His ability to tell a story about innovation and human experience, rather than just listing technical specifications, is what made his presentations legendary. He painted vivid pictures of how technology could change lives, making the audience part of a larger narrative. In understanding the anatomy of elite speakers, storytelling emerges as a critical component.
