What Type of Talker Are You?

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

Over the past year, I’ve been paying close attention to the type of talker I am. My goal in doing this is to improve my communication skills, as well as the type of person I’m striving to become. Over the years, I watched all kinds of talkers in action - the smooth talkers, the shit talkers, the big talkers, the wind talkers, the sweet talkers, and the trash talkers to name a few. Each type of talker has made an impression on me - either positive and negative. For instance, the smooth talker knows how to work
his/her communication to influence or get what they want; whereas the trash talker tends to rub people the wrong way.
