Not a bad read overall; it's quick and easy to get through, yet it doesn't really provide any meaningful insight into how to "Talk Like TED." The essence of Gallo's few instructions comments you can find from any decent book on public speaking: be authentic; gestures are important; be funny; make an impact; visuals are powerful; have passion. I think that covers it all for this books, as far as public speaking is concerned.
If you're interested in the context around some of the more popular TED talks, then this book really shines. It is well written; it's just that the content and title are incongruent.

I love watching TED talks and I have been watching TED talks for well over 10 years. I always marvel at some of the best presentations given on the platform. How the speaker was able to make the audience laugh on cue or have the room filled with silence yet everyone is leaning forward full engaged.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 18, 2020
To succeed in the corporate world, one must learn the act of presentations. How to tell stories that move people. The book gives great anecdotes regarding the prep or behind the scenes of some of these world famous TED talks. Would highly recommend this book for any keen to improve their communication, story telling and presentation skills .
