b'The book was produced by Jim Keating, CEO of Speakers Forum in Toronto. Like many businesses around the world, his Leaders Lecture Series had to go dark as the pandemic surged. In 2021, one of his former speakers, the entertaining CNN television personality Larry King passed away. Keating recalled the great memories of King\\u2019s visit to Speakers Forum and spontaneously wrote up a short story, an appreciation of the man. Well, it hit a chord with friends & colleagues and inspired him to produce OutSpoken: 15 MasterClass Business Essays, bringing together great past keynote speakers to write about today\\u2019s important topics. And if they could not all meet in person, they could certainly bring all their ideas together in a book. The 15 Masterclass Essays include works by such notables as: \\u201cWhat Makes a Speech Great\\u201d by President Clinton\\u2019s Chief Speechwriter, David Kusnet \\u201cNo Mountain Too High: Learning the Lessons of Everest\\u201d by Mount Everest expedition leader John Amatt \\u201cWhat Makes a Bestseller\\u201d by acclaimed author Jeffrey Archer \\u201cThe Media is You, Like It or Not\\u201d by the Honourable Pamela Wallin, O.C., S.O.M. \\u201cWork Is So Much More Than a Paycheque\\u201d by Dr. Sherry Cooper, Chief Economist, Dominion Lending Centres \\u201cThe Defence Never Rests\\u201d by Renowned Defence Attorney F.
