Steal from
the Greats
You can learn a
ton from great orators. The idea isn’t to imitate their techniques but to
incorporate the tools they use that may work for you. The next step is to make
it your own.
Some speakers use
humor, while others have mastered the art of incorporating stories. I’ve seen
some of my favorites emphasize certain words or phrases to really drive a point
home. Others only move on stage when they have a transitional thought.
But what all
great speakers do is deliver from a place of honesty. They really believe in
what they’re saying.
Passion
is just as contagious as indifference. Audiences know when they’re being duped.
Authenticity is
key.
