GIVING TALKS
Rule 1: Communicate with excitement. Let loose; don’t act like you are wrapped in Saran Wrap. Get over the idea that you are being judged and stop saying to yourself that’s not me, so I can’t do it. If not now, then when.
Rule 2: Know your audience before giving a talk. Don’t try to give a talk on growing mushrooms when the room is full of medical doctors.
Rule 3: Don’t give a talk on a subject you have little knowledge, and experience. The audience must believe the messenger before they will believe the message.
Rule 4: Communicate with confidence. There is no difference between talking to one person and a group of people.
Rule 5: Practice, practice, practice. The more speeches you give the better you will get.
Rule 6: Have fun and smile a lot.
