Effective virtual communication in business thrives on five key practices:

Clarity and Concision:  Craft messages tailored to the platform. Emails should be well-structured with clear subject lines and concise language.  Video presentations benefit from strong visuals that support, not replace, spoken points. Regardless of the medium, focus on the core message and avoid jargon or unnecessary complexity.

Active Listening and Engagement:  Virtual environments lack nonverbal cues, so active listening is crucial. Pay close attention to what's being said, ask clarifying questions, and paraphrase key points to demonstrate understanding. Encourage participation through polls, breakout rooms, or chat features to keep everyone engaged.

Professionalism and Etiquette:  Maintain a professional online presence. Dress appropriately for video calls, use a clean and distraction-free virtual background, and practice good microphone etiquette (muting when not speaking).  Be mindful of time zones when sending emails and respect colleagues' schedules by avoiding unnecessary interruptions.

Leveraging Technology:  Utilize the tools available to enhance your communication.  Screen sharing allows for visual explanations, online whiteboards facilitate brainstorming, and breakout rooms foster focused discussions.  Mastering these features creates a more dynamic and informative virtual experience.

Building Rapport and Trust:  While physical presence is absent, fostering connection is vital.  Start meetings with icebreakers to create a lighter mood. Use video calls whenever possible to build rapport through facial expressions and body language.  Be transparent in your communication and acknowledge contributions from all participants to create a sense of trust and inclusivity.

IELTS speaking fears

What are they? Here are some students' comments over the internet:

"Honestly my greatest fear in IELTS is the speaking section. I’ve taken the exam 6 times already since 2014 without hitting my target score of 7. My speaking score is consistently 6.5 throughout the exams. My nervousness really gets overwhelming with my failure. Just a mere mention of IELTS makes me cringe. I feel so hurt and phobic of the exam."

Imagine this, right?

As I said in the podcast, hard skills (preparing for the questions) aren't the only thing students need to prepare for.

Mental training, calming down, breathing exercises, and learning to cool down are some techniques you can take to elevate your score.

If it sounds new and you simply haven't heard of it, use it, and it will be a HUGE assistance for your WHOLE life.

Dive into my harmonising meditation I did earlier to learn to relax more.

Be well and let me know how I can help you.

Capítulo 34 - ¡Mi cumple!

孙子说：古代善于指挥作战的人，总是先创造条件使自己处于不被战胜的地位，然后等待战胜敌人的机会。做到不被战胜，关键在于自己能否掌握主动权；敌人能否被战胜，在于敌人是否给我们以可乘之机。所以，善于作战的人，能够做到不被敌人战胜，而不是做到战胜敌人。所以说，胜利可以预见，却不能强求。
 
有了不被战胜的条件，就可以守；敌方出现了可乘之机，就可以攻。之所以施行防守，是因为实力不足，取胜的条件不够充分；之所以采取进攻，是因为实力强大而敌人相对弱小。善于防守的，如同深藏于地底，敌人无迹可寻；善于进攻的，能高度机动灵活地打击敌人，犹如神兵天降，让敌人防不胜防。所以，善防善攻的军队，既能保全自己，又能战胜敌人。
