A good performance is authentic behavior in a manufactured environment.

The better prepared you are, the easier it is to be authentic.
–Michael Port

If you have a high stakes situation, and you need your Powerpoint slides to know what’s coming next, you’re not prepared enough.
–Michael Port

Three questions people ask when listening to a speech:

  1. Will this thing work?
  2. Is this something worth my time?
  3. Is this person able to champion this idea?

The five components of great speeches:

  1. A big idea that is relevant to the listeners
  2. Be very clear on what is being promised in the presentation
  3. Make sure you can demonstrate that you understand the way the world looks to them
  4. Be able to demonstrate the consequences of not adopting the big idea
  5. Work hard to serve the audience
