How To Speak Like The 1% Elite by Natalie Dawson:
Natalie shares five communication principles used by top professionals to command respect and lead effectively:
1. Speak to lead, not to be liked
Adopt a leader’s mindset: speak with certainty. Avoid phrases like “I think” or “I feel,” and instead say definitive statements (e.g., “The best path forward is…”). This signals confidence and decisiveness. facebook.com+5ytscribe.com+5youtube.com+52. Emotions weaken your credibility
Reacting emotionally undermines trust. High-performing leaders filter emotion from decisions. Be like grass—not a brittle toothpick: let pressure pass through and stay grounded. ytscribe.com3. Speak with weight
Authority comes from clarity and purpose, not volume. Before entering meetings, define your purpose. If you’re unsure why you’re there, question whether you should be—or participate with intent. twitter.com+4ytscribe.com+4instagram.com+44. Ask powerful, strategic questions
Leadership isn’t about having all the answers but knowing the right questions. Instead of “What do you think?” ask “What data supports this?” or “What would prevent this from happening again?” This uncovers insights and drives progress. ytscribe.com5. Stop oversharing
Over-explaining diminishes authority. Deliver concise, direct messages and stop once you’ve made your point. Observe confident body language—proper posture, calm gestures, projected voice—to reinforce your message. instagram.com+2ytscribe.com+2youtube.com+2Together, these five practices help you communicate like the top 1%—clear, decisive, and commanding respect. Let me know if you’d like specific tips tailored to your goals.
