People in the comments on this video are absolutely bizarre. She's no accomplished orator like Steve Jobs or King, but that's what makes it so great. She's talking about a major and original insight about how a powerful story is constructed, and literally demonstrating it with examples and through her presentation itself. It's effective both as a demonstration, instruction, and a moving story about overcoming one's own limitations of conveying an original idea.
This is, for me, one of the nicest TED videos. It is simple, honest and says really interesting and motivating things for any kind of person (since the poorest until the richest). I just feel recharged and inspired by these simple but deep words. Thank you Mrs. Nancy Duarte.
Oh my goodness, what a GREAT talk....I've seen many Ted Talks but this is by far one of my favorites, she's captivating and engaging from the beginning to the end...LOVE IT. Thanks Nancy Duarte...BRAVO!!!!
She is a good speaker because she is completely connecting with the audience and that is the key to interact audience and attract audience to your content .this is an inspiring video for me.
Call me a romantic, an idealist, an old hippie, whatever, but I still love people who talk about changing the world. OK, perhaps we've gotten a bit jaded after hearing so many people with big dreams of La Revolution that faded into the archives of also-ran history. Nancy Duarte gets that in order to change the world, people's minds have to change, and if you want to help catalyze that change, you have to touch their hearts. But what's especially refreshing about her inspirational talk here is that she's not just giving us the motivational locker room pep talk, she's also giving us her take on some practical strategies for how to engineer that kind of transformation in a presentation.
3 Act Story telling pattern, she narrated well with 3 beautiful examples, took us to that climax , later did a beautiful closure relating the theme ( you can change the world) to her own life and resonating that with the great statement saying you can change your own world that you have control on .....
Love love love this talk - so much resilience can be learned as part of a tough story. Use it to fuel your ideas, it can take time, keep your eye on the prize, you are worth it ❤
This was great! Thank you Nancy you are so relatable. I'm actually in a writers' seminar and we had to pause to watch this. I see why the organizer chose this.
Communication is a powerful way to influence people,We gain trust , insights , hallucinations, different perceptions etc just listening to random inspirational speakers.Some great speeches have no content at all , just mesmerising words or even in worst case falsified data only to get wider attention.On a positive note during a totally collapsed situation great speeches bring up all confidence to start from scratch , in a 100% unfavorable circumstances..
This is an outstanding presentation and the content works. Nancy chose two rich examples and used them to help us understand her message. It is a compelling message. Shehas the skill to help us "change the world." The concept of including stories is great.
One of things I noticed with presenters is they take too much time to warm the audience up. These people are here to not only learn but also.... wait for it... be entertained. I found much wealth in the content of this presentation but the presenter for me is on a lower level then others. This presentation needed her tools she is suggesting in her own presentation. Get them excited!!! What it is and what it could be. What it could be is exciting but I found myself falling asleep and daydreaming about what it could actually be.
Yes. She is so right... I AAAAM Yoda! No but in all seriousness I watched this for a class and I always love TED presentations, and yet again this one is no different. Good job.
Jobs and King why not? Both are great communicators in their field. A good idea is a great communicators in their field. They fill in the gap between what is and what could be. Great talk.
Did anybody else notice that she did not apply her own principles to her own speech? Linear for 15 minutes. No emotional contrast, and then right at the end she decides to implement the story and contrast mechanisms.
No. You missed it. Started with the personal story of the poster in Maui. And she continues to do "what is" and "what can be" all the way through the presentation. She continues to use "story" by explaining how she studied the structure of presentations. She went back and forth with Steve Jobs and MLK. She ended again with a more personal story.
She's basically saying, for presentations, it's similar to a story in that you have a rise and fall; but contrary to the original shape that was presented early in the presentation, there are several rises and falls within a presentation to make it interesting and captivating to an audience. She also touched on how repetition and a call-to-action is important when presenting an idea. There isn't just one way to present depending on the subject matter and speaker, but they all follow the same progression of comparing what the world is like without your idea to what the world is like with your idea.
i appreciate her epiphany. it does seem to be a decent guideline. i'd be interested to see whether it applies to non-choir as well. as in 'preaching to the choir'. both of her main examples (not to detract from their oral skills) are talking to sympathetic audiences. while most audiences won't be downright hostile, i'm not sure if the everyday prezzy, no matter the amount of lipstick, could be quite as effective as downright rabid fandom.
Her diagram seems to match the storyline of episodes of 'House'. Interesting fallout (character gest sick), gets slightly better, then flatline, then gets slightly better, then flatline again, then (heal/die). Great stuff.
There were several sections where if she paused longer and took a breath, her message would have more impact. I guess she was struggling with the anxiety. Good work though :D
Mohammed S. Yeah, I was thinking the same but the point here is not to get the audience excited about a certain product, but to present a discovery which isn't that mindblowing after all.
Fundamentally this information is good, & yes, Nancy is correct in her analogy of storytelling/presentations. She also speaks & engages us about someone/things we are familiar with & want to hear about (Star Wars/Jobs). However, I was far from being in a 'frenzy' nor did I have a 'heightened sense' with her overall presentation. What is missing here is charisma! Additionally, she could have connected us back to the beginning poster with a different story about herself other than being abused.
This was really really good until she shared her story. And then it became GREAT! I was attentive all the way through, but when she shared her story I was enraptured. I'll re-watch and remember this one for some time.
Does anyone else find her incredibly boring? Completely unimpressed with her presentation skills and her analysis of presenting. I have to watch this as a class assignment. This will be the first and last of her presentations that I watch.

This presentation was phenomenal! I loved how she modeled what she was teaching throughout. Memorable.

I truly appreciate Duarte's ability to tell a compelling story herself!

Great analysis of two great speakers and their notable speeches. Good work done.
Very insightful breakdown of those speeches! Amazing talk, loved the presentation. Back when TED talks actually had great quality.

You had me at "you have the power to change the world ". Thank you.
And thanks for sharing your story with me.
Loved her speech thoroughly!
Hope to someday meet her.. .what a brilliant mind and a wonderful voice
The future is a place we are co creating. Thanks, Nancy, and TEDxEast.
I delivered a talk tonight that, unbeknownst to me, followed this formula!
THANK YOU!!
I WON THE GOLDEN FUR NEEDLE 2012, USING YOUR VIDEO TO WORK OUT A PRESENTATIONS :)
Excellent!! Loved it!! Thank you Nancy - just what I needed to hear tonight...
What
Yes. She is so right... I AAAAM Yoda! No but in all seriousness I watched this for a class and I always love TED presentations, and yet again this one is no different. Good job.
This is phenomenal. I love it
Great insight! Felt the honesty in her words
Amazing storytelling FORMAT :)
You've inspired me to be true to myself 🙏🏾
Jobs and King why not? Both are great communicators in their field. A good idea is a great communicators in their field. They fill in the gap between what is and what could be. Great talk.
I really look up to Nancy Duarte
Thank you for your inspiring lecture Nancy. My hat off to you! :)
For a giant leap forward for thought and thinking, read the masterpiece novel "Where Do We Go Now, LORD? - Burke." Explains much. Very much.
Did anybody else notice that she did not apply her own principles to her own speech? Linear for 15 minutes. No emotional contrast, and then right at the end she decides to implement the story and contrast mechanisms.
Yes, I noticed that.
Very engaging and instructive.
Yay, I learned something
but this is my homework
Same
Same but I don,'t know how to do my work
Can you help me
Safwan Khan me too guys
You still watched the whole speech; she accomplished her goal.
WOW! Thank you...& i think your speech had the same shape as the greats as well.
apart from her "what every .. woman should do - marry with 18", there's nothing to object against this speech; learnt alot!! thanks
I think that was a joke the audience didn't catch on to
Amazing speech ! Thank you Nancy, God Bless you and your family as well.
Very good, Nancy. Very good speech.
Man this is really powerful! Really great stuff here.
Beautiful quote at the end there! 👏
No. You missed it. Started with the personal story of the poster in Maui. And she continues to do "what is" and "what can be" all the way through the presentation. She continues to use "story" by explaining how she studied the structure of presentations. She went back and forth with Steve Jobs and MLK. She ended again with a more personal story.
Brilliant Nancy. I would have you any day in my company.
What an amazing analysis!
thanks a lot Nancy Duarte, this will help me a lot!!!
So what is the pattern that she discovered that makes any presentation powerful? Where is that in this 18 minute speech?
+phillyphilhouse79 tell a story
She's basically saying, for presentations, it's similar to a story in that you have a rise and fall; but contrary to the original shape that was presented early in the presentation, there are several rises and falls within a presentation to make it interesting and captivating to an audience.

A great story + Great visuals is the recipe.

amazing. am buying her book right now.
Very inspiring and memorable speech!
Her diagram seems to match the storyline of episodes of 'House'. Interesting fallout (character gest sick), gets slightly better, then flatline, then gets slightly better, then flatline again, then (heal/die). Great stuff.
Great Ted talk, I love these videos.
I liked your talk and I watched it many times. Thank you.
A very compelling speech with story and emotion.
Amazing Information...hope you use all the time during presentation...thanks
what a beautiful way to describe the model :)
exactly, and only the end made a lot of impact. The rest was informative. I think she did it for a reason.
There were several sections where if she paused longer and took a breath, her message would have more impact. I guess she was struggling with the anxiety. Good work though :D
That was wonderful Nancy! Great job!
Amazing presentation!
AWESOME!!!
this is AMAZING!
If you are reading this from Kenya, I would love to connect!
According to Nancy Durate how long should viewers take to understand what's on your slide?
This was amazing! Thank you for sharing your insights.
I believe there is something wrong with her techniques, I can't keep focus on video for more than 3 minutes. maybe she is not applying them?
Mohammed S. Yeah, I was thinking the same but the point here is not to get the audience excited about a certain product, but to present a discovery which isn't that mindblowing after all.
lol

Thanks you very much, a very good insightful talk
I watched this on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Glory to God

This was really really good until she shared her story. And then it became GREAT! I was attentive all the way through, but when she shared her story I was enraptured. I'll re-watch and remember this one for some time.
Excellent

Delicious famine woman with integrity and courage we woman need.😇🙏🏼
freak

|Wow. Wow. I believe that says it all
Great presentation/story :)
so trueeee
AMAZING!!
Amazing
Anyone else feel like she just talked about how important the audience is so she'd be more liked?
So basically Donald Miller took this idea and made it Storybrand.
So you basically don’t really understand that storytelling isn’t patentable or a novel concept.
2:28 it has to come out of you *gestures from crotch*
Ahhh, birth of an idea!
This was great, by the way.
Lol😅🤣🤣😂👏👏👌👌
Yes
I like her.
how does a learning channel have 26mill subs
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Does anyone else find her incredibly boring? Completely unimpressed with her presentation skills and her analysis of presenting. I have to watch this as a class assignment. This will be the first and last of her presentations that I watch.
She is the excellent story teller I have ever seen. She inspired me.
Same, I have to watch it as a class assignment otherwise I would stop after a couple of minutes.
Bisous à tous les Ensipiens qui font ça la veille et ça pour les je ne sais combien d’années qui arrivent. Signé : vice prez BDE Pixar 💜
