What They Don’t Teach You at Stanford Business School About Public Speaking

by Larry Chiang on December 5, 2011

Larry Chiang is an instructional humorist and has a PBA (Padawan in Business Administration). He will have you street savvy by Saturday. After a Harvard Business School event, they wrote:  “What They Don’t Teach You at Stanford Business School“. He spoke at a BASES event, did Q&A  via text message and now teaches us what the underbelly of business looks like in, “What They STILL Don’t Teach You at Stanford GSB About Scamming“.

UPDATE: If you’re a Stanford engineer, come to Scottsdale Gelato Spot at 4166 Scottsdale Dec 28 from 7:30-8:30pm for gelato on me. RSVP with your full name to my cell 650-283-8008

This should be my shortest post ever.

Here is how you ace public speaking: you follow up with gifts and internship opportunities. I may not be the smartest person to ever keynote the stage at Stanford, but I am the hardest working. I work and hustle for my audience members (and readers). Here is how I do it:

FOLLOW UP #1) I don’t just preach, I practice: How??  Text me and I will get you an internship offer or five.

FOLLOW UP #2) More Fraiche for you. Yes, those that came to my keynote at Stanford at Tresidder got free Fraiche courtesy of Ted from Dorsey. This time, I am getting you an engineering job lead and more Fraiche. How?? Read this or text me:  650-283-8008

If you missed the killer BASES keynote I gave about getting an internship. You can see it here.

Follow me on Twitter @larryChiang or join my 7 9 person fan club on Facebook. Remember, my book’s 14 chapters are reprinted free at a website called BusinessWeek. If you cannot sleep, watch my 90 minute panel that would’ve put half the room to sleep were it not for my dog Baxter storming the stage to co-moderate.

Good luck hustling hard and effen follow up. If you have a start-up, you can sponsor a party I am hosting at Sundance and SXSW

DISCLOSURE: I don’t make money from Fraiche. I don’t make money from Topix. I do appreciate the monopoly that Congress  granted and the FTC is enforcing: It’s the law that states only companies that get college students to high FICO scores (Duck9) can sell a credit card to that college student.
