You cannot lead effectively if you can\u2019t speak, you can\u2019t cultivate professional advancement if you can\u2019t speak. James Humes an author and former presidential speechwriter once said, the art of communication is the language of leadership\u201d these are the words of a man who wrote speeches for Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan, Benjamin Franklin, and many other leaders worldwide. There is no winging it in public speaking and leaders or professionals who invest in it develop a confident and persuasive voice,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs Chisanga-Mayer is the first female Zambian Toastmaster to be awarded the Distinguished Toastmaster Award, a communication and leadership award that represents the highest level of educational achievement in Toastmasters International.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEffective communication and public speaking are a key skill to becoming a good leader. It is not what you say but how you say it. You can use as many complex words as possible, you can use any language of your choice, but if you do not encompass emotional intelligence, truth, good listening skills, respect, owning and telling your story and so many other speech devices required for one to communicate in a manner that leaves a footprint; people will not listen to you and sadly may not respect you. What you say, how you say it when you say it, to whom you say it, and whether you say it within the proper context are critical components of being an exceptional speaker and leader.\u201d She said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
