@deanleakcoach: Can you spot why this story is so powerful? (It's probably not what you think!). So often we just jump into the content of the conversation before priming. Priming increases the probability that it's going to be received. My 3 P's model for communication is: 1. Preparation 2. Priming 3. Permission You notice in the way that he communicates this story, he primes the message and, through the disclaimer, asks for permission without even asking for it. Think connection before content. Just ten to twelve seconds can be enough to increase that cushion for the value of your message to be heard. #storytelling #arsenal #communication #difficultconversation

Using humour and self-deprecation before giving an opinion is highly effective in then having people listen closely.

I'm a sound engineer and was mixing this live 😂 everyone in the gallery was memorised by him, it was truly inspiring to sit and listen to him speaking

Paddy :

Smart, high iq and humble.

CharlieLondonUK :

He also implied he was letting them into secret, which can be very powerful

Maria Garcia :

That’s what a good education does for you combined with multiple experiences of carefully observing people’s responses/reactions to a variety of situations.

elaine5840 :

He’s one smart guy 🤩

nicole (tofana's version) :

He includes the others, he uses self-deprecating humour, he maintains eye-contact. He's about connecting, not about himself

John Joe302 :

does sometimes when you do that self deprecating "I'm not the expert" also set you up to not be listened to?

Birgisson :

Wonderful. Such a shame he was cut off.

GenFroHo :

Twice in the ‘disclaimer’ he looks direct to camera as well as each person on the couch. He’s directly speaking to everyone watching. It’s a really clever way to make his message appeal to everyone, not just those in the studio 👌🏼

Nick French- Ceniril Coaching :

The clever part, building on what you’ve said, is that after his disclaimer, he didn’t try to assume the position of sporting expert (which can often happen). His explanation was rooted in his own experience, which he then related perfectly to the sporting situation.
