Description

The best presenters seem to be able to keep audiences fascinated. Is that just because they have great material to work with, or are there lessons we can all use in our presentations? We tend to learn by example, and that results in a particular style becoming the norm in a given environment. What are the risks of deviating from that norm, and is it worth trying? The areas we'll cover include: - constructing your story - understanding what the audience needs - relying on the technology (or not) - rehearsing - the small stuff (that makes a big difference)
