063: Five Mistakes You’re Making in Your Presentations that Turn Off Your Audiences

Have you been to conferences and events and, during sessions, you see lots of people in the audience on their phones? And not using their phones to take notes, but to do other things because they’re not engaged with the speaker.

How can you keep your audience interested and off their phones?

In this episode, I share 5 mistakes I see speakers make that turn off their audiences - and specific techniques you can use instead to keep your audience engaged and learning.

This applies no matter the audience size - whether 10 people, 100, 500, 1000, or more.
