As a speaker you want to leave a good impression, but do you know how to craft an experience for your audience during your speech? Our guest, Stephen Shapiro, is a master at doing this and he’s here to tell us how on today’s episode of The Speaker Lab.
Stephen began his career with Accenture where he spent 15 years and created a 20,000 person practice around process and innovation. As a result, he was charged with speaking to this group and soon found himself giving over 100 speeches a year. He realized he loved it, and he wanted to do it as his own full-time business.
Also on this episode, Stephen explains how he got his start, how he has built momentum and how he differentiates himself as a speaker through experiential keynotes and two specific ways he uses technology. You’ll hear what those ways are and much more when you join us on episode 179 of The Speaker Lab.
