AI and people both run on LLMs. AI has large language models. People have little life moments. But mostly, we don't draw on our LLMs confidently or consistently enough.Neal Foard does, and that's made him one of the most exceptional (and viral) storytellers in the business world.  Neal joins me today to lay it all out: we talk about constructing stories, practicing and rehearsal, and how to shape a true story into something entertaining. Together, we hear his famous story of "the best bartender in Chicago" and talk about the little moments that make it work.Neal is a keynote and TEDx speaker, a former ad agency and brand executive, and a storytelling and personal brand coach. After 25 years in advertising and marketing, working with world-class brands, Neal teaches leaders how to tell more persuasive stories.The story we dissect: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wUuSeb2p4U">the Best Bartender in Chicago.</a>The final story you hear in the episode: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCRHZnW17RQ">the Peace Treaty.</a>Connect with Neal on his <a href="https://www.nealfoard.com/">website</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/nealfoard">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/nealfoard">YouTube</a>, or <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/neal-foard/">Linkedin</a>.***CLARIFY YOUR MESSAGE + INCREASE YOUR IMPACT:Subscribe to my newsletter and learn more about me at<a href="https://jayacunzo.com/"> jayacunzo.com</a>Work with me one-on-one to nail your message or your next speech: <a href="https://jayacunzo.com/services">jayacunzo.com/services</a>Book me to speak: <a href="https://jayacunzo.com/keynotes">jayacunzo.com/keynotes</a>***ABOUT JAY ACUNZO:You don't need more content.
