Скачать или смотреть The Christmas Movie Speech Every Leader Should Learn From | Bill Murray’s Unexpected Leadership

Looking for fresh leadership inspiration as the year wraps up? This episode breaks down one of the most powerful - and surprising - speaker moments on screen: Bill Murray’s iconic transformation speech in the 1988 Christmas classic Scrooged.

This is my favourite Christmas movie, and every year I watch it on Christmas Eve purely for that speech. It’s a masterclass in emotional presence — the moment Bill Murray shifts from performing to feeling the message. And that shift is exactly what makes leaders unforgettable when they speak.

How to elevate your presence with the emotional clarity actors use
Why simplicity in language makes your message land harder
The leadership energy that lifts a room — and how to access it
What Bill Murray gets right about influence, impact, and connection
A practical technique you can use in your next presentation, meeting, or team moment
Whether you're leading a team, a board, or a whole organisation, this festive breakdown will help you step into the new year speaking with more confidence, heart, and impact.
