Episode 94. Staying out of the (speaking) weeds
Manage episode 367104793 series 2835475
Do you ever (often, perhaps) find yourself in the ‘speaking weeds’, talking through a dense range of details, data, statistics or just circling round and round through background context … and losing your audience in the process?
It’s ok … it’s a common speaking challenge.
In today’s Speaking with Confidence episode I’m diving into why we end up in the weeds, how to get out of them and, what to do if you MUST deliver a detail-heavy, dense or technical presentation … and how to keep your audience engaged and able to hear your key messages and not drown in the detail.
Do you need to deliver technically detailed presentations? Do you find yourself with slide decks with more than 3 bullet points on them with full sentences, rather than key reminder phrases? Chances are you’re in ‘the weeds’ and this episode will help you talk to the fruits and flowers … instead 😉 Head over to the Speaking with Confidence Facebook group and let me know if you’re often presenting ‘technical’ info and would like to get out of the weeds
