DESCRIPTION:<a href="http://popcornclubshanghai.com/event/the-art-of-quiet-
 authority-speaking-lessons-from-gurus-45836/register">The Art Of Quiet Aut
 hority: Speaking Lessons From Gurus</a>\nSome of the most powerful speaker
 s in the world barely raise their voices. Spiritual leaders\, monks and mi
 ndfulness teachers can hold the attention of an entire room through calmne
 ss\, conviction and something most of us are terrified to use when speakin
 g: silence. In this practical workshop\, brilliant TEDx public speaking co
 ach Violetta\, who works with high-level executives\, will explore The Art
  of Quiet Authority. By looking at speakers such as Thích Nhất Hạnh\,
  we'll examine how pacing\, eye contact\, vocal control and deliberate pau
 ses can create trust and make an idea feel more powerful\, without needing
  to become louder\, faster or more theatrical. You'll also explore how tra
 ditional Chinese values such as modesty (qianxu) and inner calm can become
  strengths rather than limitations when speaking English. Then you'll put 
 the techniques into practice yourself. In The Power of the Pause\, you'll 
 give a short reflection on an ordinary object while deliberately using sil
 ence to create emphasis\, connection and presence. How long can three seco
 nds feel when everyone is listening to you\, and can you learn to become c
 omfortable owning that silence? Whether you're presenting to executives\, 
 speaking in meetings\, giving a speech or simply trying to communicate wit
 h more confidence\, you'll leave with practical techniques for commanding 
 attention without demanding it. 世界上一些最有影响力的演讲者
 其实很少提高嗓门。精神领袖、僧侣和正念导师们，靠
 的是平静、笃定，以及我们大多数人在讲话时最怕用的
 一样东西：沉默，就能牢牢抓住全场注意力。在这场实
 战工作坊中，超厉害的TEDx演讲教练Violetta（她平时辅导
 的是高管级别的人）会带我们探索“安静的力量”这门
 艺术。我们会以Thích Nhất Hạnh等演讲者为范例，看看如
 何通过节奏、眼神交流、声音控制和有意的停顿来建立
 信任，让观点更有分量，而不需要更大声、更快或更戏
 剧化。 你还会发现，像谦虚（qianxu）和内心平静这些中
 国传统价值，在说英语时反而能成为优势，而不是限制
 。然后你会亲自实践这些技巧。在“停顿的力量”环节
 ，你会对一个普通物品做一段简短分享，同时刻意用沉
 默来制造强调、连接和存在感。当所有人都在听你的时
 候，三秒钟能有多漫长？你能学会从容地驾驭那份沉默
 吗？无论你是要给高管做汇报、在会议上发言、发表演
 讲，还是只是想更自信地与人交流，你走的时候都会带
 走一套实用的方法，让你不需要大声吆喝就能吸引注意
 力。
