John Werner’s linguistic journey…

Began when he asked his brother, “Why don’t we sound like TV?” when TV only had 5 channels. His rough and tumble journey to emotion smarts makes your emotion smart journey a walk in the woods, both fun and challenging.

 

I am fascinated by the sound of languages. Particularly, how our sound messages are a completely separate language from our “word language.” A sound message is the volume, tone, and speed of words spoken, plus silence, and all other speech sounds from our mouth and throat. Sound messages will support the words, be neutral to them, or completely detract from them. Our sound messages are clues to ourselves and help us manage our spoken words, especially with feedback from others. Sound messages reveal our emotions and the emotions of others. They are critical clues needed to manage our relationships with others.

 

My goal is to teach you how to use sound messages to gain a greater understanding of yourself, your family, your friends, your peers and employers, your employees, and those you meet in public spaces.

 

John has science degrees in Engineering and Organization Development, and an AA degree with an emphasis in music. By combining linguistics with music theory, he is the leader in all things emotion smart.
