“When big, serious, thoughtful things must be said, then big, serious, thoughtful speeches must be given.

Carmine Gallo is the bestselling author of, amongst others, Talk Like TED and The Storyteller’s Secret: From TED Speakers to Business Legends. In his recent post for Forbes.com he analysed Barack Obama’s speech, and showed how the body language and rhetorical tricks that Obama is the master of, can be deployed by all of us to make our next speech instantly more memorable – and powerful.
