WHAT I DO & HOW I THINK

The 5 Rules of a great Speaker

 

1  Don't try to give a TED Talk

2  Nervous is good

3  A stage is just a piece of furniture

4  Fancy slide transitions. There is no such thing.

5  An audience is not an audience

Got your talk? Gave it already? Don't deliver it again. Not in the same way. Seriously. Ever went to a bar and shouted to the audience, "who wants to go home with me, now?". This is a genderequal, warmhearted recommendation: never do this. Give them something that makes them feel a special audience.
