We want all our talks and pitches to be “perfect.” Yet we’ve all had those moments while making presentations or pitches where we made a mistake, forgot what we were going to say, got thrown off by a question or interruption.

Tom Marcoux, the Spoken Word Strategist and Executive Coach teaches people specific tools so one can handle any speaking situation with ease and confidence.

Tom won a special award at the Emmy Awards. Tom produced and directed a feature film that went to the Cannes Film market. He is an international speaker and author of over 50 books, including two required textbooks for MBA students at Sofia University. The San Francisco Examiner has designated Tom as the Personal Branding Instructor, and he has taught effective pitch delivery to Stanford and Silicon Valley entrepreneurs.

In our conversation, Tom speaks about perfectionism and how to present yourself in a way that connects and engages your listeners.

We discussed:

·        When perfectionism isn’t working-use recovery methods, criteria for excellence, and the shift from fear.

·        Connected audiences are forgiving.

·        Giving yourself space during your presentation.

·        Techniques for introverts.

·        Convincing investors to fund you.

·        The power of stories.

Take notes and enjoy the show!
