Building Authority, Super Credibility, and Expert Status Through Public Speaking With Joel Weldon: [PODCAST 88]

How much bigger of an impact would you have if you had greater authority?

Authority is what gives you instant credibility and status in the eyes of those you want to influence. And don’t misunderstand, this is not the authority that comes with a position or a title. You need the authority that comes from knowing something that will benefit those you are connecting with and speaking to (also known as your audience).

Today you’re going to hear from Genius Network Member and speaking coach, Joel Weldon. Joel is the Ultimate Speaking Coach and an amazing source of inspiration and wisdom when it comes to building authority, influence, and expert status with public speaking. In his 42+ year career, Joel has gone from being a shy carpenter to a full-time professional speaker – having done over 3,000 paid presentations and coaching and critiquing over 10,000 speakers.
