Communications Insight For More Inspiring Leaders An Observation by Ken Robinson

An Observation by Ken Robinson

Love My Job
 
 
"When you're doing something you love, an hour feels like five minutes. When you're doing something you hate, five minutes feels like an hour."

I've long loved this observation by the late Ken Robinson.

This morning at 6am UK time, I ran a lunchtime (!) session for 80+ professionals working for an international law firm in the Asia-Pacific.

We had folk dialling in from Hong Kong, Sydney, Singapore and more. Loved it.

Session length: 75 minutes.

Felt like 5.

If that.

When does 1hr+ feel like 5 mins for you?

In 2018, Simon coached me with public speaking, style, helped write my pitch, and gave me every imaginable tip to manage my nerves, present with esteem, conviction and win over the audience - with his help I went on to pitch to 3,000 people and win the World Social Enterprise competition. I cannot recommend him more highly to any CEO or senior executive looking to perfect their public speaking and win over an audience.
