is tricky. However, it looks so simple.  You just stand in front of the camera and give your talk.  I don't know why video saps twenty percent of our energy when it is actually broadcast, but that seems to be the accepted wisdom.  That means that just speaking normally into camera will now look a lot less energetic.  Getting the delivery to be fluent is also a challenge.  Either we do it free style or we use a teleprompter.  Both have their challenges.  What do we do with our hands?  This is an interesting one, because the camera lens seems to have some magic power to reduce our gesture self awareness to zero, until that is, when we see it played back in all its gory glory. I broadcast three TV shows on YouTube every week, so I am doing a lot of video work.  My first weekly TV show was kicked off nearly four years, so I have gained a few insights over that time.  I am not from the media world or have any background in television.  I am a typical businessman who got into this by accident and so it is all pretty much self taught through exposure, practice and repetition.  Yes, I have the advantage of being a High Impact Presentations instructor for Dale Carnegie, but presenting to a live audience and doing it on video is totally different.  Everyone has discovered this fact since we all moved home, to spend a lot of our time in Zoom meetings or their equivalent. I also teach people how to present to the camera and I have noticed a few things.  Invariably their energy is too low.  They are transferring their usual speaking volume to this medium and it doesn't work.  They appear lifeless and boring.  No problem, speak louder, right?  That is what I thought too, but I noticed a lot of people find that daunting.  For them speaking with 50% more energy feels like they are screaming.  Remember we are subtracting 20% immediately to counter the camera lens energy deficit, but on top of that they need to bring even more energy to the talk.  If I ask for 50% more energy, invariably I will get about a 10% increase.  This is why having an instructor or coach is handy, because you can't easily work this out by yourself. Gestures seem to be another area of mystery.  What do I do with my hands?  The most common choice is to do nothing with them.  This is a big missed opportunity to bring physical power to support your verbal message.  I have found there is a 15 second window to hold the same gesture.  More than that and it become weaker and weaker and more and more annoying.  The gestures need to be coordinated with what we are saying, so that they are congruent.  If what we are saying and the way we are saying it don't align properly, then our audience gets distracted.  Once upon a time, the distracted audience would be by focusing on our voice or our apparel.  Now it is on their phone.  For half body video composition, we need the gestures to be held between rib height and the head height, so that they can be easily seen.  For some curious reason, a lot of people hold their gestures at low waist level and apart from being difficult to see, this bit usually gets cut off in the editing process. What we are doing with our face also is important.  Having one facial expression may be very energy efficient, but it looks wooden on video.  Our face should be showing what we are talking about.  If results are good, then look happy.  If they are bad, then look concerned.  If you ask a rhetorical question, then look puzzled.  I think you get the idea.  One thing the camera doesn't like is when we drop our chin down, while we are talking.  It looks like we are talking down to our audience, we also look very constrained.  So we need to keep that chin up the whole time.   Try it for yourself and you will be amazed at the difference it makes, to how we come across to our audience. If we are just speaking off the top of our head, then we had better be pretty good or the video will be butchered in the editing process, as we have to stitch all those corrected mistakes together.  It becomes very jerky in the final version, which is super distracting from our message.  Zooming in and zooming out at these edits makes it appear less choppy, but you still don't want too many of these to have to contend with.  Teleprompters can fix this and a bit of adjusting for font size and speed is needed to find the right balance.  The secret here is to only look at the left side of the screen as the words roll up.  Otherwise, you will find yourself reading from left to right and on screen you will look like you are reading it.  This rather defeats the purpose doesn't it.  Have a look at my shows on YouTube and see if you can tell I am reading it off a teleprompter?  Remember, our peripheral eyesight is good enough to focus on the left side and still read the words which are on that same line off to the right. Video is a different game and we need to make this medium a winner for us.  Try these hints for yourself and your image and impact will be much improved.

When Does Speaking Between the Arm and Head Tefillin Require Repeating the Beracha?

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour

When Does Speaking Between the Arm and Head Tefillin Require Repeating the Beracha? A fundamental rule in Halacha is that one should not interrupt between related stages of a single Misva. With regard to Tefillin, once a person recites the Beracha of "Lehani'ah Tefillin" and places the Shel Yad , he must immediately proceed to place the Shel Rosh , without any interruptions in between. Any unnecessary pause—especially speech —is considered a Hefsek (interruption), and in certain cases, it invalidates the initial Beracha. This is the ruling of Maran in the Shulhan Aruch (O.H. 25:9), which states: "One should not speak between the donning of the Shel Yad and the Shel Rosh. If he did speak, he must recite another Beracha on the Shel Rosh." This ruling is rooted in the Gemara (Menahot 36a), which teaches that both Tefillin are part of one extended Misva. The Beracha on the Shel Yad is intended to cover both the arm and head Tefillin —provided no interruption occurs. Speaking, therefore, severs this connection and requires a new Beracha. What Type of Speech Counts as an Interruption? Not all speech is treated equally. Halacha distinguishes between: Speech unrelated to the Misva (e.g., "How are you today?" or "Did the Yankees win?") — This is considered a clear Hefsek. One must repeat the Beracha , saying "Al Misvat Tefillin" before placing the Shel Rosh. Speech related to the Misva (e.g., "Pass me my Tefillin Shel Rosh," or "I need to adjust the knot") — This is discouraged , but it is not considered a full interruption. A new Beracha is not required , though one should avoid such speech whenever possible. The Ben Ish Hai (Parashat Vayera, 7) writes strongly against any talking, even related to the Misva, and encourages placing both Tefillin with total focus and silence. Nonetheless, he rules that speech about the Tefillin does not invalidate the Beracha. The Mishna Berura (25:36) clarifies that even a brief word or short phrase—if not directly related to Tefillin—is sufficient to be called a Hefsek and require a new Beracha. What About Gestures, Movement, or Sounds? Actions such as gesturing, nodding, or pointing are not considered interruptions , since the mouth remains silent and the Beracha is not disconnected from the Misva. Similarly, clearing the throat or making an involuntary sound does not constitute a Hefsek. Even so, some opinions advise avoiding all forms of distraction—verbal or physical—between Shel Yad and Shel Rosh in order to maintain the full sanctity of the process. What If One Began Another Beracha by Mistake? Another case that often arises is when someone begins saying a Beracha by habit or mistake. For example, after placing the Shel Yad, he begins, "Baruch Ata…," thinking he needs to recite a Beracha before the Shel Rosh. If he says "Baruch Ata…" but stops before saying Hashem's Name , he should immediately stop and not complete the Beracha . This is not considered a Hefsek. If he says "Baruch Ata Hashem…" but realizes the mistake mid-sentence, he should conclude the phrase with "Lamdeni Hukecha" , a verse from Tehillim (119:12), which turns the phrase into a pasuk and avoids a Beracha Levatala. If he completes a full, unrelated Beracha—such as "Shehakol" or "Asher Yasar" —he has certainly interrupted and must repeat the Beracha for Tefillin . This case is discussed in the Ben Ish Hai and the Mishna Berura , and the solution of "Lamdeni Hukecha" is accepted by both Ashkenazim and Sephardim. Summary: No speech is allowed between Tefillin Shel Yad and Shel Rosh. If one speaks unrelated words , he must repeat the Beracha , saying "Al Misvat Tefillin" for the Shel Rosh. If the speech is related to the Misva , no new Beracha is needed, but it is still discouraged. Gestures or movements are not considered interruptions. If one starts a Beracha by mistake , he should either stop immediately or redirect it to a pasuk if Hashem's Name was already mentioned. Remaining silent between the two Tefillin ensures a smooth and spiritually complete fulfillment of this daily Misva.

Happy Friday, Listeners! Donato De Luca and his team brought their short film “Grand Romantic Gestures” to the Sherman Oaks Film Festival in 2024 and took home the Filmmakers Award for Outstanding Creativity - Drama. Amusingly, the young gentleman who I thought of as “Donato” for the entire run of the festival hopped onto this podcast and told me that he goes by Joe!                                                                                       I'm not sure if I called him Joe during this podcast, but hopefully he will come to a Festival Mixer soon for me to try it out in person. Joe is one of those filmmakers, in this case producer and lead actor, who we love to have at a festival.                                                                                                                                                                       He came to many screenings other than his own and when you listen to the interview you'll hear of the interactions we had that led to our amusing rapport.

Read OnlineLifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed saying: “I pray not only for these, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, so that they may all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me.”  John 17:20–21Over the past couple of weeks, we have been continually reading from Chapter 14–17 of John's Gospel. These chapters contain Jesus' Last Supper Discourses and provide us with Jesus' last sermon, so to speak. Chapter 17, which we have been reading this past week, presents us with Jesus' final prayer for His disciples and for all of us “who will believe” in Him through the preaching of the disciples. Each time we read from Chapter 17, the Lectionary begins the reading with the phrase “Lifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed saying…” That line is an adaptation of Chapter 17:1 but is used to introduce the various parts of the prayer of Jesus each time it is read at Mass.It's interesting that Jesus would look up to Heaven when He prayed. Of course, Heaven is not physically in the sky, because Heaven is a spiritual reality. The Father is not located in some place in the sky but is omnipresent, meaning, present all places and all times. And yet, Jesus raises His eyes upward when He prays to the Father. There is a great lesson in this.Our physical disposition is important, at times. For example, when someone we owe respect to enters a room, we usually rise and greet them. It would be disrespectful to remain lounging on a bed or sofa in that case. And at Mass, we do not sit back with legs crossed during the Consecration; rather, we kneel in adoration. And when we greet someone for the first time, we do not look at the floor; rather, we look them in the eyes.Jesus' act of “Lifting his eyes to heaven” was not done because He thought He might see the Father in the sky; rather, it was done out of respect and love and as a way of acknowledging the dignity of the Father. This should teach us about our own bodily disposition and the message we communicate to others, especially to God in prayer.When you pray, what do you do? Though you can pray at any time and while in any disposition, it is an excellent practice to speak to God not only by your words but also by the disposition you take. Kneeling, raising hands in prayer, falling prostrate before your Lord, sitting upright with attentiveness, etc., are all ways in which you communicate to God your love.Reflect, today, upon this image of Jesus praying. Gaze at how attentive He would have been as He lifted His sacred eyes upward as a physical gesture honoring the glorious, all-powerful Father in Heaven. Try to imagine Jesus' devotion, intensity, respect and burning love. Imitate this holy gesture of prayer and attentiveness to the Father and remind yourself of the importance of expressing your love in bodily form.My most holy Father in Heaven, I do join Your Son, Jesus, in lifting my eyes, my heart and my whole life to You in honor, love and respect. May I always be attentive to You and always show You the devotion due Your greatness. My dear Jesus, thank You for Your love of the Father in Heaven. Give me the grace I need to imitate You and Your perfect love in my life. Jesus, I trust in You.  El Greco, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

Lingthusiasm - A podcast that's enthusiastic about linguistics

Gestures: every known language has them, and there's a growing body of research on how they fit into communication. But academic literature can be hard to dig into on your own. So Lauren has spent the past 5 years diving into the gesture literature and boiling it down into a tight 147 page book. In this episode, your hosts Lauren Gawne and Gretchen McCulloch get enthusiastic about Lauren's new book, Gesture: A Slim Guide from Oxford University Press. Is it a general audience book? An academic book? A bit of both. (Please enjoy our highlights version in this episode, a slim guide to the Slim Guide, if you will.) We talk about the wacky hijinks gesture researchers have gotten up to with the aim of preventing people from gesturing without tipping them off that the study is about gesture, including a tricked-out "coloured garden relax chair" that makes people "um" more, as well as crosslinguistic gestural connections between signed and spoken languages, and how Gretchen's gestures in English have been changing after a year of ASL classes. Plus, a few behind-the-scenes moments: Lauren putting a line drawing of her very first gesture study on the cover, and how the emoji connection from Because Internet made its way into Gesture (and also into the emoji on your phone right now). There were also many other gesture stories that we couldn't fit in this episode, so keep an eye out for Lauren doing guest interviews on other podcasts! We'll add them to the crossovers page and the Lingthusiasm hosts elsewhere playlist as they come up. And if there are any other shows you'd like to hear a gesture episode on, feel free to tell them to chat to Lauren!

There's a leaping Gavagai rabbit, bouba and kiki shapes, and more...see how many items you can recognize! This sticker (or possibly a subtle variation...stay tuned for an all-patron vote!) will go out to everyone who's a patron at the Lingthusiast level or higher as of July 1st, 2025. We're also hoping that this sticker special offer encourages people to join and stick around as we need to do an inflation-related price increase at the Lingthusiast level. As we mentioned on the last bonus episode, our coffee hasn't cost us five bucks in a while now, and we need to keep paying the team who enables us to keep making the show amid our other linguistics prof-ing and writing jobs. In this month's bonus episode we get enthusiastic about linguist celebrities! We talk about start with the historically famous Brothers Grimm and quickly move onto modern people of varying levels of fame, including a curiously large number of linguistics figure skaters. We also talk about a few people who are famous within linguistics, including a recent memoir by Noam Chomsky's assistant Bev Stohl about what it was like keeping him fueled with coffee. And finally, we reflect on running into authors of papers we've read at conferences, when people started recognizing us sometimes, and our tips and scripts for navigating celebrity encounters from both sides.

He also sits down with Dave Goetsch, a co-executive producer and longtime writer for The Big Bang Theory, and journalist Jessica Radloff, who wrote an exhaustive book about the show.  This Slate miniseries dives into the art and science of meaningful conversations, inspired by Duhigg's bestselling book, Supercommunicators.  Supercommunicators was produced by Sophie Summergrad and Derek John, who also did the sound design. Our technical director is Merritt Jacob and our supervising producer is Joel Meyer. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
