Who has not fantasized about being a professional public speaker? Can you imagine how great it would be to fly to exotic locations and get paid large sums of money for a one-hour motivational talk?

Before you quit your day job, Nick Morgan, Harvard-trained communication expert, founder of Public Words and author of Trust Me and Give Your Speech Change the World has some hard-won advice on both creating quality speeches and making it in the hyper-competitive world of professional speaking.

In this podcast conversation, we discuss:

  • The two conversations you have to manage in every presentation
  • The real source of natural and powerful body language (otherwise known as “no, you don’t have to flail your arms on cue.”)
  • The inside scoop on what it takes to succeed as a public speaker. Easy money in exotic locations is unfortunately not part of the reality. 🙂
