Greetings to my readers,
As I mentioned in my last post, I’m going to be micro-blogging about meaningful tools that help connect us with our global environment. Today, I have made what I can only describe as an amazing discovery! One of the main complaints I hear from my clients on global teams is how difficult it can be to pronounce everyone’s name. This is no small worry; people’s names represent a part of their identity. To say a name incorrectly, especially over and over again, can cause strain. As much of my work revolves around India, I see Westerners struggling with embarrassment over mispronouncing their customers’ or employees’ Indian names.
Those days are over if you use this free tool. It’s called Audioname and it’s so simple to use, yet highly effective. Go to www.audioname.com. You can record your name into your computer (or call a toll free number to record it). Then you have the option to add it to your e-mail signature, social media, or your website. And it’s all free! When I think of the stress this can save worldwide team members I am hardly able to contain myself. Click on the play button below to listen to my name, and then give it a try for yourself. Post your Audio Name link here so I can hear your name. Until next time, enjoy!
