About this Event
Welcome to the RBC London event, where we'll be diving into March's theme, COMMUNICATE, through this month's read , by Charles Duhigg.
Supercommunicators is “a riveting read about how to understand others better. It’s also a revealing look at how to be understood. Charles Duhigg delivers a winning combination of stories, studies, and guidance that might well transform the worst communicators you know into some of the best.” - Adam Grant
Inspired by our monthly non-fiction reads, our mix of part cocktail party, part creative classroom is a recipe that builds your reading habit while connecting with like minded people.
Special guests
, Public speaking coach
Alex spent the last 10 years helping people unlock the true potential of their ideas so they get the credibility and respect they deserve. He's used public speaking to build a business from 4-250 people. Then he founded TEDxClapham and the talks he's worked on since have turned those who delivered them into the go-to people for their subject matter.
15 million views and counting | £250m+ raised | Government legislation changed
Ales is brought in by organisations like Adobe, Bloomberg, WeTransfer, Mastercard and Amazon to do the same for them.
, Helping organisations to rebel responsibly and Be More Pirate | Author, speaker, facilitator & speaking coach for women
Alex initially joined Sam Conniff (author of Be More Pirate) as ‘Right Hand Pirate’ to build his book into a network and movement for change. In September 2020 we published a follow up book together 'How to Be More Pirate' which is a collection of stories demonstrating how individuals and businesses have applied pirate principles to solve real world challenges. I’m now ‘Captain’ of our crew, which encompasses several things: Workshops/training, growing the community, producing and co-hosting the Be More Pirate podcast, public speaking and consultancy.
Her side hustle is Pass the Mic: a 7 week training programme Alex designed to help women find the confidence to speak up. It doesn't only help with public speaking, but with interview practice, pitching for work and generally creating a more confident and compelling story about what you do.
, Founder @ Trigger Conversations
In 2016, as a Project Manager, she got bored of answering the question ‘What do you do?’ so she decided to go on a mission to find the formula for meaningful conversations, human connection and community. 6 years later, Trigger Conversations has facilitated 5000 meaningful conversation at 150+ conversation experiences for 2000+ humans. It all starts with asking great questions that activate curiosity, accelerate trust and provokes new discoveries about yourself, others and the world.
Georgie's ideas have been featured at TEDx, The Times, Time Magazine, Daily Mail, The Telegraph, City AM, NBC News. She's a fellow on the RSA, a New Entrepreneurs Foundation Fast-track fellow and mentor (CFE) and serve as an elected governance council member for Sandbox, a global network for the most inspiring innovators below 30.

About Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection
In this groundbreaking new book, Duhigg unravels the secrets of the supercommunicators to reveal the art – and the science – of successful communication. He unpicks the different types of everyday conversation and pinpoints why some go smoothly while others swiftly fall apart. He reveals the conversational questions and gambits that bring people together. And he shows how even the most tricky of encounters can be turned around. In the process, he shows why a CIA operative was able to win over a reluctant spy, how a member of a jury got his fellow jurors to view an open-and-shut case differently, and what a doctor found they needed to do to engage with a vaccine sceptic.
