Your voice before you believe what you're saying
Something I keep noticing in sessions: when a leader says a sentence they aren't fully convinced by, their voice does a tiny thing. It goes up at the end. Even on a statement. "We're going to hit the number?" instead of "We're going to hit the number."
The room hears it before the speaker does. And once the room hears it, the message is already weaker than you wanted.
Fix: before your next important sentence, decide if you believe it. If you don't, rewrite it until you do. If you can't rewrite it, say something smaller that you do believe. The voice follows the conviction, not the other way.
What's one sentence you've been saying in meetings lately that might be getting that upward lift at the end?
