Speaking Your Brand: Public Speaking Tips and Strategies

What Most Speakers Miss: 3 Secrets to Insightful and Inspirational Presentations


Listen Later

Have you ever walked away from a presentation thinking, “That was… fine,” but not truly moved, inspired, or motivated?

Here’s the truth: Most presenters mean well - they want to share valuable information - but they miss what truly makes a talk stick with the audience.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a recent presentation I gave at a local AI meetup that got amazing feedback - not because I taught all the things, but because I did these 3 key things instead.

You’ll learn:

  • What made this AI-focused talk both insightful and inspiring to a room full of people at all levels of tech

  • Why having a clear structure (yes, our Signature Talk Canvas!) is non-negotiable

  • How to go beyond teaching and step into thought leadership by showing your audience what’s possible

  • The powerful “aha” moment a friend shared with me after my talk - and why it matters for your delivery

  • How I use AI workflows and agents in my business, from podcast production to lead nurturing

Whether you're speaking to clients, colleagues, or on a stage, these 3 secrets will help you create the kind of talk that resonates and gets you invited back.
