Start with a Great Title and the Presentation Writes Itself Jul 21, 2017

Show notes

In this podcast, we cover the importance of starting your presentation design with a great title. If you start with a narrow and "audience-focused" title, the entire presentation will practically write itself. The title also helps the presenter focus the content on just the most important things that the audience needs to know. This week, we have two new TechFinds which allow you to reduce the presentation peripherals and make delivering your slideshows more convenient.

10 Ways to Reduce Public Speaking Fear (Part 1) Jul 10, 2017

Show notes

One of the fears of public speaking that comes up the most is, "I'm afraid I will lose my train of thought," or "I'm afraid I will forget what I'm going to say." So in the first session of Fearless Presentations®, our instructors combine the teaching aspect of delivering the 10 tips with a memory skill that helps people improve their memory dramatically in just a few minutes. When participants first experience this skill, they are often amazed at the "magic" that they have just witnessed, but in reality, the memory technique that we teach has been around for over 1000 years. It's just been lost in our modern society. With technology at our fingertips, we don't challenge our brains the way that our ancestors did. The potential is still there inside all of us, but it takes a little practice to tap into this hidden potential. However, when I say "a little practice," that is exactly what I mean. Most class members are able to improve their memory dramatically in less than ten minutes. So, it is an easy skill to master very quickly.
