Remain Curious 'I don't know...' the importance of humility

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.

The moment you say "I already know something", you are blocking your mind from receiving any type of new knowledge.
Thank you for sharing this video!

Thank you, Conor, for the important perspective of not knowing everything and staying open-minded and humble despite being an expert in particular area. The analogy with a tribe being in Singapore and noticing only wheelbarrow trully fits here and that really made sence when you compared that to going to Warren Baffet and listening to his talk about investing expertise. But, unfortunately, some people become unbearably arrogant after earning some degrees and gaining knowledge in some areas. However, genuises like you stay humble regardless of their broad-minded state and sharp expertise in certain domains. Thank you again for sharing your perspectives with us. We really appreciate that!

Thanks Conor

Great lesson again Conor. Humility is such an under-rated quality in life, especially in these attritional times. I really like your notion of being clear about our own values but always being open to new information and new perspectives from other people.

The talk no doubt is nice, inspiring, awesome. But it is far off from realty. It is fit for utopian world.
