On Wednesday morning, one of the programme sessions took place in the industrial setting of a former compressor hall and featured moderator and journalist Terezie Tománková. She spoke about the tools that work in communication with other people, but also about situations where communication breaks down completely. When asked what makes a good politician, she often points to Winston Churchill as an example — a leader who built much of his success on the art of rhetoric. But success also depends on the ability to argue effectively, and we should not forget authenticity either. No perfectly rehearsed phrase or gesture can replace it.
