How well does your audience really know you? Do you ‘let them in,’ or do you remain on your professional speaker pedestal on a stage they can never reach?

Vinh Giang is one of the most successful speakers in the world today and works incredibly hard on his craft. But what I admire the most about his work on stage is how he humanizes himself immediately. Believe it or not, ‘being human’ on stage is more challenging than you might think and sometimes it’s about not only sharing your own stories on stage but helping the audience to find their own stories too.

Vinh Giang began his stage career as a very successful magician. Five years ago, he turned to keynote speaking and it wasn’t long before he catapulted to the top of the industry. In this episode of Standing Ovation, you’ll hear one of Vinh’s signature stories about how he became a magician and his family’s reaction to that decision.
