You are so gifted at speaking. I love the simple metaphor of the islands and boat—very effective...and it’s true for any kind of influence, persuasion, marketing, or just plain sharing of ideas. Well done!

You tell a great story, Majeed. And all the better that the story is about "THE STORY" itself. Your talk is a great way to introduce the power of communication in a bite-size "nummy" that EVERYONE can understand and implement immediately--from the "Board Room" to the family dinner table. Tell a story, win hearts & minds. Everyone should get on your boat!
