Speak Clear Client Robyn Stratton-Berkessel gives a wonderful speech here on the power of positivity. I think what Robyn does better than most presenters is pacing. Notice the way she breathes at the ends of her thoughts, and deliberately controls the tempo of her speech. She is not in a rush. Notice how her gestures accentuate her ideas. She moves in a way that is firm and bold, not muddy and small.

In addition, Robyn’s speech is filled with vivid anecdotes (my favorite is the story she tells about the 90 year old cab driver). Each story relates to her main premise, the power of playful inquiry.

Well done Robyn!
