Recommended: Effective Christian leadership

My first observation was when attended church services and I observed the pastor did not use any props. The pastor was speaking on the power of prayer. The presentation was very informative and useful. I observe a couple of verbal and non-verbal communication during the presentation; he maintained great eye contact with the audience and had great body language. His verbal communication was great as well with remaining calm and focused. The pastor did an excellent job with appropriately demonstrate his topic without props, he talked from the heart and gave examples from his life regarding the power of prayer.
My second observation is from a town hall meeting that was conducted by CEO of Governance, Risk & Compliance for the company I work for.

    After finishing the speech, I realized I had misjudged his capability. His usage of pathos wasn’t clearly positioned but that was the beauty of it. Most might miss it, but even his title had pathos dripping all over it. It made people question whether they had the ability to make others listen to them; hence, making the people attentively listen if they followed the steps he was mentioning. He made everyone fear the thought of not having the potential to make others listen to them which persuaded them to use the tips he mentioned.

    Every religion embodies a plethora of recognized rituals that are significant to its teachings. Customs exclusive to each religion can include acts such as: attending a weekly mass, praying five times a day at specified hours, celebrating the transition from childhood to manhood, along with endless others.

Dhikr, or the remembrance of God, is a ritual based in Islam that does not receive the attention it deserves from mainstream Muslims, and is highly under appreciated for its value (Robson 238).
