Christopher S. Penn's Awaken Your Superhero: What Martial Arts Can Teach Us About Improving Presentations

  • Ken Okel · 1 year ago
    I highly encourage clients to have an audio or video record of their presentations. Often an ad-lib will contain a moment of brilliance and you want to make sure that you don't lose it.

    I find a post it note or cocktail napkin is a good size for some key presentation points.

    Some of the best talks I've ever heard have had a quality of freshness even though I know the presenter has give the same speech many times.

    A great way to make sure you;re making sense is to ask the audience if they have questions periodically. Don't just wait til the end.

    And don't say 'Did that make sense?' ... nobody is going to say no, for fear of looking dumb :-)
