I can’t count how many times I’ve been asked, “Am I supposed to memorize my presentation?" My standard -- and slightly confusing -- answer is, “No … and yes … but mostly no.” Let me explain.
Memorizing your entire presentation is not recommended, nor is it reasonable.
In this episode, you learn:
- which elements of a presentation should be memorized and why
- what you should do with the body of a presentation
- the two most important parts of a talk
- what to do if you are going to include a long quote or other passage
- what propels you from being a speaker who speaks to one who connects with their audience and serves them well
