Ep. 42. Why you don’t need a script with Mental Theft author, magician and speaker, Paul Newton.

Today’s guest is author of Mental Theft, Paul Newton. Magician, mind reader, and former actor Paul, after a brush with the military, now talks about cyber security and cybercrime. As a much sort after keynote speaker, he scares the bejesus out of his audience’s telling them,

 ‘You may have the best security systems in place, but I can hack the people in your organisation!
It’s not all about high tech, it’s about people.
They’re either the weakest link or your strongest defence.’ 😱

A family man and a people person, based in the New Forest, Hampshire, he started magic at the age of 7 having been given a Paul Daniels magic set. Paul’s career has been a mix of theatre and corporate making for a very interesting conversation.

There are some great presentation and speaker tips in there too. Like how you can step out from behind a script and why we have a fear of the unknown rather than a fear of speaking. It’s insightful and entertaining stuff.
