as an ego boost.

14. There is a distinct difference in the performance and
experience in speaking between Ken Robinson and
Rating Elizabeth Gilbert.
5.0 Ken Robinson displayed a much more experienced approach in his
speech. He was very educated in his research of his topic. He
successfully incorporated humor in his speech. He also has an
incredible ability to control his crowd and lead them in the direction he
wants them to go. Even when he is telling a joke that is off subject, the
punch line brings it all back to his topic. You cant help but want to
finish watching his presentation.
3.5 Elizabeth Gilbert is a good speaker but her inexperience shows. She
did show a tremendous passion for her subject but her delivery was a
bit difficult to follow. There was no real structure. Though she did have
mild success with humor at times her jokes weren't read by the
audience very well. At times she sort of rambled which causes you to
lose interest. She does have great potential to become a strong
speaker. She just needs the experience that only speaking more could
provide.
