Video: This Speech Won the 2015 Toastmasters Best Speech in the World

Whether you’re preparing for a career-defining presentation or your wedding speech to a packed venue, public speaking is a pretty essential skill for any young professional.

And no, it’s not easy for most of us.

Perhaps we could all learn a thing or two from Mohammed Qahtani, a security engineer from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, who won the Toastmasters World Championship of Public Speaking recently. In doing so, he beat out 33,000 other competitors from around the world.

His speech titled “The Power of Words” Qahtani is humorous, gripping, personal, and moving – which is pretty much all you can hope for in the speech department.

But hey, don’t just take out word for it: check it out for yourself (and take some notes).
