The ticket to communicating effectively, with communications consultant, Carmine Gallo (who's not afraid of blowing his own trumpet at every opportunity - but how else do you convince these Stanford Business School grads that they are indeed learning from the best?).
Carmine suggests the following techniques for more powerful and engaging presentations -
- unlocking your passion to persuade
- appealing to the heart not the head
- use the discipline of the 140-character Twitter to get your message across
- decluttering your presentations so the message is clear and singular, like Steve Jobs would
- employing narrative theory to tell the story, like the battle between good and evil
Because seeing awesome presenters in action - and unpicking what they're doing well - is one thing, developing the same skills is a whole lot more challenging.
