awake during your presentation or training?
The image below from Ted Goff (www.tedgoff.com)
shows one way:
Here a couple of other ideas:
- Use a whistle every 2 minutes or so
- Yell at your audience
- Punish peole who sleep in with pushups,
singin or dancing in front of the group
- Let everyone pay you $100 in advance
and let them know whoever falls asleep
will not get his money back
I'm sure if you try really hard you can come
up with a couple more.
Sadly enough I've seen all of the above
(except the last one) in real-world training
or presentations.
Of course NONE of them is working!!!
The best way to make sure your audience
stays awake is to use two principles:
Passion & Participation
Be a passionate, exciting presenter
AND
let your audience participate, get involved
in your presentation.
What's your strategy for keeping your
audience awake?
Get excited,
