Speaking Your Brand: Public Speaking Tips and Strategies 251: This is What Public Speaking Does for You with Carol Cox and Diane Diaz [The Medium is the Message Series]
Did you know that public speaking is one of the fastest ways that you can establish your expertise, credibility, authority, and thought leadership?
Why? Because of the intrinsic benefits being the speaker standing in the front of a room or on a stage conveys, before you’ve even said a word.
This in and of itself is one of the best reasons to be a speaker.
This is the second episode in a new series we’re doing called “The Medium is the Message.”
Each medium/platform we use, whether public speaking, podcasting, video, social media, TV, books, and so on, gives us particular benefits due to the nature of the medium itself.
This also means that each medium wants different things and the content we create for each medium should reflect that.
In this episode, Diane Diaz and I talk about:
- What makes public speaking unique as a medium
- The role you play as a speaker (and the huge benefits that conveys to you)
- Who can speak in public was historically limited to {white} men and the impact that has on women speakers today
- How different types of speeches (business presentations, keynotes, and TED/TEDx talks) dictate different messages/content
- What audiences want from speakers and how they view speakers
- Why public speaking is the fastest way to thought leadership
