TALLADO EN PIEDRA.

Un italiano te va a ayudar con tu español? 🤔 ¡Así es! Vilfredo Pareto creó 'the 80/20 rule', it highlights que roughly 80% of effects come from 20% of causes. some examples: 
-80% of results are achieved with 20% of the effort 
-80% of daily communication 🗣 is  done with 20% of the vocabulary📕

Spanish tip💡: learn 1000 spanish words, understand 80% of the conversations you wanna have. 
¿how to choose the words? 
1. Piensa en las expresiones que más usas en tu idioma nativo 
2. crea una lista de chunks (frases esenciales)
3. Piensa en los temas que te interesan (deportes, arte, música...)
4. Separa las palabras en categorías como: verbos, conectores, preposiciones, adjetivos, sustantivos, adverbios...

Gracias por estar aquí, ¡Ten una linda semana! 💛💙❤️

As a communication coach, I witness the transformative power of preparation in business communication.  Winging it might work occasionally, but for consistent success, pre-communication planning is your secret weapon.  Here are my top 6  tips to ensure you dominate your next meeting, presentation, or email exchange:

1. Know Your Audience:  This isn't a cliche; it's the foundation.  Research your audience's background, interests, and pain points.  Tailor your language and message to resonate with them.  Imagine explaining your idea to a friend – that level of clarity and connection is what you're aiming for.

2. Define Your Purpose:  What is the single most important takeaway you want your audience to have?  Is it to inform, persuade, or simply update?  Having a clear purpose keeps your message focused and avoids information overload.

3. Craft a Compelling Message:  Less is more.  Eliminate jargon and redundancy.  Structure your message with a clear beginning, middle, and end.  Practice your delivery beforehand, paying attention to pacing, tone, and body language.

4. Anticipate Roadblocks:  Forewarned is forearmed.  Think of potential objections or questions your audience might have.  Prepare clear, concise responses that address these concerns head-on.  This demonstrates confidence and proactive problem-solving.

5. Choose Your Weapon Wisely:  Not all communication channels are created equal.  Consider the purpose and audience when selecting your method.  A complex proposal might be best delivered as a written document, while a team update could thrive on a video call.

6. Embrace Technology:  Utilize presentation tools effectively.  Visuals can significantly enhance understanding and retention of your message.  However, avoid information overload –  keep slides clean and focused on supporting your core points.

TOP 6 Best Practices for Business Communication Preparation - EP 26

Welcome to another episode on Engine English today we will be looking at idioms. Idioms are one of the hardest parts of learning a language. For those of you who don’t know, an idiom is a phrase that has a meaning, but the meaning is not clear from the words themselves. If you translate an idiom word for word, it sometimes makes no sense at all. They are like puzzles and even native speakers can get confused when someone uses a phrase that they’ve never heard of.

If you have any questions or ideas for my next episode please feel free to drop me a message in the comments section.
