You say potato... - part 1

Fellow speaker,

Different audiences demand different "adjustments" in your speaking style according to World Champion Speaker Craig Valentine:
  • Youth - Get to the story quickly - short points - get them involved early and often
  • Scientists/Engineers - Step-by-step process that are easy to follow and apply - practical examples (e.g., charts, graphs, etc.) - move quickly from emotion to logic
  • Motivational - Strong energy - show them the results early and often
Stylishly,

Tim
