What is the key personality you need to become a better communicator?

The one that encompasses & encapsulates what I'd call the Obama Factor . Yes you read it right , the Obama Factor ( The Equanimity Effect )  . You may not agree with American President , as most of us do , Politically speaking , notwithstanding , he has what it takes to become an exquisite & perfect Communicator . This Factor is three-pronged Formula . If one manages , in my humble opinion , to crack it , heart & soul , then one would be able to be qualified & categorized as a successful Communicator . These three prongs , factors , what ever you want to call them are pre-requisites & pre-conditions to any off-the-chart , unrivaled & unmatched Communication , & , they are simply put ( Calm - Cool - Collected ) . If you are  , & , I'm talking in general here , inherently & innately a calm , cool & collected person , then you'd have accomplished & covered already half of the road towards a top-notch Communication , & , everything , consequently , will naturally & logically fall into place . Of course having a good Educational back ground will play a positive role in defining your personal traits , qualities , attributes & characteristics to be a good Speaker . Nonetheless , these immaterial Factors will go along , long way in defining your over-all mental capacity to be the Good Communicator that you want to be . Now , this Factor will help you to arrive at the following : 

1- You'll have the Confidence in self all through out to conduct & carry out an almost flawless Communication , Cos' then you already have had the ability to conduct, behave & carry your self in an assured , spot-on , confident & on-the-massage manner . And Confidence is key here , because " If you have no confidence in self , you are twice defeated in the race of life . With Confidence you have one even before you have started " . And This is a splendid segue to the next requisite , which is the significance of being ,2- Articulate . You have to have a clear-eyed , on--the-spot , hands-on , on-the-prize , transparently-verbalized Approach , in order for you to be an Articulate Communicator . Cos' at the end of the day every one can simply " Talk " , it's just a human nature , however , not every body is able to articulate , verbalize , put into words what they think , feel , & react-to , in a manner that they'd be described as Articulate Communicators & Speakers . The ability to convey to others what you think , what you stand for , what are your likes & dislikes , is , an Art in of itself , that requires the Mastery & Command to be able , not only to practice it , but also to excel at it . 3- This will assist you in your endeavor & feat to acquire & attain the only rational consequence & result to all of the above-mentioned , assuming that you've already , incessantly , worked your tails off  & you simply have paid your dues . And this rational , much sought-after fall out is Accuracy & perspicacity . The ability to obtain the Communications Acumen , the keen insight & shrewdness to engage & disengage , to act & re-act , to effect & be affected , to influence & be influenced , all in a random & out-of-the blue Conversation & Communication that any one of us could find themselves in , any time of the day or the week . Cos' then it'll come to you as a second nature , in an easy , fluid , flowing way , that'd impress , nail & demand the Recognition & Respect that all of us aspire for . & Always remember , Commitment & Taking The Initiative is the Slogan & Motto that'll always help you to accomplish , realize & arrive at your goals , aims , objectives & purposes in life , in general . Simply put , you have to earn it . ( & That's the way it goes ) .
