Creating compelling communicators.

Delivering a great speech is not as daunting as you might think. Especially when you follow this simple acronym developed by communications expert Karen Friedman.
The taxi driver who took me to the airport was retired, perhaps pushing 80. So when he told me he had three jobs and I inquired why, he said: “Purpose.” He said “I love to work.” Every day I wake up with a purpose, he explained. For him, that’s driving to the airport or helping with luggage at the airport carousels. Purpose.
Each and every one of us has a purpose. Perhaps it’s caring for an aging parent, a child or a spouse. Perhaps it’s the work we do. Maybe it’s a charity we support. For a friend of mine who was laid off, it actually took breast cancer to bring purpose back to her life.
Thought breast cancer is hardly a coveted purpose, after being laid off years earlier, my friend lost energy and self-esteem. She checked out of many daily activities and struggled to get out of bed every day. She had no purpose. [Read more…] about What’s your purpose? You may not know it, but you have one
