“Between Music and Medicine”

Robert Gupta opened with a very heartfelt musical score on his violin to show his true passion for music.

“The beauty of music has the ability to speak where words fail…. Literally fail.” -- Robert Gupta

He told some amazing stories about his journeys through life and how he had to make the hard decision between being a musician and being a doctor.

Dynamism: I give Robert Gupta a score of 4.8 out of 5.

Although he is a great public speaker, he has his hands in his pockets quite often.

Nancy Duarte states that all great speakers throughout history have shared the same pattern in there presentations.

I have learned that following your instincts rather than following the traditional ideal methods can really inspire others.

Sir Ken Robinson

“Suddenly the purpose of why we’re making music has changed. It’s not about the ideal of perfection any longer, it’s about actually offering something”

--Robert Gupta

“Human intelligence is richer and more dynamic than we have been led to believe by formal academic education”

--Sir Ken Robinson

Delivery Methods That I Have Learned from Robert Gupta:

• Having a strong start is key to capturing the audiences attention.

• You should use some sort of reference to your topic that people can easily grasp such as a current event.

• It is good to use props so that the audience will have a better understanding of what you are talking about.
