Winning an argument is more than just facts and stats. It's how we weave them together to create a logical narrative. X must lead to Y.
In this 4 hour Masterclass delivered by our Head Coach Tony Koutsoumbos we will be exploring Logos. Logos is the logical side of arguing and one of the three pillars of Rhetoric & Argumentation. Too many people consider a logical argument simply one we stack with the biggest mound of stats and facts however all too often we don't do enough to link our evidence to our particular arguments.
Tony will focus on how to position evidence within a logical argument, how to build a path of logic when we have limited examples and finally the types of logic that can move an audience to understand and action (Votes)
