Analytical, idealistic people like me wish it weren’t true.
We want the world to be rational.
We want people to be moved by what is right and true. Not by what is showy, pretty and shallow.
Alas, showy sells. It’s a reality you can either leverage – or break yourself against.
Your choice.
And if you’ve ever gone head-to-head with a competitor who earned your scorn for being all sizzle and no steak, you also know that for us good guys and gals to win, we need to learn how to decorate our common sense with a bit of show.
And that’s what Michael Port teaches in his newly released and free ebook called “Heroic Public Speaking – Guide to Making World Saving Speeches.”
World saving speeches?
Well, yeah, there’s some show in that title.
It makes you think of the ancient orators Cicero and Demosthenes. The story goes that when Cicero spoke, people would say “Great speech. Really enjoyed it. Well said.”
But when Demosthenes would speak, people would say “Let’s march!”
Port sees public speaking not as giving a speech, but as a performance.
And that’s the philosophy that lies beneath the 50 tips in this ebook.
