Last night I did a zoom training for a group out of Brazil.
It was one of those where I got flooded afterward with messages and thank you’s about how the training impacted them. In fact, I woke up with about 15 new messages that came in overnight.
As a speaker, it feels great to know that your training made an impact.
So as I sit here in my writing chair sipping my morning coffee, I started thinking about why I’ve been able to become a great trainer. Because the truth is, I’ve never had any formal speaking training.
I have heard a few talks over the years on public speaking and I did spend $10,000 for a one day coaching on closing from the platform but no toastmasters… No public speaking certifications… No national speakers association events or anything like that.
