The Top 10 Ways Dogs Are Better Speakers Than Humans

Dogs may know more about presenting than all the speech coaches in the world.Maybe your next presentation should go the dogs. When two dogs made their entrance at a business meeting I was at recently, here’s what I noted about their presentation technique:

1.      Dogs always seem glad to see you. (I’ve excused pit bulls from the analysis.)

2.      There is no artifice or pretense about their greeting. They just come right up to you and make friends. They communicate friendly little noises—but never give you a long line of guff.

3.      They show the same affectionate attention to everybody. Their demonstrative without being pushy.

4.      Their message is simple: “We like you. We like being here. We’ll help you in any way we can.”

5.      They have no hidden agendas.

6.      Their body language is telegraphic.

7.      They don’t do most of the things that dull coaches and speakers do: they don’t carry scripts, don’t monotone endlessly about themselves, don’t lean on podiums, don’t tell bad jokes or endless stories (not even endless shaggy dog stories)

8.      Dogs have great sense of knowing when they’re no longer the center of attraction. They just go over and lie down. They don’t go overtime.

 9.      They know who they are. Most of them have endearing personalities.

10.      They’re good friends. They don’t come in, put on a show, and hurry out to waiting limo or taxicab. They’ll stay with you as long as you need them.

Dogs may know more than all the speech coaches in the world. Next time you see a dog—-in a business meeting or anywhere—go over and present yourself. Dogs are great listeners.
