Before stepping on stage,remember that the audience is there to see you,
not to read your powerpoint.
2
Business jargon may showcase your brilliance,
but it turns off your audience;opt for plain language instead.
3
What’s better than a powerpoint?A compelling story that captures the essence of your message.

4
The first two minutes of your presentation is
‘cognitive hollowed ground.’never leave your audience guessing about your intent.
5
You purchase the mental real estate of your audience
in 20 second chunks.leave no room for ambiguity in how you want them to think, act, and feel.
6
Clarity trumps persuasion;enhance it by using analogies and metaphors.
7
Specificity matters;you earn credibility by being concrete and transparent.
8
Pay as much attention to the cadence of your speech
as you do to the tone of your voice.a deliberate ‘pause’ will punctuate the meaning of an idea.
9
Let your brand stand for the one thing
that only you can do,not what differentiates you from your competitors.
10
“Imagine” is the most elegant word in your arsenal.
use it and invite your audience to dream.
How do you describe to the world what it is that you do?
