So when I held this ungainly fact up against his past behaviour -- of ignoring my messages -- it seemed to me these combined actions carried a message of their own, a message I was not happy to get. However, it was one thing for me to be unhappy; it was another to act on it. But the voice that spoke, just as I was about to cave and rent him the property anyway, said this: You are making a bad business decision. Be bold. And so I was. I spoke. I said no.

With no prospects for the future, is it any wonder that so many college grads feel lost. This isn't the way it was supposed to be. Higher education was supposed to be the best investment one could make to guarantee a solid future. Any wonder that they feel cheated?

Getting invited to make a presentation at a TED conference is a big deal. Famous people will be in the audience, you'll be videotaped, your speech will live forever and will be viewed by, possibly, millions of people worldwide. Talk about pressure!

Anyone listening to Thum's music for the first time would be skeptical. They'd think he actually used music production software to make his music and trick everyone into thinking he's using his natural voice. But as he demonstrated in a Website video, filmed at the Sydney Opera House in Bennelong Point, Sydney, everything is pure talent with a little help from recording devices. He performs various songs throughout the clip, but the one at the end is a jazz song revealing his full talent.

I don't believe you need to be an extrovert to be a good presenter. Steve Jobs is regarded as one of world's best business presenters without being a hyper-energetic speaker. However, regardless of your starting point, you do need variety in your presentation.

Guilt and shame are not the same thing. Guilt is feeling bad for a certain action, and wanting to take responsibility for it. Shame is feeling bad for being a certain person, and leads to steadfast avoidance of vulnerability. According to Brown, vulnerability and taking risks is the only way to get what we want out of life, and this after she studied the subjects for eight years. If we cannot embrace our vulnerability, learn to take responsibility for our actions, and avoid judging ourselves as people and subjecting ourselves to shame, then we can do anything in our lives.

Even a well framed and messaged presentation delivered in a monotonous and disinterested manner will be poorly received. Executives (and all presenters) have a bubble within which they are comfortable. It has been successful to get them to where they are today. However, I am often asked to help executives with strong technical backgrounds to make the step up to senior positions. This requires coming out of the comfort bubble which means overcoming deeply engrained habits. Common habits include being too softly-spoken, projecting a constant (often low) stream of energy and little variety in voice and energy throughout a presentation.
