Monotone

The great Roman orator, Cicero, said that a mediocre presentation with a dynamic delivery is more effective than the most scholarly presentation with a mediocre delivery. 

You can have the greatest voice in the world, but if you speak with little or no expression, then you are boring.  And, nothing puts a listener to sleep faster than a monotone delivery.

Color refers to the life, the animation, the emotion one expresses in speaking.  While many people are very colorful in conversation, at the lectern or on the podium, the color often drains from their voice, their facial expression, their body language.

Of course there are others who speak in a montone in all situations.  Only when these people see and hear themselves on video, allowing their expression to come through, can they appreciate that speaking with color, with life, actually looks and sounds more natural than their former monotone, lackluster delivery. 

Once again that saying comes to mind, "It's not what you say but how you say it!"
