Cavett Robert
Cajoling,
exhorting, fulminating, pleading, warning, uplifting,
and bubbling over with enthusiasm and practical advice.
Yes,
all these things . . . and still the essential element
is missing, the element that makes Cavett Robert unique.
It's
the honey. It's the thick aged honey of his voice,
the golden liquid sound that underlies and underlines
everything he says . . .the honey that betrays his
beginnings.
His
birthplace was Starkville, Mississippi, his BA degree
was earned at the University of Mississippi, and his
law degree from Washington and Lee University, Virginia.
If you doubt any of this, just listen to him; the
honey will prove it.
Underneath
the silky smoothness of the presentation lies the
background of years in sales and marketing, all the
practical experience of adding, "people knowledge"
to produce his concept of "human-eering."
Public
Speaking is for Cavett in some sense a third, culminative
and cumulative career, although they all overlap.
In
the beginning he was a lawyer.
Then
he used those skills to develop his expertise in insurance
and real estate.
Finally,
he became a public speaker par excellence, winning
awards that would take most of this issue to list.
Cavett
is called "the Dean of Public Speakers"
because of his founding of the National Speakers Association.
Now, when that group makes its annual award ot the
year's outstanding public speaker, the award presented
is called the "Cavett" and it is regarded
among public speakers much the way the Oscar is among
actors.
