Developing this persona allows him to connect with his audience even more. Let me give you one example. He showcased it with his speech structure. Jobs remarks he never graduated from university. Steve was a innovator, a crazy one, and he really made the difference between us. Sharing his hardships and developing his persona not only creates a rhetorical backing of ethos, but a rhetorical argument of pathos.
There was only a relatively small chance that the business would reach the target audience and no guarantee of converting exposure into effective leads. There can be no doubt that this man was one of the most influential people in the world, this speech was not the most profoundly moving speech ever heard, but it was authentic and real. Steve Jobs was the co-founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of Apple Inc. Although this manner of evaluating jobs is old, it is still the one. But as I continued to listen I soon received the central idea of the entire speech. Life lessons: you can nurture and grow. Some of those provisions were positive: Microsoft Office arriving on Apple's platform was greeted with cheers.
Jobs, his second story is about love and loss. Yes, there are bills to pay and deadlines to meet, but can you free up even an hour, or perhaps two, to step away and express your own creative freedom, whatever that looks like? He told the story about him diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. What does that mean exactly? First, he believes death is the best change-agent in life. You just have to wait and see. Then I read and heard his Grad Speech and oh my. Every part was very well connected from him being given up for adoption, to going to college failing out, to starting a busy and getting fired, a wife and kids, and to almost seeing death due to a rare cancer.
The final section of his speech that touches on death is indeed sorrowful. Jobs, he has always wished that for himself. And if others are going to help us, that's great … And if we screw up and don't do a good job, it's not somebody else's fault -- it's our fault … So the era of setting this up as a competition between Apple and Microsoft is over as far as I'm concerned. The same is true in life. And, looking back, since his death in 2011, the world has certainly changed. A great example how a simple opening could lead the audience to be more comfortable and connected.
Jobs, rather, talked about much of what background he has and nothing but the truth behind everything when he started his invention, which, in a blink of an eye, changed the world. Later in his life, he asked each morning whether he was excited to go in to work that day. Developing this persona not only creates an argument of ethos, but allows him to win his audience over. He was such a genius. Yet he had other advice for the students.
This creates another argument for pathos. So he dropped out of the classes he was suppose to take, and began to take the classes he wanted to take. Most people can relate to cancer. He makes it very clear what he is going to talk about. Steve Jobs opened a bit of his history and the main reason why he dropped out of Reed College. Maybe add one more concluding sentence to bring it back to the idea of ethos, before starting your next paragraph. An example is how he narrates his life at Reed College; how they came up with Apple Computers in a garage and the life he lived after being fired from Apple.
Six months into his first year at Reed College, Jobs dropped out-a very big deal, since his biological mother had made college education a requirement of his adoption, and his adoptive parents had saved for years so he could go. Satisfied employees have been found to be more production than unsatisfied. He was devastated, not surprisingly. In his speech, Steve Jobs manifests that it is important for an individual to take charge of their course of events. The last story is about death.
It was the first computer with beautiful typography. So, he decided to start again. With three simple stories, he conveys life lessons to all those present. As much as this event was personally devastating to Mr. In my book I mentioned how Steve Jobs used to prepare weeks ahead of his presentations. The lessons we can take from his impassioned speech from more than a decade ago still resonate today. According to Steve Jobs, Education is the unsung hero in every activity that an individual does.
