I love this article and am using its tips and outline this week for several presentations I am doing. While it is focused on sales, this post follows the same pattern I use when teaching my MBA students on business communication and influential presentations.

Keep this article/outline handy because it works!!

Hope this video gets your week off to a roaring start.

Want To Be A Better Public Speaker? Do What The Pros Do (Stories!)

Want To Be A Better Public Speaker? Do What The Pros Do (Stories!) | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it
For leaders at all levels, being an effective public speaker is essential for success. Here are some tried-and-true tips from the pros to help you raise your game.

 

I like this article because from the very beginning the author talks about how to give a fabulous presentation using story skills. Like -- "begin with the end in mind" and "simplify your messages" and "tell your personal stories."

 

She gives solid advice about things to remember to connect with your audience, how to avoid the perils of PowerPoint, and how to avoid sameness.

 

Good tips and insights all. And I've only mentioned a few. I wish more speakers took these ideas to heart. 

 

Read the article and get the rest of the goodies!
