Live Like a Leader with John Bates

Annie Särnblad is a preeminent global speaker and expert in reading facial expressions. She is Certified in the Facial Action Coding System “FACS” and can numerically code the 10,000 muscle combinations in human expression. She has developed her own easy-to-absorb teaching techniques based on the knowledge she accumulated living in 9 countries and studying 8 languages through immersion. Annie has a Master’s in Cultural Anthropology, and has lived across Asia, Europe, and the Americas, and is currently living in Boston. Annie raised her three children as human lie detectors - by taking them out into Singapore on a daily basis and live narrating human's faces in real-time in Swedish. Over almost ten years, she and her children simplified the identifiers and locations of each emotion on the face down to the briefest flicker of muscle movement.

Microexpressions are the subconscious “leakage” of emotion that makes “unspoken” feelings visible. They are universal to our species and not dependent on culture. In a negotiation, reading microexpressions allows us to gain insight into the other person’s position that is invisible to most people. This ability to identify the subtle changes in the mood of the person we are talking to allows us to observe how a conversation is going - as it is happening - so that we can instantly adjust our behavior and improve the negotiation outcome. Reading and responding well to another person’s needs and wants greatly influences their desire to close a deal on both a conscious and subconscious level.

Julian is a sound and communication expert whose mission is to help people and organizations to listen better and create healthier and more effective sound, including speaking. He is  the author of the books How to be Heard and Sound Business.

Julian’s five TED talks have been watched more than 100 million times. 'How to speak so that people want to listen' is in the top 10 TED talks of all time. Julian is regularly featured in the world’s media and has guested on dozens of leading global podcasts.

In 2003 Julian founded The Sound Agency – an audio branding company that asks and answers the question “how does your brand sound?”and has recently launched Moodsonic®, a range of biophilic soundscapes to enhance well-being and productivity in workspaces. TSA's award-winning work has made headlines internationally.

Julian’s love of sound stems from his early experience as a musician. He was a drummer for indie bands The Transmitters, Fish Turned Human and Missing Presumed Dead and recorded vinyl and two 1981 John Peel Sessions.

Before The Sound Agency, Julian spent 20 years working in advertising and magazine publishing. He founded, grew, and sold the contract (custom) publishing agency TPD.

Julian lives in beautiful Orkney with his fiancée, multiple world champion martial artist, Jane Majendie, and their daughter.

Julian's vision: "We teach our children how to read and write, but not how to speak and listen. Conscious listening is rare, and never has it been more needed in the world; at the same time, millions miss out on the potential of the amazing instrument we all play – the human voice – and struggle to speak powerfully. My vision is to transform the world by inspiring people to listen consciously and speak powerfully."

[And I say, "Hear, hear, Brother!"]

Marilee is the author of the internationally bestselling book Change Your Questions, Change Your Life as well as The Art of the Question and Teaching that Changes Lives.

Marilee remembers this experience as if it was yesterday. She was leaving the psychologist’s office, after hours of testing for ADD, when the doctor patted her on the shoulder and said in a consoling voice, “Don’t expect too much of yourself.”

What?!

That was years before she published her first book, a cognitive-behavioral psychology textbook entitled The Art of the Question, which one reviewer hailed as the “book of the decade” in the field of psychology.

Marilee is driven by an unrelenting passion for learning and making a difference with what she learns. She credits this passion for learning as having been her saving grace and the basis for all she has developed. Her work is based on insights into the profound power of inquiry and mindsets in shaping our lives, our relationships, our results, and our futures. This work is making a global impact on individuals, executives, organizations, and teams. Marilee is happiest when people say things like: “Your work is so practical and it has changed my life—or my company, or my leadership, or my team, or even my marriage—Thank you!"

Grant Baldwin always enjoyed speaking and helping other people. So much so that he actually went to Bible college and became a youth pastor. He did that for a little while but eventually felt like there was something else he should be doing. While his wife was five months pregnant with their first daughter, he quit his job with no real plan for what he wanted to do with his life.

He felt like he was having a quarter-life crisis.

Grant spent months reading, exploring, and trying to figure out what he was put on this planet to do. He knew some of the things he was good at, and he knew what he enjoyed doing, but he was never sure how it all translated into a career. After several months, Grant decided to start a career as a speaker.

He worked hard and hustled to build his business and get booked to speak.

In the last several years, Grant has been fortunate to speak to audiences all over the country. He has spoken at hundreds of events and has given literally thousands of presentations at conferences, assemblies, conventions, and other events. He has spoken to audiences of just a handful to arenas filled with 13,000 people.
