Why numbers are only as compelling as the narratives we attach to them.Facts and figures can be your friend, but before you load your presentation full of data, Miro Kazakoff has a word of caution: “Data's objective, but people are not.”You might think that your data speaks for itself, but Kazakoff says numbers need a narrative. A senior lecturer at MIT Sloan School of Management and author of Persuading with Data: A Guide to Designing, Delivering, and Defending Your Data, he says the key to making data persuasive isn't about showing more information — it's about understanding your audience well enough to know how to relay it in a way that will connect with them. "The people who get good at this are not so much the people who can talk and draw graphs well, but the people who can listen the best. It starts with is empathy.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Kazakoff joins Matt Abrahams to explore how to transform complex data into clear, compelling communication. From avoiding the "curse of knowledge" to effectively orienting your audience through visualizations, he shares practical strategies for making your data not just informative, but persuasive.Episode Reference Links:Miro KazakoffMiro's Book: Persuading with DataEp.49 Make Numbers Count: How to Communicate Data Effectively Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:14) - How to Use Data Persuasively (04:01) - The Curse of Knowledge in Data Communication (06:26) - The Best Way to Present Data Visually (08:41) - The Role of Context in Making Data Meaningful (10:53) - Orienting Your Audience When Presenting Data (13:29) - Storytelling in Data Communication (15:30) - The Final Three Questions (20:29) - Conclusion  ********Become a Faster Smarter Supporter by joining TFTS Premium.

“What people regret over time are things they didn't do. They didn't take that trip, they didn't ask that person out on a date. They didn't start that business,” says former political speechwriter and author Dan Pink. “I think it's because we are slightly over-indexed on risk. We overstate the risk in many circumstances.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, strategic communications lecturer Matt Abrahams sits down with Pink to hear how we can take more risks and how leaders can inspire others by focusing on the why instead of the how. “There's almost incontrovertible evidence that a sense of purpose is the most cost-effective performance enhancer that organizations have,” Pink says.Episode Reference Links:Dan Pink: WebsiteDan's Books: Website Original Episode: Ep.92 No Regrets: How to Take Risks in Your Communication, Relationships, and Career Website / YouTubeEp.103 Simple Is a Superpower: How to Communicate Any Idea to Any Audience Website / YouTube Ep.80 Magic Words: Change What You Say to Inspire and Influence Others Website / YouTubeConnect:Email Questions & Feedback >>> thinkfast@stanford.eduEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn Page, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInStanford GSB >>> LinkedIn & TwitterChapters:(00:00:00) IntroductionHost Matt Abrahams introduces guest Dan Pink, a NYT bestselling author and former political speechwriter.(00:01:17) Lessons from Political SpeechwritingInsights from Dan's experience as a political speechwriter.(00:03:58) Speak Like a HumanThe necessity of authentic communication and the power of speaking naturally and directly.(00:07:57) The Role of Immediacy in CommunicationHow immediacy can enhance connection and engagement in communication.(00:09:24) Problem Finding vs. Problem-SolvingThe value of identifying hidden problems in persuasive communication and sales.(00:11:21) Understanding and Harnessing PurposeHow purpose enhances motivation and performance in work and life.(00:15:11) Communication, Risk, and RegretThe impact of perceived versus actual risk in communication and decision-making.(00:20:16) Timing and Breaks for Enhanced PerformanceOptimizing performance through strategic timing and the importance of taking breaks.(00:22:41) The Final Three QuestionDan shares communication advice, a communicator he admires, and three ingredients for successful communication.(00:25:39) ConclusionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When we think in terms of creating persuasive communication, it's really important to consider the flow. What is the flow of the communication? In what order are you asking these questions and having these conversations? Are you leading with the pitch? Because if you're leading with the sales pitch, then that's not going to work well at all. David: Hi, and welcome to the podcast. In today's episode, co host Jay McFarland and I will be discussing creating persuasive communication. Welcome back, Jay. Jay: Thanks, David. You mean all communication is not good communication? I just thought sending out emails and random texts, that's the way to go. David: Yeah, random communication is often different than persuasive communication. I guess sometimes it can line up, but the stars have to all be in alignment for that to happen. Jay: Yeah, I see this. I get emails saying, Hey, just following up. And I'm like, Oh, you know, I don't know that that's really how you want to approach a potential customer. There's no energy, there's no urgency, there's nothing persuasive about it. It kind of feels meh. And, I recognize that now cause I'm in that business, right? David: Exactly. And I think if we start from the premise that different prospects have different needs, that's a really good way to start. Because I think a lot of salespeople tend to think in terms of persuasive communication, meaning saying things that will get them to buy from you. And that's only the case if and when we've determined that we have a good fit with the person that we're talking to, right? Persuasive communication doesn't just mean getting them to buy. It's about seeing if they buy into what it is that we do, seeing if we've got enough of a fit to have it make sense. What I think in terms of persuasive communication, it's the kind of thing that's going to get people engaged. It's going to pull them into the conversation rather than repel them from the conversation. So while the term persuasive sort of implies that we're trying to persuade them to do something, that is true, but it's not just about that. It's not just about trying to get someone to do something. It's about seeing if what we're talking about to begin with even makes sense. Jay: Yeah, and I think we talked about that a lot in our last episode, getting to know that customer so that you can build loyalty. How do you expect to send out persuasive communication if you haven't taken the time to get to know them? And for example, I'm in the tax business, which is hard for me to say, I can't believe that happened. But my communication is very different right now in the summer than it is in March, right? In March, there's a built in urgency, and so it's a lot easier to communicate to them what they need. This time of year, very different. David: Right, and the things that you need to persuade them of now are different than the things you have to persuade them of in January, February, March, right? Because what you need to persuade them of now is perhaps thinking in advance about what they're going to need to do rather than trying to cram it in at the last minute. So that's going to change the languaging. If you think in terms of who do you need to appeal to, that's going to be happening throughout the year. What type of prospect am I looking to bring in the door, and how can I help that person to make a decision based on what we're doing as opposed to what someone else is doing? You know, what are they likely to want? And we can't always know that. We can assume, okay, well, I think they're going to want to pay less taxes. That's probably a reasonable assumption. And for some people, for most of them, that's probably going to be the case, but there might be some sort of extenuating circumstance that plays into that as well. And if you're not touching on that, if you haven't taken the time to understand what it is they're actually looking for,

Have you ever wanted to convince others to go along with an idea or get your team to be on board with a new project you're planning? Or maybe you've wanted to get your leader to agree to a new idea you have that you think will make a big impact in the long run. Or, perhaps you're wanting to raise funds for a ministry or missions trip. In all of these cases, you are needing one thing: persuasive communication. You are trying to get someone else to go along with what you want them to think or do.   In today's episode we cover 4 steps to sharing your message persuasively. I explore the lessons I've learned from marketing and apologetics and how we can apply these lessons to our communication as Christian leaders.   Connect with Esther: Esther's Website Instagram

The ways supercommunicators operate and how to emulate their techniques.Across more than 130 episodes, Think Fast, Talk Smart has touched a lot on what it takes to be a good communicator. But what about reaching that next level? What about being a “supercommunicator”? Supercommunicator is a term used by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and author Charles Duhigg in his latest book, Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection. In this podcast episode, Abrahams and Duhigg explore the precise techniques that distinguish a good communicator from a “supercommunicator:” traits such as active listening; looping for understanding to demonstrate genuine engagement; and identifying what someone is truly feeling, underneath what they actually say.Episode Reference Links:Charles Duhigg: WebsiteCharles Duhigg: BooksDuhigg's New Yorker articleThalia Wheatley's research study: The Repurposed Social Brain Nicholas Epley's research paper: Overly Shallow?: Miscalibrated Expectations Create a Barrier to Deeper ConversationAlison Wood Brooks' research paper: The Conversational Circumplex: Identifying, Prioritizing, and Pursuing Informational and Relational Motives in ConversationMichael Yeomans' research paper: It Helps to Ask: The Cumulative Benefits of Asking Follow-Up QuestionsSheila Heen's research project: Harvard Negotiation ProjectEp.92 - No Regrets: How to Take Risks: YouTube / Website Ep.82 - It's Not About You: Why Effective Communicators Put Others First: YouTube / Website Ep.103 - Simple is a Superpower: How to Communicate Any Idea to an Audience: YouTube / WebsiteConnect:Email Questions & Feedback >>> thinkfast@stanford.eduEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn Page, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInStanford GSB >>> LinkedIn & TwitterChapters:(00:00:00) IntroductionHost Matt Abrahams introduces guest Charles Duhigg and his new book Super Communicators.(00:01:26) Transition from Habits to CommunicationDuhigg shares how personal experiences and a desire to understand human interactions motivated him to explore communication.(00:02:51) The Neuroscience of Connection The neuroscience behind successful communication and the role of neural entrainment in establishing connection and understanding.(00:04:21) Storytelling as a Powerful Communication ToolThe importance of storytelling in communication and how stories foster empathy and engagement.(00:06:16) Identifying and Aligning Conversation Types Three types of conversations (practical, emotional, social) and the necessity of aligning conversation types for effective communication.(00:08:07) Practices of Super Communicators Insights into the habits of super communicators, including their approach to recognizing conversation types and the importance of deep listening.(00:15:02) Navigating Conflict Through Effective Communication Managing conflictual conversations with a focus on listening, understanding, and managing control dynamics.(00:20:50) Challenges of Online Communication Challenges and strategies for communicating in online and virtual settings.(00:25:04) The Craft and Impact of StorytellingApproaches to storytelling and its significance in making complex ideas memorable and engaging.(00:29:06) Developing New Communication Habits New communication habits developed from Duhigg's research and their impact on personal and professional interactions.(00:31:02) The Final Three QuestionsCharles Duhigg discusses the importance of deep questions, the communicator he most admires, and his recipe for successful communication.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Eric Oliver explores the universal impact of persuasive communication, highlighting its pivotal role in shaping perceptions and decisions in everyday interactions and legal contexts alike. Our ability to focus is now fleeting, fragile, and fragmented—characteristics that have been part of our collective attention span well before the advent of cell phones. This impairment in our attention makes it crucial to employ nonverbal and visual strategies to capture and maintain focus. For trial lawyers, this means crafting and presenting their cases more as engaging stories than mere collections of facts, ensuring these narratives resonate with the implicit biases and assumptions held by roughly half of today's jurors. This approach, along with sharing effective methods to combat attention deficits in the courtroom—or any setting—aims to improve focus and comprehension for everyone involved. Eric Oliver boasts an extensive career spanning 40 years in national trial consulting, where he has been instrumental in coaching and assisting trial attorneys. His profound knowledge and expertise have played critical roles in numerous cases, leading to unprecedented successes and advantages for clients from prestigious law firms to innovative individual practices. Specializing in the influence of persuasive communication on the interpretation of case facts and their effect on legal judgments, Eric underscores the necessity for attorneys to invest considerable effort into presenting a well-crafted case narrative through verbal, visual, and non-verbal means.

Lawyers are taught that logic is their best friend.  BUT, in the real world, human beings make their most important decisions based on EMOTION, not LOGIC.  So how do you present your facts in a way that taps into the genuine emotions of the decision makers?  Come on people, you know this:  A good, true, & well told story! Helping us get Set For Sentencing, and joyfully continuing our ongoing conversation on legal narrative, is story expert, Matthew David.  As a screenwriter and Dr. Randy Olson's right hand man, Matt is deep into the world of narrative.  He knows the "ABT" (AND, BUT, THEREFORE) template like the back of his hand.  Even better, Matt formulated his own expression of the ABT, Dr. Olson now affectionately calls “the Matt Template” which goes like this:  Heaven AND heaven, BUT hell, THEREFORE action!  Now, let's see how that works in the world of sentencing storytelling (spoiler alert – it works like magic). This episode is not only entertaining AF, it's filled with practical advice on how to effectively and powerfully communicate your client's story to any decision-maker.  IN THIS EPISODE: The “Matt Template” & how it will instantly allow you to begin crafting your compelling case narrative; The “And, But, Therefore” narrative template and examples; The “ordinary world” in the hero's journey – what and why it is; The two levels of hero's journey that exist in criminal case narrative; Somewhere Over the Rainbow – the quintessential musical manifestion of “heaven” in narrative structure; What it means to “amplify the pain” and why it is essential you do it in every story; The role of hero and sage in criminal sentencing stories –and how to tell the difference; Why the “hero's journey”, embodied in the ABT structure, resonates with every human being; Using Star Wars, The Wizard of Oz, The Hunger Games, and the Matrix to illustrate all of these points; Our favorite screenwriting and story book recommendations.
