Having always loved performance in some way, shape or form, John Ball developed a passion for public speaking years ago. On his speaking and storytelling journey, John discovered that there are lots of ways that we are influenced and persuaded often without our knowledge and through his own podcast and trainings, John now shows people how this happens and how people can in turn use persuasion and influence ethically.

KEY TAKEAWAY

“I think one thing that I feel is most important in life is to not just keep learning but to keep putting the stuff into practice because it was reportedly Lao Tzu who said to know or not to do is to not truly know. So whatever you learn, aim to put it into practice as well. Do something with it otherwise it's just learning for the sake of learning.”
