What do you not do and why not?

Success is not just what you do... it is also what you deliberately choose to not do each day.

Hi, I’m Conor Neill, I speak and write about Persuasion, the art of Moving People to Action. I have the privilege of being father to two great little daughters. I live in Barcelona, Spain.

Conor is a sought-after keynote speaker on Leadership. He teaches Leadership Communications at IESE Business School and is the President of Vistage in Spain, part of the world’s leading CEO organisation. As an entrepreneur, he has founded 5 companies, selling 16 private jets and building the 3rd largest fleet of private jets in Spain. He is a visiting professor at University College Dublin, the University of Montevideo and Permanent Faculty on Entrepreneurs’ Organisation’s Global Leadership Academy.

What is Persuasion?
* What does it take to move people to action?
* What does it take to have impact when you communicate?
* How can I inspire the people around me to be the best version of themselves?
These are questions that I answer. I answer these questions with tools that work for politicians, business leaders, entrepreneurs and professors.

Where do I begin?

Speak as a Leader is an email driven course. You will learn to deliver speeches that are interesting and lively so that you can capture and maintain your audience’s attention.

Always a pleasure listening to you sir. It’s been five years following you, and learning from you. I’ve become better and more productive than ever.

I’ve always been confident and intentional about public speaking and leadership, but you have helped me unlock my inner voice, polished me up and gave me a purpose. I can’t even begin to describe how much I’m grateful to have chanced upon your video.

I’ve gone from being a struggling student to public speaking a coach. And my students and I collectively are enjoying your videos and teachings. You are a great teacher and a mentor. You are teaching millions across the world. You are up there with my mentor; Jim Rohn ❤

I’m in Africa, Ghana 🇬🇭.

Thank you to all those who encouraged you to make this video. You always have something very meaningful to say that helps a lot. Yet again here’s something I needed to hear today. Thank you!

[williamolsen]

Wonderful. I plan on bringing this exercise to my team next week. Our manager is activity focused with no understanding or concern about time efficiencies.

[juliovildosola]

Another insightful snippet. And a great way to think about the opportunity cost of our actions.

My students love your videos during class

[annrosen]

Hi Conor, , thank you. Excellent advice and wisdom. We often try to do too much.

[arthurthomasware]

Your encouragement to get me making those 'talking head videos' around seven years ago, Conor, is really paying off now. I've received over 164, 000 hits on one of them alone! All of those hits coming in in less than two weeks.

[pitbed]

really good insight, thank you for sharing!

[swanand]

Thanks man, that really solved my problem

[AbhayGupta-ozix]

Thanks Mr. Neill always up for your wisdom words.

[amitaioliver]

Thank you Conor. These videos are great, they help to stop, reflect and improve!

[bjornuhss-private]

Very powerful question and habit of non-doing

[adam_matthews]

It’s almost like you took at look at my week and offered sage advice. I’m guilty of biting off too much and then not delivering on occasion, so I need to be more conscious of what I’m saying yes to but then having visibility over what I’m not doing.

[RichMulholland]

Love this, potentially a question to add to my evening reflections, "what did I not do today'. Also, because of what I avoided.

[Nacer]

An idea out of the box, thanks for sharing .

[jagannathshenoy]

Wonderful conversation, Thank you Sir 👍🙏🏻

[nicoyou]

Keep making those videos, I will watch them!

[yassermubarak]

Sir

Waiting always for your thoughts and guidance… please don’t stay long a wAy from us ❤

Hello, Conor. Your reflection is reminiscent of the Descartes Square decision making. Might be a subject for one of your next videos.

To see what is not there or what has not occurred, you need outstanding minds.

Who pays for what is not there/ not happend because of you???
Only the outstanding.
