How can someone go from making people's eyes glaze over when they start a presentation to having the wrapt attention of an audience and a rush for referrals with just a few hours of work? It's all about finding the silver bullet.

My guest Neil Gordon helps speakers and authors become the face of their movement. With years of experience in publishing and a flare for performing arts, he realised that he was able to make a powerful impact with speakers in much less time than it took him to achieve similar results with writers. And so began his professional transformation from a bird of paradise to a chameleon (that will make sense in the episode, I promise).

In this episode:

  • The power and draw of mystery
  • Why being a competent speaker is no longer good enough
  • How to really be memorable
  • How to find your silver bullet
  • What is your public speaking spirit animal?
  • Mastering the first 7 seconds of your talk

and more besides.
