For several years now, Chris Brogan's blog has been a must-read for anyone who wants to use social media productively. Add his thriving practice as a speaker, the fact that he co-founded PodCamp, and his New York Times bestseller Trust Agents (cowritten with Julien Smith) along with two other books (Google+ for Business: How Google's Social Network Changes Everything and Social Media 101)......and his now-legendary 2009 presentation at New Media Atlanta, where he brought an angry backchannel into the open and won it over......and you have a shoo-in for the social speech hall of fame not to mention someone well worth listening to on the subject of social media and public speaking. Especially because he'll explain what you, as a speaker, can have in common with the Grateful Dead.

With this episode, we flip the mic (metaphorically) and talk with someone who's a lot more used to writing speeches than delivering them. That's not to say Ian Griffin isn't at home behind a lectern; he's an accomplished speaker and a skilled communicator.If you're in the tech industry, you've probably heard his words; Ian has worked in executive communications at Cisco, Hewlett Packard and Sun Microsystems. He's also incredibly generous with his time and expertise, as many Silicon Valley communicators who've attended one of his presentations can tell you. In this interview, he asks why we put so much effort into creating a speech, and then fail to do that little extra bit that can help it reach far more people... and he offers lots of ideas for what that little extra bit can be.Ian Griffin's blog, Wikispaces hub, LinkedIn profile and Twitter feedWikispaces, Slideshare, Twitter search, HootSuiteCliff Atkinson's The Backchannel (yep, it came up again!)

The social web has gone a long way toward changing what it means to be in the audience at a speech making an audience member less a passive spectator listening to a monologue, and more an active participant in a conversation among peers. And nobody does that quite like Nancy White except she doesn't just rely on digital technology. She's one of the best group facilitators in the business, working all over the world with everyone from small community groups to Fortune 500 companies. You can see her approach at work in the March of Dimes' Share Your Story site, which several years on is still one of the examples we cite the most often of how online community can make a real different in people's lives. So who better to kick off Episode 1 of the Social Speech podcast?

If you're involved in public speaking as someone who delivers speeches and presentations, or as an executive communications practitioner, or as an event organizer then this is for you. Over the next several weeks, I'm going to share conversations I'm having with some of the smartest people I know about public speaking and social media: how connected audiences are transforming the world of presentations, and how some forward-thinking speakers are making the most of it. I'm calling it the Social Speech Podcast. You can find the feed here or subscribe on iTunes. Here's the introductory episode; the first interview will go live next week. But please don't let my schedule hold you up. Give this intro a listen, and if you have thoughts about the Social Speech (I've posted some of mine here) then please share them in the comments. Or email your text or audio comment (up to 25 MB) to [email protected] Thanks and I'll look forward to hearing from you!
