It's not just being able to communicate, you need to adopt a persona.

As a more experienced engineer that is actually extremely passionate about my work, the difference in the way I'm treated when I adopt a calm, cool persona speaking with a calm voice vs being excited, passionate, and appearing happy is significant.

I can communicate the same idea effectively using both personas but being detached, calm and cool just seems to garner respect more easily.

Can you elaborate?

I get much better results when trying to convince people of something when I speak in the generic podcaster voice.
