Connect Quickly with a Challenging Audience

Any audience is challenging if they don’t feel connected to you. A speaker must understand her audience’s world.

Key ideas:

  • Meet people where they live. Listen to their world.
  • Your mind is a self-correcting system, a self-clearing system.
  • People pick up where you’re coming from. The feeling of challenge is coming from you.

A Jamie’s experience with a challenging audience

Jamie Smart keynoted a strategy workshop for the council of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. Jamie wrote about this experience in Chapter 16 of his book RESULTS: Think Less, Achieve More. In this audio recording, you can hear the entire keynote speech for yourself, and discover the ‘strategy equation’ used by many of the world’s greatest strategists (including Napoleon, Steve Jobs, Microsoft and Netflix).
