Pathos is known as a strong component of successful persuasion. Pathos is also when you appeal to the listeners’ emotions. Verbal communication is the exchange of meanings by the use of the written or spoken symbols of a language. Non verbal communication is includes any symbolic behavior that is either intentionally or unintentionally sent.

Credibility is the most important part of the group’s discussion last week. The members of the team agreed that credible sources must have a backup make a valid argument otherwise an argument or claims could become an opinion or an invalid argument.

Once the information has been put out to the public, the receiver or audience could verify the information to ensure that it comes from credible and reliable information.

The first step is confidence. When combining self confidence with fast talking, your audience will struggle in finding flaws in your argument and will be forced to agree with you.
