Description

At the Annecy Festival, I watched Julie Ann Crommett masterfully quiet a packed, buzzing room—not by raising her voice, but through a clever and engaging technique. Instead of shouting over people or asking for silence, she said:“Clap three times if you can hear me.”A few people clapped. Then she said, “Clap five times if you can hear me.” More joined in. Within seconds, the whole room was quiet, attentive, and ready.This method works anywhere—weddings, classrooms, meetings, panels, you name it. It flips the psychology of command into playful participation, resetting everyone’s focus without tension. In this episode, I break down why this works, how to apply it yourself, and how it can help you lead more calmly and effectively in any situation.🚀 Looking for a Creative Collaborator or Coach?Whether you need help launching a podcast, shaping your story, editing a video, or navigating the artist’s life—I’m here to help.✅ Work with me: https://philsvitek.com/collaborate/
