Is there a real difference between talking and speaking?. What do I focus on to be an effective and great communicator, Talking or Speaking?
There is a reason why they say: "speak your mind" and "he talks non-sense". And "he gave a speech" as opposed to "he gave a talk".
Speaking is a deeper form of verbal communication, whether rational or emotional, I think. Not everybody who talks actually speaks (to us) in a commanding way. When people talk we can ignore them, but when they speak we mostly listen with a higher degree of attention, hence the elevating term "speaker", given to those who master speech giving.
Great Orators speak, great conversationalists talk!
Communication is easy task and as well as toughest task.
I would suggest to leave the both terms as mentioned by you, but you have to be focused to be as a communicator.
For effective communication what I do is as below :
1) Having complete knowledge of the communication which have to be delivered.
2) Having homework for possible questions thay may arise due to communication.
3) Having homework on rough papers before formal communication.
4) Getting clear the points for which I have to communicate.
5) Understanding the subject over which communication is to delivered.
6) always be subject specific
7) to avoid prompt answering
8) taking feedbacks of communication to know what explained in communication has been got understood to the listerns or not.
9) Greeting at the end.
10 ) STILL LEARNING
Speaking tends to be a one sided discussion. It can be formal as well. Talking on the other hand is more of a conversation or dialogue between2 or more persons.So for an effective communication, talking is better. Remembering to listen to the other person's need or idea, then responding properly is key.
