Skills & Management, Public Speaking

TEDx Talk and Keynote Speaker for Thiel Foundation Public speaking is intimidating but there's a few things you can do to genuinely look forward to it.

If you are seeking help with public speaking and presenting, then you are seeking help with persuading and captivating audiences. The last thing you need are a bunch of paint by numbers steps to take for being a great public speaker. You need a solid understanding of your topic and how best to persuade the people to whom you are speaking. Once you have those under your belt, then you can enhance your delivery. Overcoming your fear of speaking by making yourself memorize a bunch of rules and steps is only going to make you do a crappier job than you feared in the first place. I've coached CEOs, VPs of Sales, MBA students, politicians, and hundreds more in how to effectively deliver speeches and presentations. From writing tips to understanding your audience and their motivations, I can help prep you for the real world of public speaking. Forget the rules and get on track. Your audience doesn't care whether you are imagining them naked or you put your hands in your pockets. They are there for you to persuade and they are there to listen. If you give them something even halfway intriguing and interesting for their life and their needs and remember that it is all about them and not you, then you can have success. We will review your topic, anything you've written and if you have a deck we can revamp that too. We'll analyze together and understand your goals and we'll structure a speech or presentation that will sell whatever it is you need to sell whether it be an actual sale of services or goods, yourself, an idea, a project, or anything else, we will make you a persuading machine that is confident in yourself and your knowledge. After that, the speech itself is a piece of cake. After we structure and write what you will cover, I will teach you how to prepare without memorizing anything. We will practice and rehearse and at the end of it all, you will be a confident, strong, and persuasive speaker ready to deliver on what you wanted from your speech. Get in touch and I'll help you accomplish your goals. Thanks!
