Offers advice on encouraging audience participation during presentations and discusses techniques for telling stories, managing props, answering questions, and setting the stage with music, lighting, and signature giveaways.
Conditioned by video games, television, computers, and experiential learning activities, today's students have shorter attention spans and need to be involved. The most successful speakers are those who recognize this and adopt a more interactive approach to delivering their message. Yet, the ability to involve the audience in a more active way requires a different skill set than many speakers — veterans and novices alike — have mastered. In Involving Your Audience: Making It Active, international consultant, speaker, and writer Karen Lawson provides a practical, hands-on approach to using interactive methods to increase audience impact and ensure speaker success.
