The great southern author Eudora Welty said, "All serious
daring starts from within."
Certainly that is the case for anyone who wants to really
blow away an audience. Virtually anyone
can
learn how to
deliver a great presentation. The bigger issue is will
they? Will they be willing to hang themselves out there,
and dare to blow away the audience?
We worked with a lawyer recently who struggled with this
issue. The content of her presentation was excellent but
she was struggling with style. Our coach urged the lawyer
to add more energy, and when she did, she looked and sounded
great. If she would only be willing to do it that way in
front of her clients, she would have blown then away. And
she saw it. “It does look great,” she said, looking at her
videotape.
But the lawyer was resistant. “I don’t know if I can
present that way,” she said. “I mean, most lawyers don’t do
it that way.”
She saw that she could be great. But that would mean
standing out from the crowd. She wasn’t sure if she could
make that step.
At Speechworks, we can help you learn to be great. We can
even take you the brink of greatness. But ultimately, you
must dare to be great. And that daring, as Ms. Welty
points out, comes from within.
