Presidential Debate Teaches Us About Ability, Effort And Presenting Skills

Developing the Next Generation of Rainmakers Presidential Debate Teaches Us about Ability, Effort and Presenting Skills In 1996, I taped a Clinton-Dole debate. I didn’t tape it to make up my mind on the candidates. Instead, I taped it to learn more about persuasion. I no longer have the tape, but I remember being in awe of President Clinton and actually feeling sorry for Senator Dole. Were you one of the 58 million Americans who watched the debate Wednesday night? Regardless of your political party or who you want to be the next President, there was a great deal to learn about client development and presentation skills from watching the debate and the analysis that has been reported since. As you know, on Wednesday morning I posted: Presidential Debates, “Zingers” and Client Development. I suggested that the analysts and pundits would spend more time on debate performance and style than on substance. I was right, it has been hard to find any reports or analysis on substance, but plenty has been written and reported on the differences between the candidates on: While there were no “zingers,” in the debate, because the analysis focused on debate performance, there was wide agreement in the outcome. Given that the CNN poll of likely voters who actually watched the debate found that 67% concluded Romney had won, there was little to discuss other than why. (Did you see where Al Gore blamed it on the altitude in Denver?) Yesterday, I gave a presentation on starting right for career success to 110 Baylor Law School students. Driving to Waco and back took two hours each way. Other than stopping in West, Texas at the Czech Bakery  for  kolaches, it was a really boring drive. I listened to the three news networks on my satellite radio. When a network went to commercial or to covering the “real” news, I switched channels. Since it was so clear that Governor Romney did extremely well and President Obama did not, the discussion focused on why the President did so poorly and looked unprepared. Do a Google search for the last 24 hours and you will find many very interesting perspectives. To show how social media has changed things, one of the top sites in my Google search was a US News post:  15 Tweets That Explain Why Obama Lost the First Debate. I recently wrote: Client Development: Change what you think it takes to succeed  and  Lawyers: Here Are Two “Must Have” Presentation Skills. Neither blog post had anything to do with the debate and I was not thinking about it when I wrote them. But,  what I wrote about effort, preparation and the must have presentation skills demonstrate, at least in part, why Governor Romney did so well and President Obama did so poorly. In one paragraph, political analyst, Jeff Greenfield, made both of my points:  After the debate debacle for Obama, we’ll find out if we have a race. He said: Yes, it wasn’t the best atmospherics for Obama to look down, purse his lips, appear distracted, while Romney was attentive, engaged, relaxed. But this was much more than atmospherics. This was about one candidate who came with a frame for the evening, and who was prepared to engage on every question; and another who, perhaps because of his documented faith in his own abilities, felt he could wing it with snatches of familiar verbiage. In my presentation skills post, I wrote about the importance of body language in public speaking. Greenfield accurately described the President’s body language. Interestingly, like the Nixon-Kennedy debate, when I could only listen to the debate soundbites on Satellite radio, it seemed much different than when I saw the very same soundbite. In my change what you think post, I argued that  effort frequently trumps ability.    As Greenfield points out, the President may have thought he could wing it because of his belief in his ability. How many times do you suppose President Obama has been told that he is  a “gifted” speaker? How many times do you suppose Mitt Romney has been told that he needs to “better connect” with the audience? I wish, I could see a recording of the Obama debate preparation and compare it to the Romney debate preparation. At the very least, based on what we all saw Wednesday night, Romney likely made a greater and more focused effort to prepare. When a speaker is well prepared, his body language generally exudes the confidence he feels. I want to restate my two main points from the blog posts:     I practiced law for 37 years developing a national construction law practice representing some of the top highway and transportation construction contractors in the US.

Alexander Lyman Holley

Alexander Lyman Holley Alexander Lyman Holley Alexander Lyman Holley In the event that Britains Sir Henry Bessemer was the dad of the steel business, at that point Alexander Lyman Holley was the central planner and architect of its ascent in the U.S. During his brief however surprisingly gainful profession, Holley brought Bessemers progressive steel fabricating procedure to the states, enhanced it, and assumed a basic job in building twelve of the countries most significant Bessemer steel works. Holley was conceived in 1832 to a noticeable Connecticut family with a long history in the iron business. His dad, a previous Connecticut senator, claimed a cutlery processing plant where Holley picked up his first introduction to modern scale producing hardware. Despite the fact that the familys riches and associations (and his own hearty keenness) situated him for a recognized profession in law or legislative issues, Holley was fixated on hardware and the endless test of making things work better. While examining science and building at Brown University in Providence, RI, Holley got useful involvement with train building and plan at a few nearby organizations. While still in school he distributed and licensed his first creation, a steam-motor cut-off valve. His enthusiasm for railroad innovation prompted a dear companionship with Zerah Colburn, a conspicuous rail designer and creator. Holley and Colburn voyaged Europe via train, recording the further developed condition of that mainlands rail frameworks for the benefit of top U.S. railroad administrators. Their treatises regarding the matter motivated interest in foundation overhauls back home. Holleys own abstract advantages came to fruition now, as he started a productive side vocation as a columnist, specialized artist, and distributer of diaries on railroad advancements. He composed various reference works, specialized books, and articles for a wide scope of claim to fame and general intrigue distributions, including the New York Times, where he served for a long time as a specialized journalist. On his movements, Holley educated of Bessemers new steel-production process, in which compacted air was blown over liquid crude iron to evacuate polluting influences, making great steel far less lavishly than customary strategies. Specialized issues and an absence of logical comprehension of the basic metallurgical procedures blocked the strategies wide acknowledgment in Britain, yet Holleys blade production line foundation and Ivy League preparing empowered him to see the energizing capability of the Bessemer procedure. In 1863, Holley bought the rights to bring the Bessemer procedure to the U.S. Ten of his 15 lifetime licenses were for enhancements in the process that adjusted it for conditions in the U.S. Before long, colossal Bessemer steel works came to fruition in urban areas like Troy, NY, and Harrisburg, PA. These and twelve other steel towns over the modern east took care of the countries developing want modest, top notch Bessemer steel. Holleys plants produced steel for the scaffolds, railroads, high rises, and war vessels that would make the U.S. the most grounded monetary force on the planet. Similarly as with his news-casting, Holleys proficient undertakings were intended for bringing individuals of various foundations together around key points in science and designing. His enthusiasm for research-driven advancement in the act of designing drove him to assume a fundamental job in the establishing of the countries most significant expert associations focused on training, normalization, and disciplinary greatness. He was viewed as a main soul in the establishing of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), and he led the principal meeting of its establishing individuals in 1880. His endeavors assisted with encircling the scholarly boundaries of the mechanical designing calling and of the ASME association itself. He assumed comparable jobs in the production of the Institute of Mining, Metallurgical and Petroleum Engineers (AIME), and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). The break-neck pace of Holleys work in the end negatively affected his wellbeing. He kicked the bucket from peritonitis in 1882 at age 49. Not exactly 10 years after his passing, the three associations with which he was most firmly connected ASME, ASCE, and AIME united to commission the 12 foot tall bronze and limestone Holley remembrance, which despite everything fills in as a famous gathering spot in Manhattans Washington Square Park. Today, similarly as he did throughout everyday life, Holley keeps on uniting individuals. Michael MacRae is an autonomous author. Holley's factories produced steel for the extensions, railroads, high rises, and war vessels that would make the U.S. the most grounded financial force on the planet.

Why Staying in a Job You Hate May Be Good for You

Why Staying in a Job You Hate May Be Good for You Why Staying in a Job You Hate May Be Good for You Consistently, I disclose to myself I need to be thin.
