Charismatic habits
1. Expansive hand gestures
2. Using vocal dynamics
3. Inhabiting characters/actions of the story
4. Eye contact
5. Using the stage
This is what we used to call in highschool as Nonverbal cues.
Thats basically Hasan Minhaj
@Ken Able So the competition MUST be at a podium where they are completely motionless. According to who? The art of communicating with a large group of human beings would include all those things. I think it's much more likely that you just aren't good at some or all of those things, and it upsets you.
@Ken Able powerful argument you've got there
@Ken Able And I'm probably not the only one who thinks you're twisting semantics because you're incapable of actually dynamically speaking to a large audience
Now, I don't feel so bad placing 1st Runner-up to Aaron in the 2019 Regional Quarter-final this year. Congratulations, Aaron from Dutch Martin, D27 Champ! 🙏👍👏👏👏
Man I cannot tell but I am so proud that you spoke about Indian tradition at such a big stage
Proud of you man #lovefromindia
Agreed! Loved that this story has such a great purpose of bringing cultures together.
Is the shoe story actually true?
@@peteWxM1970 yes
I got goosebumps when I heard his final line. People don't remember what you say, they remember how you made them feel. Well done!
what was it
Same
i was there in the audience. as soon as Aaron finished i said to myself “ i don’t care who comes next , this guy won already “
brilliant Aaron . so proud of you
Mohammed Alqahtani Totally agreed
i wanna learn public speaking
@@yashpandey_ me to. I have no idea how I am going to do this. 😭
Your speeches also marvelous
@@carybtyd bro i want to join armed forces and to join that i have to speak better and fluent english in interview.
the last 2 minute gave that sudden impact of emotions...his humor turned out and ended up with a great message "acceptance despite of differences"
I loved this speech. Gripping story, gradually built towards the climax, and then an earnest, timely message. All delivered in his own natural style. Hit every note correctly! Well deserved 👏🏼
This guy is brilliant!! Hatsoff to both the families who invited him 🙏! I guess this icebreaker just melted our hearts guys !!
Finally a speech wins without gimicks or unneccessary over-the-top acting!
Tbh I see him acting.
It was over the top for me.
Tho it has black jokes..
Acting is part of the speech. Over-the-top acting is subjective anyway
Aaron is so much more than a mechanically sound speaker with contagious stage presence and honed delivery skills; more than a talker - he's a teacher; more than keynoter - he's an ambassador of acceptance and love; who transformed the common topic of 'cultural diversity' into 'cultural Commonality.' So cool that he didn't let himself get in the way of his life changing message that epitomizes the unwritten 'mission' of Toastmasters International: 'Seek To Bless, Not Impress.' Whoa! Congrats!!
Thank you Dan! I appreciate that.
I accept you Mission Aaron! And I will try my best to take it seriously 😀
Many congratulations on this well deserved victory Aaron🏆
Many thanks my friend. I appreciate that you will take the call to action.
This has inspired me to do the storytelling elective speech.
"This is your mission, take it very seriously."
That's one crazy story but I like how it all came together in the end.
mrbigg151 you’d be surprised by how much of that story is not exaggerated 🙂
mrbigg151, this actually happens in Indian wedding. Come India, join us and experience it :)
@@sheshangajwalia4606 I SOOOO wishI could. I've had a few friends but have never been to an Indian wedding
2016 - " So let's make the words we do say count. You'll be surprised how long people will remember a few words."
I just realized that was him! Thank you for reminding me of my favourite speech :)
Didn't laugh at all.
I was taking him very seriously.
To be really honest. He was prepping it up to be a stand up comedy routine with vicious punchlines which never came, on the precipice of a great joke which never happened. And ended with a story which was sappy and attempts to pull on your heart strings was a little lame.
Bruce Skellator haha good one 👍😂
Anuj Nair no worries some humor and speaking are like art some people like some styles some people don’t. For instance Jerry Seinfeld has never once made me laugh hard but he’s still a beloved comedian for many others.
@@publicspeakingmentor and I honestly thought I might just be the only person who never found Jerry Seinfeld amusing in one little way. It's for the same reason why people just don't see the wit in the buffonary of Conan O Brien. His humor is off the top, but the sheer cleverness and references he brings to the table on the spot is unparalled.
Anuj Nair I actually thought he was funny. I would compare it to sitting at dinner and telling your friends a story. I didn’t see where he tried to be funny because he actually was without going overboard. His speech flowed nicely, and his delivery was realistic. This is coming from someone who doesn’t laugh much. I thought he did a great job.
There are world championships for public speaking? Nice.
As organised by an organisation with clubs spread in towns and cities all over the world called 'toastmasters'. The purpose of the clubs worldwide are to assist individuals to develop, work at and grow in their public speaking and leadership skills. Competitions get organised by the organisation such as the above and smaller regional or national focused competitions. I'm a member of 'godiva speakers' in Coventry United Kingdom...I need to deliver my first icebreaker speech soon 👋
@@lstoryrecords_ Good luck, James! I've been a member of the Chamber Toastmasters Club (Kiyv, Ukraine) for 5 years. But I still remember my Icebreaking speech😀 Good luck and keep going!
@@alekseyaleynikov9973 thankyou very much
james kristel Hi. I was wondering do you think a toastmasters club would be beneficial to someone with social anxiety and poor communication skills?
@@jalapenopizza9505 absolutely! Why not! It's for everyone!
You speak from heart. That's soothing.
You made District 18 proud Aaron - powerful speech. You nailed the first 6 seconds and the audience stayed with you the entire way
I watched this speech 5 times , taking notes. From vocal tonality to story telling and body language. This speech is so rich of passion and techniques. I will incorporate them in my speeches as your fellow Toastmaster Aaron. Thank you for your hard work and persistence. I first saw you in 2016 and you inspired me then and now you rocked my public speaking world 🙏🙏🙏😃😃👍
This isn't just a speech from a contest, this is a speech from essence. 🙂❤
Thank you for that. :)
@@publicspeakingmentor i want to learn how you have a good confidence
Well done Aaron.....what a speech it is, I got goosebumps in the end when you said "Take it very seriously!!!"
That was beautiful!! So well delivered, the story pulls us in and makes us laugh and want to fight with him for those shoes and then brings us all together, no matter our differences on the outside we are all exactly the same on the inside. Thank you Aaron Beverly for reminding us of that - I take my mission very seriously and will carry the torch (shoes) forward as one of your champions!
Such a nice thing to say. ❤
I laughed, I listened, and I learned. Superb Storyteller!!!
in truth i only watch this because this is an assignment that my prof. give to me (and of course my classmate too) and at first i thought it will be boring but i actually like it and it is funny too. He is good in talking in a public, calm, confident, and straight forward without being nervous. Also he is good in making the audience excited and not boring at all. 10/10
Can you send me your work here?
Oh, yeah! He's a CHAMPION! Congratulations World Chapion of Public Speaking Aaron Beverly!!
Congrats Aaron. I heard about your achievement today.. the day I'm scheduled to attend my first toastmasters meeting in Philadelphia. Very motivational and inspiring 👍🏾
Dawud A that’s awesome. I’m hoping this organization can change your life as much as it has mine.
At first I was like anybody could give a talk like that, what makes him so special? But as soon as the story ended and he explained the reason behind telling that story, i almost cried!
Dam I feel you. I was like I've seen some speakers, but by the end, I was so mind blown. I literally have to go back and deconstruct this whole thing now.
A very common story from Indian wedding culture but told in a great manner. Congratulations Champion. I’m from India but I live in Brazil. I miss India after listening to this story with his Indian attire!!!
Joshua Motikya: Public Speaking Trainer thank you. It’s a lesson in public speaking that the common and simple are most times the most impactful.
Congrats Aaron, nice comeback, 'cuz if I'm not mistaken I've ever seen him as a 3rd in toast master championship!
Kareem's Vlog I came 2nd in 2016
“Open your culture, your mind, your heart, to people that are different from you” -well said
Truly an unbelievable performance with an unbelievable story! Also, felt too proud as Indian culture was portrayed on such a big stage:-)
Aaron am so proud of you - Welldone!! Every culture has no room for discrimination but it is politicians that creates these divisions globally
Olayinka Aina I believe it’s much more than just politicians but the lesson should be applied by us all
You are right sir
True, unfortunately currently in India the extreme right is with closed minds separatist thoughts is propagating hatred
“If you don’t vote Democrat you ain’t black!” - Joe Biden
Amazingly delivered!!!!!!!!
Proud to be an Indian
I thought the story was great, just enough humor to keep you entertained the gestures & eye contact along with the various pitch made it remarkable. Former T.M. Cleveland, Ohio
Thank you Angela
The last minutes were excellent. His cadence and vocal rhythm during the telling of the story "seemed" a bit campy but I think that's it's done as a technical element for the judges. I'd love to hear him speak off the cuff
This Indian Ritual acts as an ice breaker. What a great presentation Aaron and what a great call to action.
Many thanks 🙏

@Minh Quân I responded 2 years ago and to respond to your reply I need to again see the full video. However, I did appreciate the skill sets of the presenter. Content will always vary from expert to expert.
This video never gets old! 🙌🏾
Aaron is really a good speaker. Direct to his point
dont mind me im just here for my online class
Lol same
Same here🙋
That makes 3 of us
I too now 4 😂😅
5 now
A phenomenal speech. Congratulations Aaron.
Congratulations Aaron! I am particularly proud of your perseverance in aiming for the championship. Your semi-final and final speeches demonstrate your storytelling mastery. Thank you for the motivation to stay the course. Best wishes on your next steps.
Most important thing to know, is that this same gentleman took 2nd place in 2016. Did not stop his personal improvement arc. Love it!
I was listening to this, thinking "that's a lousy and cliche title." I love his voice, energy and pacing, though. THEN, he gave it a twist. His title was perfect once he told us that. This was great.
Incredible speech. Well deserved!
This guy deserves to be the best
Epic speech and epic performance. Great stuff man, hope to see more of you in the future.
Congrats to new champion of public speaking. Very good timely message given by his speech.
When I am given a mission, I take it very seriously! - Beverly, Aaron Beverly.
This is the most fascinating video I've ever seen. However, I do understand something that I don't comprehend.
Great speech!
gabrr1el 🙏
Wonderful Speech 10/10!
My man just killed it!!!
Its an amazing toastmaster speech.
Wow, that was brilliant; it held my attention throughout. Sharp opening, laugh-out-loud moments and a meaningful ending; well done Aaron.
Indian traditional things are nothing but it's the way of people coming together live together.. I'm proud to be a Indian..love you Aaron...
Indian tradition is above your understanding
@@Deepaksingh-sd9qy means..?
@@Deepaksingh-sd9qyit is same for you...!
Closing is awesome
Beautiful speech!
Thank You Brother
Wonderful delivery.
We have lots of fun events on wedding.
Saroj Ghosh yes this I now know 😁
Lesson:
- Be Friendly
- Be Nice
- Be Responsible
- Don't be a Racist bastard!!
and don't seek it out on others behalf
Fantastic presentation! So engaging, funny and touching. 🙌🙏❤
Aaron. Very nicely done. Consummate storytelling to make an excellent point! Welcome to the club! WCPS 04
Randy Harvey many thanks. You may not remember but when. You visited District 38 you gave me the advice that the only way to win was to come from the heart. I did my best to do that ever since. Thank you!
He lost the shoes but won the world championship. My teacher used to say “ don’t catch the elephant by the tail “, I say don’t catch the man by the shoes!😂
You just win the heart 💓.. explaining the wedding ceremony..
Love from #IN love you brother 💓
great speech: humurous, entertaining and passes a very powerful message.
What a great storyteller. I kept laughing throughout the whole fighting for shoes part.
Terrific I am connected to the story from teh beginning.
Love from India
Education is the key that unlocks the golden door to freedom.” -George Washington Carver
Wonderful message Aaron.
What a compelling story
It turned from public speaking to stand up comedy,UNBELIEVABLE!
Really? I don't get the sense he was kidding at all. In fact, he said several times it's a mission to be taken very seriously--just so the audience wouldn't miss the point.
Tek XPlore comedians are public speakers your comparison is not far off as I style a lot of my delivery from the styles and techniques that comedians use.
Very sincere presentation and nice ending.
Great speech, Aaron!!
Wow! It is an amazing speech! I watched it couple times already. (I like the 2016 one better though ;) Congratulations on your achievement Aaron! Can't wait now for a self-evaluation! :)
Marcin Waśko Thanks for the comment.
Honestly, I like my 2016 speech better too 🙂 But I did enjoy giving this one.
A self evaluation will be in the works soon.
@@publicspeakingmentor I can't wait! On the other hand - it's your time to celebrate now ;)
@@publicspeakingmentor I liked your 2016 speech as well compared to your winning speech; however you have grown as a speaker. You can tell your confidence level was a lot higher with this speech. 2016 speech if i would guess is your signature speech about you, so you feel it more than this speech. Congratulations, Well deserved Champion.
Only suggestions for improvement with this speech would be- some areas seemed too rehearsed and the title was a little odd to me. Yes it was an unforgettable story to you but didn't seem like it played well with the message. unforgettable lesson may have fit better off the top of my head.
Brian McAfee many thanks, my friend. I appreciate that feedback. I completely agree. My confidence and execution exceeded my 2016 speech, I believe even though I feel the content in 2016 was stronger
@@publicspeakingmentor I would completely agree; your speech was ready in 2016 with your content and almost got you the victory probably should have anyway; but your confidence level with this year speech was far better. Enjoy your Victory!
CONGRATULATIONS Aaron. Being an Indian-American, I can fully relate with the story. Your presentation was very universal that anybody from any culture could understand it very well. You are Super. 💐❤️🇺🇸🇮🇳

Stand up comedy to motivational speaker... smooooth
We Indian have already accepted this mission.
India🇮🇳
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha
Well deserved 👏🏼👏🏼🏆🏆🏆
it sounds like he keeps saying, "when i have emission (flatulence), I take it very seriously."
Makes sense at a friends wedding.
Proud toastermaster
What a funny, and beautiful speech!
Effective public speaking is entertainment. Performing in bands, singing, or doing stand up is also excellent prep for public speaking. You learn what works and what doesn't. Sure, Toastmasters can definitely help but it's not the only way. I found it to be a bit too rigid but it's a good program.
I completely 100% agree with you. In fact I view stand up as a form of public speaking and I view comedians as some of the most successful public speakers that we have in modern times. To be successful at public speaking you have to learn from multiple sources. I learned from sources outside of Toastmasters as well as Toastmasters itself.
Mind blowing Aaron. That was wonderful speech with all the right emotions. Yes, we Indians do accept everyone as part of our family. Nice message and mission given to the people as well.
To be frank, this speech is very inspiring and encouraging. it doesn't begin or proceed with boring statement or any argument to make a point; instead, it starts with funny story, dynamic and dramatic behavior to make it vivider, and strikes the audiences' heart when it's to the end with a sensible and reasonable argument. Nice to enjoy the champion show!
Goodness! I liked it very much. No wonder he is the winner.
LIGHT=L-iving I-n G-reat
H-armony T-ogether
RIGHT=R-eality I-s G-reat H-atred T-ogether
Thanks for your concern.
I honestly thought his speech wasn’t funny enough but it’s the message that really got me. Crafty and Inspiring!
This is great
Awesome
Wow I loved it so much😍
amazing speech Aaron. Looking at your attire makes me respect you more for respecting our tradition and presenting it at an international stage. Much power and love to you from India.
