I was slightly startled when I discovered yesterday that I was sharing a double bill at Monterrey Tech yesterday with Malcolm Gladwell. I have never read Gladwell’s famous books, “The Tipping Point” and “Blink”. And - up until yesterday, I had never seen him speak. But I know he has sold zillions of copies and is a famously good speaker - good enough to fill theatres with paying customers in London.

Usually posts like this promise to reveal the speaking secrets of Steve Jobs, so it's refreshing to see a perspective from the UK and a different speaker.
But, now that I've mentioned Jobs, how about this reference to an analysis of a speech by archrival Steve Ballmer and a useful technique for analyzing your own speeches.
