How to Give a Speech like Steve Jobs - Public Speaking Video Lecture -

so what can we learn from the speaking
style of Steve Jobs first of all who was
Steve Jobs he was a tech guy he was head
of a big tech company he gave technical
speeches but what does that mean most
people when they say they give technical
speeches what they mean is they turn
their back to you they point to a really
complicated graph with 29 different
bullet points that's what people think
they're doing when they're giving
so-called technical speeches well Steve
Jobs gave technical speeches too but he
did it in a way that actually worked
when he used a slide he used an image if
he wanted to talk about and I found he
showed a picture of an iPhone he didn't
put up text and 89 different bullet
points of the specs when he wanted to
demonstrate the thinness of one of his
new laptop computers he didn't put up a
bullet point slide that said thinness
0.18 inches that's not what he did he
had someone bring out an envelope and he
simply pulled this new laptop out of an
envelope to dramatize how thin it was he
realizes even though he's got the best
technology in the world often there's
nothing better than a simple prop of a
10 set envelope that made his point the
other thing he did is he rehearsed a
great deal people who worked with him
say he would obsess over his major
presentations for weeks he would
rehearse for days because he understood
how important this was it's not
something you just dash off at the last
minute because there's no time if you're
the CEO there's nothing more important
than giving a great presentation to
galvanize people's attention to motivate
them to want your product to use your
product and that's why he was very
careful to walk around the stage to be
conversational to demonstrate and when
he used images that he projected it
wasn't about text it was about one idea
at a
I'm one visual at a time that's what
made Steve Jobs an effective
communicator
