Don't we all want to present like Steve Jobs at the Macworld keynote? Effortlessly, comfortably, and just plain well?
OK, maybe those less interested in public speaking would rather listen to someone that is like Steve at the next two-day company meeting rather than old [fill-in-the-blank] who is the worst speaker ever!
Either way, BusinessWeek's Carmine Gallo (who I can't decide if he looks like he sounds on BNET'S Useful Commute podcasts or not - you decide) brings us "a 10-part framework you can use to wow your own audience." According to Gallo you need to:
1. Set the theme.
2. Demonstrate enthusiasm.
3. Provide an outline.
4. Make numbers meaningful.
5. Try for an unforgettable moment.
6. Create visual slides.
7. Give 'em a show.
8. Don't sweat the small stuff.
9. Sell the benefit. 10. Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse.
The full article is here. Read it for yourself or leave a copy on that co-workers chair!
And no, no one wants to speak like Fake Steve Jobs.
