World's Best Presentation Contest Winners
May 10
The World’s Best Presentation Contest winners were announced.
Some Great Presentation Advice
Mar 30The YouBlog has a post called Death by Memorization. It’s one of the best and most succinct pieces of advice I’ve read in a while about presenting to an audience. (BTW: Earlier this week I saw one of the best presentations I’ve ever seen. Prepared. Clear. Practiced. Extemporaneous. Wow.)
Want to Enter a Best Presentation Contest?
Mar 22
SlideShare is conducting a “World’s Best Presentation” contest. Do you have something you’d like to submit? Maybe you can get some inspiration from some of the presentations already submitted to the contest. Could be fun.
Great Film Speeches
Mar 12Ever want to get the pacing down just perfectly for “I love the smell of napalm in the morning”? Ever feel the need to use Michael Douglas’s “Greed, for the sake of a better word, is good” in your next presentation? Have an occasion to blend “Do you feel lucky, punk?” into your workplace sensitivity training? Well, you’re in luck.
Not Defteri posted an article that lists their favorites for the Top 10 Greatest Film Speeches and Monologues. And as a 4X bonus, they also wrote The Top 40 Greatest Conference Speeches and Keynotes. Don’t have time to watch all these? Then YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH. Oh, I just watched Jack Nicholson as Col. Nathan Jessup in a clip from A Few Good Men.
Shadow Puppets and Sales Presentations
Feb 1We did a product demo the other day and had a little issue with how the LCD projector connected to our MacBook Pro. As in, it didn’t. So, we had 10 people in the room huddled around a 15-inch screen. I wish I had seen this VW ad with the most amazing shadow puppets ever. Then, in addition to the “JT Brand” finger puppets I always carry in my bag-of-tricks, I could have dazzled the group with a few bunnies and swans on the big screen.
