Ep. 3 - Essential Questions to Ask During an Interview

In the world of business, persuasion reigns supreme. It's not just about slick sales pitches; it's about influencing others to see your point of view, be it a client considering your product, a colleague on a new strategy, or an investor on your venture.

The core of persuasion lies in understanding your audience.  What are their needs, wants, and potential objections? By tailoring your message to address these concerns, you build trust and credibility.  Facts and figures are powerful, but framing them in a way that resonates with your audience is key.  Highlight how your product solves their pain points or your idea benefits their goals.

Different audiences respond to different persuasive tactics.  For analytical thinkers, data and research hold weight.  Emotional connectors, on the other hand, respond better to stories and testimonials that paint a vivid picture of the positive impact.

Remember, persuasion is a two-way street. Listen attentively to your audience's perspective. Acknowledge their concerns and address them directly.  This fosters a collaborative environment where they feel heard and respected, making them more receptive to your ideas.

Effective persuasion goes beyond mere words.  It's about non-verbal cues too. Confident body language, strong eye contact, and an enthusiastic tone project conviction and inspire trust.

Finally, persuasion is an ongoing process.  Be prepared to answer questions and provide additional information.  The goal is not to pressure, but to guide your audience towards a win-win situation.

By mastering the art of persuasion, you can become a powerful advocate for your ideas, your business, and yourself.

Persuasion and Business Communication - Episode 96

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日も少しだけ、雪がふりました。
どんどん寒くなります。
コロナの感染者も増えているので気をつけようと思っています。


さて、今日は和食について。
みなさんは、和食、と聞いたら何を思い浮かべますか？
寿司？ラーメン？焼肉？
いろんな種類の和食がありますね。

今回はそんな中でも、
日本人の伝統的な食文化としての、和食について、いくつ簡単に話しますね。

季節ごとに楽しめる食材があります。
食を通して家族は絆を強めていました。
一汁三菜いちじゅうさんさい、といって、栄養バランスが良い。

などが特徴です。

他にも、
ローカルな地元の郷土料理がある。
おせち料理、行事の食事など、
たくさんの特徴があります。

日本では、食べる前に、いただきます、
食べた後にごちそうさまでした、といいます。

食材や、料理した人、食べることへの感謝などを手を合わせて言う、ということも日本ならではかもしれませんね。

小さい時ははしの持ち方に苦労したことを今思い出しました。


とはいえ、このような和食の文化はどんどんなくなっているようにも感じます。自分も小さい時に比べると和食を食べることは減りました。

でも、このオンラインレッスンで海外のみなさんと話すことで、もっと日本のことを知りたいなと思うようになりました。みなさんに日本のことを伝えたいと思います。

そのためにも、和食についても少し勉強してみようと思います。時々、Podcastでも和食について話しますね！

みなさんの好きな和食はなんですか？
よければ、オンラインレッスン、italkiで話しましょう！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
