Just a little tip for those who attended a talk; gave a talk; or were one of the panelists. When you're writing a LinkedIn post start with the idea, lesson or insight first before you were "so privileged/honored/excited to..." Most readers probably stop reading when you begin that way. Start with the value you're giving to your audience rather than the kudos you're giving to yourself.

How do you know you've landed your talk? When your words are remembered long after you've stopped talking. Bonus tip: Engage your audience throughout, and throw in a few corny Dad jokes (those collective groans/chuckles/ eye rolls go a long way in leaving an impression!) Thank you, @Arel Moodie for a brilliant keynote and sharing your ALIGN framework.

Talking helps you organize your thoughts. But LISTENING helps your thoughts land. If you don't feel like you're connecting with your team right now, are just talking into the void, or they just "don't get" what you're trying to get across...consider talking less this week and listening more. You might be surprised to find the answer on how to break through.

A strong intro sets the tone — but it doesn’t have to come from you. If you’ve got someone to introduce you, let them do the heavy lifting. If not, keep it short, simple and confident. Your audience came to hear your message — not your résumé.

The secret to public speaking? Expose yourself. Show an audience the parts you keep hidden. That feel vulnerable to put on display. I've had crowds in tears when I've bared it all. Because that's the power of being totally exposed. The ability to leave an impression an audience won't be able to get out of their heads. Hope this helps.

Most presenters don’t lose the audience because of what they say. They lose them because they never ask anything of them. Talking for an hour is easy. Holding attention for an hour is not. The difference is whether you create space for your audience to think. Use open questions to pull attention back: “Where does this resonate for you?” Then leave space. It brings people back to the conversation with you, not just in front of you. If you're interested in brushing up your sales skills, here's information about the next London workshop on 8th January. https://lnkd.in/e4s8ZpZh

You're posting 5 times a week but your message is still blurry. The problem isn't consistency. It's how you show up. The S.P.E.A.K framework fixes that. 1. Your audience knows exactly what you do 2. Your posts attract the right people 3. Your message sticks in people's minds Which letter resonates most with you?

I'm excited to share something a little different today - a “15 Questions” video! In this quick-fire on the spot chat, I open up about how I prepare for a big talk, calm my nerves before stepping on stage, and get in the zone to deliver a fantastic experience for my audience. A huge thank you to Frey. for keeping me feeling confident and polished, and to PRHK for co-hosting this special evening. I can’t wait for you to watch - I hope it helps with your own preparation routine before stepping on stage! 🌟

Your audience doesn’t need your company’s dictionary, they need your empathy. So next time you’re writing a caption, email, or ad… read it out loud. If it sounds like a conversation you’d never have with your friend, delete it and start again.

4moGahhhhhh! Yes. I have to say this to clients all the time. Who cares where you went. Tell me what is in it for me. Unless… it’s the Oscars or something. But most events are not known. This also applies to how events promote the content. I have never heard of the speaker. But if I like their idea? Wow! Tell me more!!
