Quick public speaking tip … Coping with short attention spans

We all have short attention spans. This is exacerbated in these days of communication delivered in truncated, rapid-fire bytes.

So you have to set up your presentations so that you do something frequently to keep attention.

Change your delivery style.

Support your words with a new visual.

Challenge with an activity for audience involvement.

Tell a story. Whatever techniques you use, introduce them often and vary them.

Each will have its own impact, but make sure that impact supports your chosen image and message.
