702 - Tips to Energize Your Presentations


Tips to Energize Your Presentations

by: Sandra Schrift


?There can be no knowledge without emotion. We may be aware of a truth, yet until we have felt its force, it is not ours. To the cognition of the brain must be added the experience of the soul.?

? Arnold Bennett (1867-1931)
Ask yourself, ?What is the audience feeling?? and ?How would I like him/her to feel?? You need to be aware of:

How frequently you use positive emotional words.
How you moderate the use of negative emotional words.

Here are some ways that you can help your audience interact with each other.

Room set-up. Be sure people face each other so they can talk to each other. Use round tables, rather than theatre or classroom style.
Don?t permit cliques. Get your participants to sit with new people. Be innovative in your approach to seat people differently. Some examples: Use a colorful post it, group by hair color, or place cards.
Use icebreakers. You can ask your audience to say a word that describes their week. Give them something else to talk about other than business when the meeting breaks.
Setup small groups or dyads to discuss issues. This technique will get your participants to brainstorm with their partner or group.

Coaching point: Forced interaction engages people. What can be more fun?
