Tips from my coaching session with a financial institution President to prepare for his upcoming speech to 800 people. Body language, tone and pitch are 93% of communication.

We're told to steal from those we admire, but so often, we mimic the wrong things. It's not WHAT someone does but WHY they do it (and why it works for them) which we ought to model in our own creative work and storytelling. Once we find that, we can intentionally master the craft. And this work is about exactly that: intentionality. It's practiced. Until it looks effortless (even if, for a long while, it wasn't).In this episode, Mike Ganino shares a story about his childhood and falling in love with E.T., and his understanding at the young age of 10, that stories make us feel less alone.  Mike is the author of the new book, Make a Scene. He is also a keynote director, working to help others master their stage presence and storytelling, and he draws on his roots in theater and acting to help.Mike and I discuss why intentionality is everything is storytelling, how storytellers are really thought custodians, and how to craft scenes that allow audiences to connect with the emotional core of any story. And be warned: this episode gets very meta.

The goal isn't to get in front of your audience. The goal is to ensure they care. While others agonize over reach, your ability to resonate helps you compete on the influence of your ideas, not the volume of your marketing.With my clients, I help clarify + differentiate their message, craft their thinking and expertise into a distinct premise and IP they own, and develop signature speeches, frameworks, and stories to influence, inspire, and drive results.After making a name for myself as an early advocate for quality and storytelling in content marketing at brands like Google and HubSpot, I've partnered with orgs like Mailchimp, Salesforce, Wistia, and GoDaddy and consulted dozens of authors, entrepreneurs, execs, and creators on their storytelling, messaging, and public speaking.I live in the Boston area with my family as a proud Yankees and Knicks fan (yes, I'm in enemy territory). In the 60 seconds per week I'm not creating stuff for work or making my kids laugh, I like to shoot hoops, sip nice bourbons, cook with my wife, and daydream about telling stories like my storytelling hero, Anthony Bourdain.

If you've been to any number of live events, you've certainly sat through your fair share of ‘blah' presentations and phenomenal ones. I can almost guarantee that the ones that didn't pique your interest or capture your attention were by speakers that had little to no stage presence. For coaches, stage presence is crucial. It doesn't matter if you're presenting on a virtual stage or a live stage. Both require stage presence in order to get the most out of your presentation. The question then lies in how does one exude this stage presence? I share all of that during this episode of The Expert Edge. Make sure you tune in!
