Rules For Public Speaking
1. Slow down you idiot.
2. Breathe
3. Look at people in the eye and don't get tunnel vision.
4. Control the frame advance of your own Powerpoint presentation to make your points hit home.
5. When you're talking slow enough, take it down one more notch.
6. Know your info, but don't have every sentance prewritten in your head.
Okay, I'm beating myself up a bit, but my sales meeting presentation today was only so-so. Pretty much all the other editors had slick video presentations or a shtick (Cote put on a white lab coat, crazy wig, and wacky glasses and pretended to be a Swedish sociologist called Dr. Humpfinger.)
Oh well, that's over.
