Poor rhetoric but inspiring presentations - what you can learn from Elon Musk

Elon Musk interrupts himself, takes wrong breaks and gets lost in details - but his presentations are still inspiring.

This is the secret behind it.

For a long time, Amazon boss Jeff Bezos was considered the richest person in the world.

Now he has been overtaken by Tesla boss Elon Musk *.

The entrepreneur should be an

impressive boss

, as a former Tesla employee says, but he also likes to make his applicants sweat with difficult questions.

With his innovative, sometimes

strange visions of the future

, Musk often makes a name for himself.

Be it the colonization of Mars or the development of a hyperloop - Musk is a

visionary

, that is undisputed.

In his inspiring presentations, he talks about his ideas, introduces innovations and

regularly

inspires

his viewers

.

They hang on his lips and make big eyes - but Musk is not a great speaker.

He gets tangled up, takes artistic breaks in the wrong places, gets lost in abstract details and

is known for his extremely

flat jokes

.

The only question that arises is:

then why are his presentations so good?

Exciting presentations: Elon Musk is authentic

The many textbook-like aspects that make a good speaker and which Elon Musk so consistently ignores in his presentations, he makes up for with just one success factor:

he is authentic

.

That may not sound like much, but it makes his presentations and appearances a complete success.

There is an

interesting correlation

behind this

: Musk is so convinced of his ideas and believes in his visions with such passion that rhetorical errors

creep in naturally

.

In other words, it doesn't matter whether he is theoretically a good speaker or not - his enthusiasm forbids him from making a rhetorically impeccable appearance.

Because he focuses exclusively on what he wants to communicate to his audience.

The rhetoric simply becomes a minor matter

.

And that is precisely what makes him so authentic, his enthusiasm is electrifying and contagious.

employer can order a mask in the job.

You can learn a lot from Elon Musk

The fact that Elon Musk can shine less with rhetoric and much more with authenticity in his presentations holds

great learning potential

.

Many people worry that they are technically not great speakers and still have to give presentations themselves over and over again.

The world of work in particular has many such tasks in store.

Now it is not exactly easy to create an authentic appearance out of nowhere, but: The

Muskian trick

is a very

helpful support

on the way there.

If you can be enthusiastic about the topic you are supposed to present, the appearance will also be successful.

Because the rhetorical shortcomings literally fade in an

electrifying mood
