I am generally very calm and measured but I sometimes deliberately get angry and it seems to make me heard. I do this maybe once or twice a year and only in situations where I am 100% sure that my point is correct.

I have had colleagues a bit like this. You spend two years working with this calm, intelligent, sensible person, so when they finally do get angry, you stop and pay attention.

I think it also works in relationships. A lot of people let things fester for a long time. I think a good blow up from time to time clears the air often. That is if you let it go afterwards.
