Condi and the confidence markers
Yes, it sounds like the name of a pop band. No, it’s not.
CommLog, however, has a great post on confidence markers — the verbal and non-verbal clues we give off to denote certainty — and how they weren’t in overwhelming evidence in Condoleeza Rice’s testimony last week.
Alan Nelson does a great job of laying out the basic markers, and it’s something every communications pro and business development professional should commit to memory for greater success.
