Star communicators: a master class
Leader: Russell Amerasekara of Jester Communications
Three key points
- The summary framework for good communication: Engage (intrigue or challenge), inform, then call to action – all done from a position of authenticity and conviction
- The power of body language, the impact of mirroring, and the power of the pause.
- Learned skills, behaviours and techniques can convey messages and lead people to action.
Best bits
- The clips of ’star communicators’ – from the charming, charismatic presence of Robbie Williams creating intimacy with an audience of 60,000 at Knebworth, to the Dalai Lama to Mohammad Ali – drew out the skills, behaviours and techniques that allow them to convey their messages powerfully and lead people to action.
- The small working group of 20 CWNers working through this excellent breakfast session
