Peter Hopwood | Mastering virtual speaking and training TED speakers

What's the top goal of most new and aspiring speakers?

Well... other than winning the Toastmasters world championship of public speaking, it's usually something along the lines of giving a TED talk.

My guest on this episode is Peter Hopwood who is a global speaker coach, TEDx Coach, Virtual Speaking & Storytelling Specialist and Media Skills Trainer. It's fair to say he knows a few things about giving a great TED talk and much more besides. We had a great and fun chat which we hope you will also enjoy listening to.

Peter travels the globe (now virtually) helping people define, craft and tell clearer stories with stronger impact. Bringing more value, clarity and engagement to their ideas. He helps executives, entrepreneurs and teams to develop their speaking style in front of a crowd or in a virtual setting, gain investment and persuade with impact.

From Dubai to Amsterdam, Shanghai to Berlin, Peter’s workshops and coaching skills are in high demand across global digital, entrepreneurship and startup scenes.

Equally, as an internationally experienced live events MC, Peter has developed an extensive global portfolio of shaping some of the strongest tech events on the planet. London born, Peter has worked in 32 countries and lived in 7 - now based in Croatia.
