Episode 56. From Nothing to Notable with Ryan Avery
How do you use stories to stop being "a" leader and become "the" leader? What's the problem with motivational speakers? And why should you NOT step out of your comfort zone?
Welcome to The Storypowers Podcast, the show about the power of stories, the people who tell them and why you should be doing it too. I’m your host, keynote speaker and storytelling coach, Francisco Mahfuz.
My guest today is Ryan Avery.
Ryan is one of the nicest people you could ever meet, but he’s been making me feel guilty for a decade. In 2012, I joined Toastmasters, and after I delivered a handful of speeches that got raving feedback, I honestly thought I was a rising star in the public speaking world.
And then Ryan, at age 25, became the youngest World Champion of Public Speaking in history, only 8 MONTHS after he joined. Thanks for that, Ryan.
Since that day, Ryan has delivered more than 500+ keynotes in 33 countries around the globe, on his mission to show leaders how to Go From A to THE® in their industry.
You can find him at ryanavery.com.
