How to Craft a Magnetic Presentation Speech And Win Over Your Audience

How to craft a magnetic presentation speech and win over your audience

Let’s face it: when preparing for a presentation speech – there’s no shortage of advice available.

There are several books, blog articles, and YouTube videos available that will teach you how to tell captivating tales, create eye contact, use hand gestures, and more.

This is great because when we communicate more effectively, everyone benefits. After all you have probably sat through at least a meeting or lecture that completely bored you to death because nothing in the presentation resonated with you.

Even with so much information accessible, I still see one major communication error done every day. It is as simple as this: most individuals communicate incorrectly.

What do I mean?

Too many of us write our scripts, create our decks, or assemble our talking points before considering our audience and what they require or anticipate from our communication. This has major ramifications. When your audience doesn’t feel like your words are relevant to them, when they don’t comprehend what you’re trying to communicate, or, worse still, when they don’t care about your ideas, your beautifully planned presentations, agenda, or jokes fall flat.

And if you are trying to sell or raise funding that could mean a whole lot of wasted effort, time, and money. Listen to the podcast to discover how you avoid this issue and drive growth instead.
