Helping engineers & tech leaders communicate with impact. 20+ years as a speaking coach & trainer. Brilliant but unheard? I built a community for you 👇

Most technical people are the smartest person in the room.

They just can't prove it.

Not because they lack knowledge — but because their message never lands the way they intend.

I've spent 20+ years helping engineers, founders and technical leaders fix that.

If you're brilliant at what you do but frustrated that people don't respond the way you expect — your ideas deserve to be heard.

I built a community for exactly this 👇

Well done to @LewisHamilton . Amazing to see Hammer Time returning and a Ferrari 1st place. Really happy to see this.
I was really hoping to see the Mojo return. This win shows the doubters that real talent will always shine.

@DaveBlundin @claudeai @Google @sundarpichai I don't think at this point making an official release which doesn't equal the existing top spot carries enough weight to be worthwhile. They usually save some performance, maybe they'll release more than they otherwise would this time to stay at the front.

@PeterDiamandis Many are consuming a lot of negative communication and being distracted. Even people living a happy life are wondering about their future and hearing the negativity, so it takes active attention and an open mind to see/hear the positive info and maintain an abundant mindset.

@elonmusk And the first data centre on the moon could be in the shape of a huge pyramid that points back at the Giza Pyramid.

@PeterDiamandis Unfortunately humans trying to keep up will probably be the main thing slowing the improvements.

@elonmusk Where some people are failure, others see feedback.

@PeterDiamandis Watching the Moonshots podcast is the human equivalent of giving your AI a new skill each episode.

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@OpenExO @LinkedIn @salimismail always has really heart-centered insights into the largest ideas around AI abundance.

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@OpenExO @salimismail This is definitely a great opportunity for connecting to the team that's a no brainer.

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@OpenExO Always amazed at the scale, depth and insights of your interactions.

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@DaveBlundin And it even includes "Ultra code" {insert dramatic sounds here} :)

Seriously though, with the Pope joining the conversation about AI and human focused development, it's certainly going to be a crazy ride.

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@DaveBlundin @StockSavvyShay That's a solid step in the right direction

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@PeterDiamandis Amen to that. Keep doing what you're doing. Very inspiring and motivating.

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@DaveBlundin And somehow with that amazing brain, you're also a really nice guy and going out of your way to inspire others and make a difference in the world.
Truly amazing.

One of the biggest misconceptions about public speaking is that confident speakers are fearless.

They’re not.

Confidence is usually built through uncomfortable experiences.

A few years ago, I was flown to Belgium to deliver a 90-minute seminar.

The problem?

I still hadn’t seen the slides while sitting on the flight the night before.

No perfect preparation.
No rehearsed script.
Just pressure.

But there was one thing working in my favour:

I knew the subject deeply.

And that changed everything.

Once the seminar started, I stopped focusing on myself and started focusing on the audience and the value I could give them.

The session went well.

Not because it was flawless.
Because I stopped treating public speaking as a performance and started treating it as service.

That experience taught me something important:

Confidence does not come from perfect conditions.

It comes from repeatedly facing situations that stretch you and realising you can handle them.

Most people wait to “feel confident” before taking opportunities.

But confidence is usually the result of action, not the prerequisite for it.

The biggest shift for me was this:

Stop asking:
“How do I avoid mistakes?”

Start asking:
“How do I help the people in this room?”

That single mindset change makes public speaking dramatically easier.

Prepare well.
Know your subject.
Focus on value.
Embrace uncomfortable opportunities.

That’s where real confidence is built.

@DaveBlundin @PeterDiamandis @MIT @raykurzweil @alexwg Loving the positive and forward thinking approach your team take. Truly a beacon of light in a chaotic world where uncertainty can so easily translate into concern.

[AndyHenry @AndyHenry]

@AlexFinn It's not a surprise
People in general struggle with change, regardless of whether it's good or not. Humans are pattern matching machines and are constantly trying to make their view of the world make sense. Change at the speed AI is developing is unheard of.
