Lesson 2 text 2

This week, you’ll hear from the very first guest on the Express to Impress podcast. Allyson Plumberg, Founder of Rooted Accents: Solutions for Accent Modification, joins me to discuss accent modification. 

Allyson provides speech therapy services and accent modification coaching to students and professionals worldwide. She has a Master of Science degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Arizona State University.

The episode is the first of two with my conversation with Allison. It’s packed full of useful information for English language learners. 

We kick off the conversation with a definition of an accent and have a quick discussion about the General American English accent and micro accents.

Then, we dive into a discussion about common beliefs about accents. Allison debunks common myths that limit people from being able to speak English effectively.

We also talk about speaking speed, word stress, content versus function words, stressed and unstressed syllables, reductions, contractions, and more!

Want an American English Accent? Allyson Plumberg Debunks Accent Myths

Understanding Different Perspectives:

Step into Their Shoes:  Each department has its own metrics for success.  Marketing might prioritize customer acquisition, while engineering focuses on product quality and  feasibility.  Understanding their goals fosters empathy and reveals potential areas of collaboration.

Communicate Clearly: Clearly outline your desired outcomes and explain how they align with the company's overall objectives. Frame your requests in a way that resonates with their priorities.

Finding Common Ground:

Focus on Benefits:  Negotiation shouldn't be a win-lose scenario.  Instead, seek solutions that provide value to all parties involved. Brainstorm creative solutions that address everyone's concerns.

Be Prepared to Compromise:  Recognize that concessions are often necessary. Identify areas where you have flexibility and be willing to make trade-offs that won't severely hinder your core objectives.

Active Listening and Collaboration:

Listen Attentively:  Pay close attention to their concerns and reservations. Ask clarifying questions to ensure a complete understanding of their perspective.

Collaborative Problem-Solving:  Work together to address challenges.  Their insights might reveal unforeseen roadblocks or opportunities you haven't considered.

Maintaining Positive Dynamics:

Respectful Demeanor:  Throughout the negotiation, maintain a professional and respectful tone.  Avoid accusatory language or dismissive attitudes.

Focus on the Future: Don't dwell on past disagreements.  Keep the conversation focused on reaching a mutually beneficial solution moving forward.

Consistency is key to measurable progress. Confidence is grown from control and preparation.
