He’s been called “an uncommonly honest author” by the Boston Globe, a “marketing guru” by The Wall Street Journal and a “sales guru” by the Financial Times.
He also the author of six books including the ground-breaking Book Yourself Solid, the New York Times bestseller, The Think Big Manifesto and his smokin’ hot new release, Steal The Show.

In this episode we are Reinventing Public Speaking with none other than Michael Port.
Michael says, “every interaction is a performance, and much of our success hinges on whether we’re able to engage and inspire.”
We’ll learn exactly what that means and bear witness to Michael’s performance prowess in action… LIVE!
1 – Are You Phony? Success Through Performance
2 – FEAR; Critics In The Cheap Seats (Caller Kay)
3 – 5 Components of a Great Speech; Everything We Do And Say Tells The World Something About Us
4 – Sales Conversations; You Can’t Pretend They Are An Ideal Client
As someone who taught traditional presentation skills for years, I can only say, amen. Michael knows his stuff. Great interview, nicely done. The only thing I’d add is that as we move more to webinars and virtual communication with our customers and audience, we need to make sure those same skills of connection and authenticity work in the virtual world as well. You’re a good example of how it can work.
OMG Love the bou lders of information, no nuggets..the 5 steps so clear and focused.. love your comments about FEAR.. I teach Fear is Lack of Information..Stick to the facts, not the emotional belief systems, the b.s…..Stay in the moment, the best way to live.. can’t change the unchangeable past(s) Love the segment on Performance… and Mind Set.. funny I teach people how to get out of their thinky thinky brains and have clear focused thought on purpose… so truth about rejection.. we are taught to waste time looking for validation.. brilliant love this show! Love the no sales sales based on value and worth.. so much…Thank you!
