Day 1 - Eye contact: Advocacy is not an exercise in projecting your voice whilst keeping your eyes firmly buried in your computer or notes.
You should control your notes, not the other way round.
Watching your judge, witness, listener is essential

I believe that the time has come to require complete transparency in political party funding, including the real identity of funders.
There should be NO overseas funding permitted from any source and there should be a maximum funding amount
Breach of these rules should be a criminal offence

ACTIVE LISTENING - don’t just hear what people are saying. Listen to the words they use (or don’t use), how they say what they are saying and what they avoid saying. Don’t be so wound up in what YOU want to say next that you miss what they are saying NOW

SILENCE- can be the most powerful tool in the advocacy arsenal. If you get a devastating answer, let it sink in before the next question. If the witness is struggling to make up an answer, pause & let the sound of their brain working overtime fill the room

CASE THEORY - essential for assessing relevance, target-setting and knowing where to fight & where to yield. It is also a vital tool to assist in client care - helping them to understand strategic decisions they need to make or endorse.
