In this brief YouTube short, Speaker A relays a common client question from several of his coaching clients (Tom Toole, Jamie McMartin, Byron Lazien, Levi Rogers, Stephanie Younger, Dustin) about how to get people to take actions that are objectively right for them, even when they struggle to see the benefit. Speaker B answers by emphasizing that the most effective way to influence an audience is to ask more questions than make statements during seminars. By continuously probing the audience, the speaker either sparks a moment of insight (the "light bulb" turning on) or causes the audience to disengage permanently, underscoring that the power of questioning, not storytelling, is the core tool for a great speaker.

Chapters

I got Tom Toole, Jamie McMartin, Byron Lazien, Levi Rogers, Stephanie Younger, Dustin, like a whole bunch of my clients that I was last night, like texting with on this text group. That was the question they all— they wanted to ask you. Like, how do you get people to do stuff that you know is right for them, but they just— they struggle to see it?
If you ask enough questions, and you know this, in my seminars I ask more questions than I do make statements. And if I keep asking questions of the audience, the light bulb is going to either go on or they're going to turn it off permanently and then go away and not come back. So the key to, I think, of being a great speaker is not the stories you tell and the examples you give. The key to being a great speaker is the questions you ask.
