57. Speech Breakdown: TEDx Talk by Rory Vaden "How to Multiply Your Time"

Let's get cracking on another episode of The Presentation Boss Podcast - episode fifty-seven! And we're back with another speech breakdown. This TED Talk was recommended either by Kate or by a listener, that slight detail has been forgotten. But it is a topic close to both hosts, especially Kate who is a productivity and efficiency nerd (her words!). We listen to Rory Vaden's talk and pause several times to highlight what he is doing that works in favour of his delivery and a couple things that we feel weren't the best choice. Interestingly, Kate experiences a very different reaction not only to Thomas about this talk, but to how she felt about it the first time she listened many months ago. While the audio is a bit iffy at times, listen out carefully for the pacing and repetition choices displayed in this presentation. What You'll Learn • The importance of respectfully calling out obvious delays to an event's agenda • A tactic of beginning a speech by stating and disagreeing with common assumptions • How to use a story to deliver an important point plus grab at your audiences emotions • The value of a purge or pattern break using humour • Why you might need a visual display, even for simple concepts • How niggled Kate gets when comparing the maths of money to the maths of time!
