:: ::

How do you keep your audience engaged throughout your talk or presentation?

There are basic strategies like asking questions of the audience, but there are more ways to keep your audience interested and engaged.

This is what I talk about with my guest and client, Katie Anderson.

Katie has been around the world, from Portugal to Poland to Brazil, speaking to audiences of all sizes.

In this episode, Katie and I talk about:

  • Strategies she has used that have worked well to keep audiences engaged

  • Fun things she has tried

  • The importance of storytelling, performance, and stage presence

  • A recent challenging speaking engagement that really tested her speaking skills (no surprise to me, she aced it!)

  • How attending our in-person client retreat speaking accelerator dramatically improved her skills and confidence

 

This is the first episode in our new podcast series to help you up level your in-person speaking skills.

Registration is now open for our 3-day in-person client retreat speaking accelerator coming up in February 2024 in Orlando, Florida. Get all the details and apply at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/retreat/.
