Three techniques will help you turn simple stories into examples that will be remembered and repeated:
- Think chronologically.
- Use shorter sentences or phrases.
- Consider each visual scene.

An unforgettable presentation is “sticky.” It sticks with audience members and continues to influence long after the presentation is over. Vivid and authentic stories are central to presentations that “stick.”

Great point by @PFripp Try telling a story in your next #presentation

Your audience will not remember what you say, but what they see in their minds. Tell stories.
What is your story?

Sometimes you have a topic & have to find the right audience.
Ask yourself these questions:
1. Who will be in my audience?
2. How long will my talk be?
3. Why have they asked me to speak?
4. Consider your audience's needs and desires as you develop every aspect of your speech.

Speak when you have something to say but please remember to think before you speak.

Why are you giving a speech?
