I find repetition in the world of entrepreneurship and startups to be a highly negative phenomenon. I often see it during Q&A sessions or question time after presenting a pitch.
It is frequently observed during due diligence phases or in general meetings.
I consider effective communication skills to be one of the most important business management skills, not only for the founder or CEO but also for all leadership positions.
The word "inarticulate" in English means unable to express oneself and is not an insult, but a harsh description for any entrepreneur who fails to convey their ideas to others.
Repetition in the Arabic language can be considered a part of rhetoric, and perhaps this is one of the reasons for the repetitive style in the culture as a whole. However, in the fast-paced world of business management, repetition is an unacceptable style.
The solution is to train oneself not to repeat and to start by focusing on the phenomenon and observing it in others, then noticing it in oneself.
"Repetition teaches..." Do not assume that the other party is stupid or unable to understand what you are saying and therefore needs the same sentence repeated! If you fail to convey an idea in a certain way, look for other methods instead of continuing to repeat.
