Presenting

As I tweeted a couple of days ago, I never thought I would write something announcing cancelling an event due to a worldwide pandemic. And yet that was what I was asked to do earlier this week (first week of March 2020). It will be interesting to look back at this in the future and judge if it was a wise decision or an over-reaction. At present, I am 100% for Wise Decision.

These slides are from the first ever presentation I did. And yes, the presentation was at work.

<<<< Controlling The Presentation Monster (Preparing to Present)
<<<<<< How to (Not) Present – The Evil Threes

I don’t think the key to a really good presentation is the content, the structure, the delivery method, or even the main message. It’s The Story.

As I covered before, nerves before a presentation are not a bad thing. In fact, many excellent presenters/performers recognise that those butterflies of anxiety are necessary to make your presentation really sing. But you need to control the Presentation Monster. You want to take it down from lion-taming to annoyed-but-fundamentally-not-evil-cat-training.

The Oracle Groundbreakers program, and it’s previous incarnations going back to OTN and beyond, are all about me. Yes – Me!
