The Charisma Factor: What Makes Some Speakers Magnetic with Daniel Tolson

In podcasting, speaking, training, and edutainment, there's a group of people who just have something about them. A magnetism. A quality that makes them far more compelling to listen to than everyone else in the room.That quality is charisma -- and it's far more learnable than most people think.Daniel Tolson is a coach, speaker, podcaster, and personal development trainer who has failed in business more times than most people would even attempt. Despite that, he has persevered to build a successful coaching and training business and developed a clear framework for what separates the truly magnetic communicator from the merely competent one.What you'll learn in this episodeWhat charisma actually consists of and why wit and charm alone aren't enough, the missing element most people overlook that makes all the difference, why getting in your own way is the most common barrier to genuine presence, the achievement mindset and how to develop it, how to come back from repeated failure without losing your drive, and what coaching at 40,000 feet taught Daniel about human behaviour.About Daniel TolsonDaniel Tolson is a coach, speaker, and trainer based in Taiwan.
