    99. Johnny Quinn on Audience Engagement; Online and Offline

    It's the last of the double-digits here on episode ninety-nine of the Presentation Boss Podcast! This week we had a conversation with an expert from New Zealand on presentation skills, audience engagement and facilitation. He reached out to us after listening to the show, promising he had something to offer. And Johnny Quinn, the presentologist has loads to offer. As it turns out, this conversation made immediate change to how Kate and Thomas present their workshops and masterclasses. We cover a lot of ground in this show, delving deep into not just why audience engagement is important, but what it means, and some actual tools to achieve it. Plus, how this translates to the online medium, and some techniques around the use of PowerPoint. It really tickles all our favourites! Show your support for this episode on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/presentationboss About Our Guest Raised and educated in Ireland, Johnny Quinn arrived in Dubai in 1996 determined to make the difference between presentations that fell flat, and those that sealed the deal.

In 2015, Johnny added audiencealive.com to his worldwide portfolio and expanded his business to cover Australia and NZ.

    98. Speech Breakdown: Ignite Talk by Mark Cohen "How to Eat a Banana"

    Hold on for episode ninety-eight of The Presentation Boss Podcast. Here we're listening to a talk from the internet and pausing as we go to evaluate, make comment and highlight what the presenter does. We're looking at a new type of speech; the Ignite Talk. A 5 minute speech where every 15 seconds the slides (which are prepared by the presenter) automatically advance. And we're familiar with this talk, as Thomas has given one himself. This is a fast-paced style of speaking. And this particular example is a beautiful execution of the style. In fact, it's such a clear message and concise delivery that Thomas and Kate both use the message in their vocabulary and training. And both of them think it's one of their favourite talks of all time. It's not without flaws though, and comments are made about pace and language choices. Lots to learn and listen to here! And spoiler alert, the talk isn't really about eating bananas. Show your support for this episode on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/presentationboss What You'll Learn • Exactly what an Ignite Talk is, and that time Thomas presented one too • How opening with a story builds interest and grabs attention • The difference in preparation between a 10-minute talk, and a 5-minute talk • Being careful to align language and humour use to the audience • Use of explicit language in a talk; if and when it is ever appropriate • Why your conclusion should be the most powerful part of your speech, and how.

    97. How to Crush Your Fears and Stop Avoiding Speaking Up

    Let's kick off episode ninety-seven of The Presentation Boss Podcast! A few weeks ago, Kate had a conversation at a social function and spoke to two individuals who confessed they avoid speaking and presenting at all costs, even though they know it holds their careers back. Naturally, she asked some deeper questions and found the reasons, fears and excuses they have that have them avoiding speaking up. That list of fears is five common reasons both Kate and Thomas hear frequently. And while they are real in the mind of some people, we know that they are constructs, and sometimes just an excuse. Speaking can be hard, but holding your career back is hard too. Let us help you identify what may be going on in your head and sort out what's real and what's not. In this episode we walk through those five speaking fears, and how to crush them with a little mindset shift. No more avoiding public speaking and presentations; here's the tools to really get you over the hump of sweaty palms and sleepless nights! Show your support for this episode on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/presentationboss The Five Biggest Fears: 2:11 - "What if I'm not good?" The worry that your audience will judge you and/or you'll look unprofessional. 3:57 - "What if someone criticises me?" The fear that you'll receive negative comments and be made to feel awful. 7:17 - "But it's not necessary for me to speak; I have nothing unique to share" The idea that you need to create new and exciting ideas before you can speak at all. 10:14 - "I'm not at all qualified to speak; what right do I have to take time and attention?" The concern that you're unworthy to share your thoughts and knowledge on a given topic. 12:07 - "What if I go entirely blank when presenting?" The anxiety around not knowing how to ensure your talk is clear enough in your mind.

    94. Five Speaking Myths - Busted!

    It's a battle on misinformation in episode ninety-four The Presentation Boss Podcast! Kate and Thomas hear a lot of advice about speaking. Some of it is awesome. Some of it is average. And some of it is between entirely wrong and toxic. No doubt this advice and ideas are shared with the best of intent and comes from the right place, but we just know it to be wrong and unfortunately, unhelpful to recipients. So, in this episode, we list the five scariest myths when it comes to speaking and presentations and discuss why they don't work. And we also discuss the best alternatives you should be doing instead. And we totally have a good giggle along the way; this is a fun episode! Show your support for this episode on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/presentationboss The Myths We Bust: 00:46 - "Practice in front of a mirror" 03:17 - "You should only have 20 words per slide" and "You shouldn't have more than 10 slides" 06:54 - "Just be authentic" 09:41 - "Imagine your audience naked" 12:07 - "One day you'll no longer be nervous at all" Resources and Links • Email us: podcast@presentationboss.com.au • The Presentation Boss Podcast: https://presentationboss.com.au/podcast/ • Show your support on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/presentationboss • Join our online community: Presentation Bosses Facebook Group • Kate on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-norris/ • Thomas on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-krafft/ • Presentation Boss on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/presentationboss/

    93. Anthony Metivier on Presentation Memory Techniques

    This is a show to remember. Episode ninety-three of The Presentation Boss Podcast! Today we have back Anthony Metivier, who you may remember from when we did a breakdown of his TED Talk (that Thomas coached). He is known as The Memory Guy, for being an expert in memory, recollection and observation techniques. We know one of the greatest public speaking fears is going blank on stage, so it only seemed right to have an expert in not forgetting share his wisdom and tools on the microphone. We have a great in-depth conversation that clears up what a memory palace is and how to use it, what you can do to internalise the flow of your presentation and exactly what it takes to practice these techniques. Plus, it's a fun show because Thomas has worked with Anthony before, but this was the first time Kate had met him. We get in depth, have a laugh and learn loads. You will too! Show your support for this episode on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/presentationboss About Our Guest As a bestselling author, Anthony Metivier is the founder of the Magnetic Memory Method, a systematic, 21st Century approach to memorizing foreign language vocabulary, dreams, names, music, poetry and much more in ways that are easy, elegant, effective and fun.
