FRIDAY, MARCH 13, 2009: Post #5: Hitler - one of the greatest communicator of the 20th century
Adolf Hitler, is most often remembered for his atrocities such as the antagonist responsible for starting the second World War and the massacre of 6 million Jews during the war.
However, not everyone realize that he was actually one of the best practitioner of effective communication in the 20th century. Utilizing his charm and effective communication, Hitler managed to unite the whole of Germany to embark down the road to War.
Here is one of his greatest speeches: Triumph of Will

Look at the way he delivered this speech. He delivered this speech with lots of emotion and passion, as can be seen from his facial expression. In addition, he also effectively made use of body language to help convey his message across.
It is my guess that from the way he delivered his speech, people saw confidence in Hitler. Through Hitler's speech people of Germany found hope and they believed that Hitler was the one to lead Germany to glory.
To date, there are not many people that is able to communicate as effectively as him. The closest we have to date is Barrack Obama. The video below is his inauguration address.

As we can see, there are many similarities between Obama and Hitler, effective use of emotions and body language to bring messages across. Both of them made use of effective communication to make people believe in them, to make people place their hopes on them.
I do hope that through years of practice, I will be able to be as good an effective communicator as them.

And here are the top ten people for influencing others in the 20th Century. Hitler is #2.
The Ten Most Influential People of the 20th Century
10. J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904-1967)
Physics
One of the trademarks of the 20th century, horrible though it may be, is the creation of the atomic bomb. This is the ultimate weapon of destruction which set our world into a state of fear for the latter half of the century with the cold war, as well as put an abrupt end to the Second World War. Oppenheimer was a brilliant physicist, unfortunately his legacy will always be the bomb. Oppenheimer is sort of like the real life Frankenstein; horrified at what he had created, but unable to unmake it.
9. Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)
Psychology
When Freud came along, he changed the way we thought about the way we think. He essentially created the field of psychoanalysis, working on interpreting our dreams and our subconscious. He also made a huge advancement in the liberation of sexual dialogue in society today.
8. Bill Gates (1955- )
Computers
When Gutenburg created the printing press, be revolutionized the world by allowing ideas to spread through the written page. Bill Gates could perhaps be called the Gutenburg of the information age. Though he didn’t invent the computer, be did make it accessable to almost everyone in the developed world, once again revolutionizing how we spread information around the globe.
7. Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968)
Civil Rights
He had a dream, and people responded. He was one of the most passionate speakers we had seen since the war, and he fought for a noble and just cause. He tried to repair race relations by bringing people together rather than keeping them apart. He brought down the Jim Crow laws in the states. Though his work is not yet finished, but set the people of his country on a mission of equity and justice.
6. Vladimir Lenin (1870-1924)
Politics
Communism was simply a theory on the pages of Marx and Engels’Communist Manifesto until Lenin came along with a vision to use Russia to put it into practice. His Russian Revolution in 1917 shook the world. Communism spread quickly through Eastern Europe and Asia, though the heart of it was in Russia. Lenin made a superpower out of the USSR and made an indelible mark upon the world.
5. James Watson and Francis Crick (1928- , 1916 – 2004)
Biochemistry
The number five position actually goes to two people, the scientific pair of Watson and Crick. These two biologists discovered and developed the molecular structure of DNA, the genetic material which are the blueprints to our bodies and lives. Today, the impact of their model is everywhere, from cloning, to the Human Genome Project, to genetic engineering. Biotechnology is the wave of the future, and it all began with Watson and Cricks’ double helix.
4. Mahatma Ghandi (1869-1948)
Politics
Ghandi was the leader of India during their revolt against the British Empire which made them an independent nation. Yet Ghandi’s influence far beyond this. Even today, Ghandi is a symbol of the power of peace. His non-violent movements were an inspiration to the world. It is this radical thinking that peace can make a difference that sets him apart form most other leaders of the age.
3. Henry Ford (1863-1947)
Industry
Henry Ford changed the way the world travelled with his Model T, popularizing the motor vehicle. But not only that, Ford’s major influence comes from his use of the assembly line and promotion of mass production. This is largely responsible for the industrial revolution’s massive spike at the beginning of this century and a big reason why technology and industry are at the point where they are at today.
2. Adolf Hitler (1889-1945)
Politics
Unfortunately, the most influential people in our history are not always influential in a positive way. Sometimes there are those whose influence upon the world is one of horror and evil. Adolf Hitler has become synonymous with the word evil. His great ambitions ensnared Germany and began the Second World War, one of the largest events in world history. His terrible policies of discrimination and hate led to the holocaust, one of the greatest atrocities of our time. Hitler didn’t just leave a mark on the world, he left a scar.
1. Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
Physics
Over the last couple of centuries, scientific advancement has been making some major advancements, but when Einstein came along, he really took things to a new level. Einstein’s theories revolutionized the way physicists think about nothing less than the universe itself. Time and space were suddenly connected and no longer constant. The theory of relativity would change Einstein’s field. Einstein’s influence on modern science is one that is so strong, it will cover all scientific areas for many years to come.
