Hi! Have you seen the amazon book Public Speaking for Frankenstein ? I got some amazing tips from it and could then gave a stand up talk with no stage fright.
A large part of his appeal is his humility and his lack of seeming sophistication - and that's part of what i tell my students to focus on, namely, making yourself likable.
he's an ok speaker. but actually I think Sergey is better. Eric has more of a presence in terms of performance but Sergey is just helplessly sober with no kind or charisma. its much better imo. Larry is just plain ol' anti social.
@IndivisiblePrinciple i agree with you. the purpose of public speaking is to empower people to do more inspire motivate and cause people to do better u see. so there's a reason behind why he speaks this way. all this charisma and stuff are things which are personality based not character based. skill based i call it normally. so focus on developing your mind your character and you can help others realize that everyone can achieve more. and you don't need a script.
Wow, what a revealing to his past. Now he's extremely good at public speaking. He's one of those people who are really enjoyable and mind-boggling to listen to. Clearly one of my heroes.
Look at 5:2009-CV-05151 I trust Google to violate copyrights and privacy. I have sued them in the Western District of AR US Federal court. They asked that my suit be dismissed, but that will be thrown out soon. They own this site and get to remove this comment and probably should. A jury will get to watch this video to consider how much they need to pay to be punitive. My lawyer is taking a 100% commission because I am acting Pro Se and think contingency fees should be illegal.
Thanks for sharing. Great video in terms of very encouraging to many nerdy tech ppl including me who find public speaking always a headache and awkward to do. I watched some of his most recent vids and he definitely made huge huge progress and improvement over his presenting skills. He is for sure not THE best speaker, but he always captures the key points and he uses examples a lot which made his talks interesting, and inspiring.
This is such a valuable lesson - it is obvious Eric had a tremendous work ethic to improve ALL aspects of himself - a trait that would eventually allow him to lead the most creative, intelligent, successful company in the world. Compare his story to someone like Steve Ballmer.
Yes, socially awkward but at the time this video was produced I'd say that he had progressed rather well. The problem with Eric is that he has an elite globalist mentality which was embedded into his brain by his parents and their pro NWO friends from a very early age. I wonder if anyone knows or understands the real motivations behind his acquisition of YouTube:) He made a profit on this deal before he actual consumated it. So, where did that profit come from?Give ya three guesses.
im very happy to have stumbled upon this video. im a huge eric schmidt fanboy, and its nice seeing this old video of him knowing that he is now CEO of google, and a great public speaker!
i also learned a few things about public speaking!
This is not a public speaking video! Maybe the title needs to be changed! Who is he? Is the the guy at Google? Should be an old video. When i search for Eric Schmidt I obtain an older gentleman on screen!
Common man...this is nowhere close to the actual Public Speaking.This is more like Public Squeaking...Just because you are successful doesn't make you a good public speaker/orator/presenter. Take a break!
hahahhaha yeah may be ....nah...I just think he'll make anything of himself, I dont see any potential there....mark my words, he'll never make it pass senior management
I think we should take into account that this is an old video. You can see his new speeches in the Google channel. He is a good example that you can turn a weakness into a strength. It's hard to believe he spoke that bad. But hey guys! We are all bad at something and we need the same courage to improve ourselves.
It turns out this guy is now the CEO of google, he still seems a little nervous and overdoes his body language when he delivers speeches, but looks a little more confident
Several individuals had their hands up during this segment of the video (you just couldn't see them all). Eric was working on improving his eye communication with the audience. The raised hands are an accountability measure. The object of the exercise is the get the hands down by extended eye contact for 5 seconds with each person who has their hand raised.
Perhaps to give Schmidt some practice with a classic public speaking distraction or when utilized well, a potential energizer. If so, I wonder if he had the option to "call on her" and opted not to.
It's incredible how many of Eric's mannerisms are still there today, such as clasping his hands, pointing to the questioner, nodding his head, etc. Thanks for posting this... makes me feel anyone can start from quite humble beginnings (though General Manager at Sun is quite an accomplishment already), and go even further than your wildest dreams.
If you want to listen to an incredibly engaging public speaker, look up Christopher Hitchens.
