Yes, but what about reality? This explains why complete idiots actually get enthusiastic followers to be *for* things that are very bad. This explains why there are people who think murderous rapists should be welcome into all countries. This explains why people like 0bama and the clintons have followers, even though they want horrible things for the USA. :( This Simon Lancaster is so into language, he is blind of reality and facts.

I love how he explained that rhetoric isn’t taught in schools as it once used to be. Now there’s so many young people out there that have no idea how to express themselves and it holds them back from making a difference. I somehow feel like this isn’t an accident. Someone was trying to hold us back.

Let's Revive Rhetoric in Public Education! "It is absoulutely scandalous that, when in the world we're dealing with such huge challenges , financial inequalities, the apocalyptic threats of climate change, religious persecution unmatched since the 1940s, that we should be restricting debate to such a narrow minority (the politicians). Instead of teaching our children to sit down and shut up we should be teaching them to stand up and speak out. So, let's revive rhetoric (in education). Let's really reinvigorate debates around the world and let's really give the chance to every child on the planet to become a leader. How should we call this Grand Initiative? Well, here's an idea: How about Democracy!?" Simon Lancaster A strong finish! Superb indeed!

Very well done. Not only was he sharing information that can really help the people, but he was demonstrating how it can help by using it himself.

This has to be one of the best TED talks of all of them. You learn so much in every single minute as it passes. And I bet you'll be coming back from time to time to see this one.

This explains why people fall for simplistic answers to complex geopolitical issues. This explains why attacking convenient scapegoats and making sweeping generalizations appeals to simplistic minds. This explains why people like Trump attract so many followers, because they appeal to the most base parts of human nature.

I could listen to this man all day long. You don't get to listen to such valuable words from real intelligent people at outside as they'd rather choose not to share their insights for free. One ted talk video a day can actually keep vacuous thoughts away, you know!

Simon, you have summarized things we know about society (so your credibility is not at issue) in a beautiful, humorous, witty, eloquent, adventurous and unique way. You have talent for comedy, theater, etc. Excellent job - you are a born entertainer! ❤

The charm this person brings with himself, the body language, and his cute smile is fabulous. One of the best TEDx👍

I am watching this video for improving my English language 😂😂😂. It is amazing channel. Whenever I can so many things from this channel. I can learn from other's experience, and I can improve my pronounciation etc..... Whenever I free then I watch it 🙂. One day, I will speak on this stage front of everyone.

Apart from songs, this is possibly the only video I've watched repeatedly. Brilliant, from start to finish

His coherence is simply remarkable! I like the way he talks about reaching goals.

Mr. Simon Lancaster is a rare breed who is a wonderful speaker; impressing listeners beyond description incredibly well. Islamabad Pakistan

Deserves to be viewed many more times. Simply brilliant...

I must say, that improvisation was very impressive. Also, I have to agree that those 6 techniques(three breathless sentences, three repetitive sentences, balancing sentences, exaggeration, metaphors, and rhyming) all seem effective, and the examples he gave seem to back up his argument that they work.

What made the improv even more impressive was that he was advocating for the opposite of what he thinks and believes in! A man that can come up a speech like that on the fly about something he doesn't even believe in, when he speaks of something that does align with his values... WATCH OUT!! He'll be selling ice to the Eskimos in no time!

A really talented man; just watch his ability to improvise a speech.. He was great.

This Guy is brilliant. Got halfway through the speech, paused it to order Winning Minds - Secrets from the language of Leadership. He is my new guru.

One of the most intuitive and brilliant TED speeches I've ever listened to. Wonder why it doesn't have the number of views it deserves.

I have to write my father's obituary, which i will present by speaking it in his funeral (of my own volition of course) And this TED talk couldn't have come at a better time.

( ! ) Okay, I really enjoyed this talk and agree this is a very important topic, but this was uploaded in 2016, I'm writing this comment in 2018. Nothing has changed at all. Nobody (to my knowledge) has implemented retoric/speech in the school programs. The same goes for other valuable ideas shared before in TEDx, for example, I remember a talk given by an old man who lived in Africa and had discovered how to stop climate change by bringing in roaming cattle to dry lands... What are we waiting for? This comment section is full of capable and inteligent people, We applaud this concepts and ideas, but we don´t take action.

Amazing talk. I LOVE this. I really liked how he used all the techniques after explaining them.

Very knowledgeable talk! A lot of concise information and applicable theory provided in less than 19 minutes. Leadership is one of those things that machines will never be able to do.

Bloody good talk, he didn't mention asking questions though, which is strange considering how much he used them either to keep the audience engaged by questioning their beliefs keeping them focused and paying attention, to asking rhetorical questions implying that his point of view is obviously the best

Great sharing Simon, thank you very much.

I still remember when I watched 3 years back and now which is very helpful!

The spontaneous demonstration he gave was powerful. Really put a smile on my face. What a great talk I'll be applying some of these concepts in my KZread Channel and at work!

Insanly good. This guy is an absolute master of his art. I touched the winning price tonight, thanks!

He's an excellent guide to public speaking (speaking from my own experience). Wise words in the end; schools of rhetoric must be available for all children whose future is in their hands because adults failed them.

Finally, someone using rhetoric in an accurate way. Bravo!

Important Clippings: - 6 speech writer secrets: 1. The rule of 3. Like TEDx slogan: rethink, reinvent, and reinvest ourselves. 2. Three sentences in which the opening clause is repeated. 3. Metaphor is probably the most important piece of political communication. 4. Images of positive and negative things. 5. Exaggeration 6. Rhyming sentences -They work because they speak to the instinctive, emotional and logical brains. -Instead of teaching our children to sit down and shut up, we should be teaching them stand up and speak out.
