Last night I asked the question of club members if they wanted to be adequate, good or great speakers. 99% indicated they wanted to be great speakers. One of the tips I shared with them is that if you want to be a great speaker, you need to listen to and watch other great speakers and try to incorporate what they do into your presentations.
Here’s a list of some of the speakers I have listened to and watched over the years which have helped me with my delivery. Many of these you can find in the library, on YouTube or through Google.com
