  • When asked the secret to life, E. M. Forster said two words, "Only connect."
    Yet many of us don't. It's not that we don't want to; it's that we're not taught to.
    In this interactive TEDx talk, Intrigue Expert Sam Horn shows how to earn the favorable interest and respect of customers, investors and decision-makers by finding out what's important to them .... and focusing on that FIRST.
    Sam Horn, founder of the Intrigue Agency, is on a mission to help people create clear, compelling communications that connect. She works with entrepreneurs and executives from such organizations as Boeing, NASA, Capital One, ASAE, Cisco and EO to design and deliver one-of-a-kind legacy messages that matter. She also serves as a presentation/pitch coach for Springboard Enterprises which has helped startups receive $6.2 billion in funding.
    Sam's books POP!, Tongue Fu! and the upcoming INTRIGUE have been endorsed by Seth Godin, Tony Robbins, Ken Blanchard and featured in New York Times, BusinessWeek, Washington Post, and Fast Company.
    For videos on how to earn interest and connect with anyone, anytime, visit www.intrigueagency.com.
    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    Thank you for your valuable feedback.
    I'm on a mission to show that speaking is not just about giving an excellent presentation. Even if it's well-done, that is still one-way communication.
    It's about creating two-way communication and creating an interactive community where everyone has a chance to connect and contribute their insights and experiences.
    Hope you have a priority project in mind and take notes as you watch this video so you can instantly apply its techniques to create interest, earn respect and win buy-in to your priority projects. Enjoy!

    Her ovation was much deserved, her 'pleasantness' doesn't feel as calculated as most who discuss these topics.. obviously she knows what she's doing and knows her craft (that's why she's teaching it) but at the same time it seems very sincere and easy absorb and learn - Great info, God bless you maam.

    This is exactly what compelled me to invite an acquaintance I met through facebook, and a common interest in a horse ranch, to a movie. Once upon a time, he had a zest for life and excitement, fast cars, and many friends. He is now in a wheelchair from an unfortunate accident and volunteers on a horse ranch that helps individuals with special needs. I invited him not only to expand my circle of friends with a compassionate human being, but to appreciate the experience of a simple thing such as going to a movie being confined to a wheelchair. I believe that people could very easily learn a handful (ha) of signs so that if they encounter a deaf person, they could at least have minimal dialogue and help them feel connected to society. Great talk!
