audience instructions
DESCRIPTION
The audience can make or break a presentation. A good, enthusiastic group gives the speaker responses and energy that lead to a better presentation. Audiences with individuals who have their own agendas and don’t respect the speaker’s efforts, can disrupt an otherwise, good presentation. This can lead to, frustration for the presenter, a less than stellar performance, and the audience not GETTING the speaker’s message. To help the speaker and the audience, I’ve compiled a set of Audience Instructions.TRANSCRIPT
