- ChrisMarshallNY 5y agoI’ve been doing public speaking for many years, and I’ve never gotten particularly good at it. Not my strong suit. My writing is fairly decent, though.
- renewiltord 5y agoSome people have to conform. You've got to wear a tailored suit, you've got to sound slick, you've got to have your message clean and correct. But that's the point. It's because you're not exceptional so you have to meet the standard signals of being bare competent. But you take a generational talent, and he can sound however he sounds because it's obvious he is what he is and just being himself is the best thing he can be. He can suck at all these things but you know he's one of a kind. Or maybe you don't think it. But it doesn't matter. There's enough people who do. And they'll listen.
- sfblah 5y agoI may not agree with all of his ideas, but I find his speaking style just fine. Honestly, I prefer someone who reaches for words but says what he means to say.
- nixarn 5y agoTotally agree. I like his style a lot, it's a normal conversation, he is who he is and it's honest. But every time he speaks someone has to point out how he's not the greatest presenter, even if he presents the most amazing new things.
