“Being asked to speak at the Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley is an extraordinary privilege when it happens the first time, but when it happens again you are overcome with both a sense of gratitude and great feeling of obligation not to let this critically thinking, warm & receptive, audience down.
When you address any audience you feel the need to give. These people give you back more than you could possibly hope to receive. On my recent return engagement, I didn't feel like I was presenting to an audience. I felt like I was just visiting with family.
Oh, and one more thing. If you're a speaker, be at the top of your game. These folks take notes! I know this because I was actually asked to sign some from my prior appearance! Look sharp!”
