Speaking with confidence conveys your knowledge or mastery (i.e. competency) of the information you’re sharing, and it makes a difference in the way people see you at work.

As someone who talks for a living, I do it. All. The. Time.

I practice scripts before going on-air.
I verbalize the introduction I’m going to make when I meet a new player or coach in the locker room.
