The Self Styled Podcast Episode 20: How To Use Your Style As A Form Of Non-Verbal Communication

While political style may seem boring, speech writing teams and political advisors actually spend a significant amount of time looking at style as part of their overall communication plan.

Listen in to hear how you can use use your personal style to create a more memorable personal brand by learning:

Find out how you can use accessories like she did to help your audience connect more deeply with you and your message.
  • How Melania Trump’s outfit at the Republican National Convention this year was an example of how your personal style can overshadow your message if what you wear and what you say are not aligned (and how you can avoid doing this at your next talk or presentation)
  • How Kamala Harris’ decision to wear head-to-toe purple at the Democratic National Convention served to reinforce her identity and remind viewers that not all women were grated the right to vote in the U.S. on the 100th anniversary of the women’s suffrage movement.
