Most public speakers I've seen tend to operate on the idea that it is entirely up to them to entertain the audience they are presenting to.

This unfortunately leads to some of the following problems:

1. Creates undue pressure and stress on the speaker.

2. Makes the speaker unaware of who their audience really is i.e. their background, their needs, their views etc.

3. It has the tendency to make the presentation more of a lecture which then runs the risk of boring the audience.

4. It fails to engage the audience in an interactive way that could draw out important and valuable resources that might make the entire experience special to all concerned.

It is for these reasons that I attempt to structure my talks in a very interactive manner and use the audience as the main resource for the content of my presentations.

Might it surprise you that by doing it this way I rarely need to spend more than an hour, if that, preparing for my talk?

Might it surprise you that it not only takes any stress away but that it allows me to look forward to being spontaneously myself, to relax and have a great deal of fun as my audience does most of the work for me.

Might it surprise you that when structured this way I really connect with my audience and they with me in such a way that it helps me to know exactly how to guide the conversation so that they will get what they need in each moment.

Might it surprise you that such presentations are extremely well received because that audience is alert, excited, active and has the opportunity to be heard?

In the end the audience finds such presentations very empowering because they have the opportunity to co-create it with the presenter.

Isn't that what presentations should be all about? To create a new and enlightening experience for all, even the presenter?
