What Is Motivational Speaking And How Do You Succeed At It? Part One

I’ve been giving speeches for 18 years now. After hundreds of speeches in front of all kinds of audiences large and small, I made a shift: I stopped focusing on content and started focusing on meaning.

Just last month, I delivered a keynote and a breakout session to a group of HR professionals on storytelling and presentation skills. I didn’t just teach them what to do and how to do it, however. I talked about what it means to “Be Amazing” at the front of the room and in life. I spoke to their yearning to make a difference in the world and to be better people – to go beyond their desire to just give better speeches.
