He pinpoints the often-overlooked secrets to success — the sites and circumstances; the phrasing, pacing, and cadences; the tricks great speakers use to forge emotional bonds with their audiences. When you explore a speech with Richard, it's like stumbling into a new world, filled with surprises, unexpected insights — and fun."
