How Effective are Your Training Materials?
Do Your Training Classes Lack the "X" Factor
That is the Difference Between an Average Class
and a Great One?
Discover How to Deliver a Spectacular Training Program Whether You're Online or "Live" in Front of an Audience.
~PART ONE~
The truth is... YOU are the "X" factor.
You hold the "keys" that open the Training Success vault. What you do and say and
how you act...ultimately determines how you are "judged" by your peers
and trainees.
Want to know what you can do to ensure a classroom of "raving fans" every time?
Bruce Springsteen knows these secrets, as well as all successful performers.
In fact, it's what they do and how they do it that makes every performance exciting
and riveting. They know how to deliver an "experience" that demands and
ultimately receives... their audience's full attention.
Here are the top 10 things that you can do to transform your training
presentation into an absolute winner...
1- Before the class is scheduled, get your PR machine working.. cranking
out the “BUZZ” about your class, well before the time arrives. Explain what
they can get out of it, why it will help them, etc.,
2- Visualize your outcome before you start. See yourself speaking
and teaching. See your audience reacting positively. Feel great about what
you're about to accomplish. See the end goal – people are inspired.
3- When you begin to speak – imagine you’re just having a conversation
with another person... it has a calming effect (and you’re very good at it –
you’ve been doing it all your life).
4- Frame your talk. Tell them what you’re going to tell them. Tell it to them.
And then tell them what you just told them. It helps to keep everyone focused.
5- Your Voice. Ahh, your voice. The most powerful communication weapon
you have. Do you use it well? Things like melody, pace, volume, tone and pitch...
can make you or break you on the music scene. When you use all 5 components correctly, you will have total control over your voice and the sounds that come out when you speak.
Your voice can control the high and lows, can get attention, can cause people to sway (monotone), move back (loud) and draw them in (soft). When you can master how and when to control your voice – you’re on your way to becoming a great speaker.
Well that's it for now. Be sure to look for my email next week that will have the
remaining 5 presentation "transformers" that can help "ZEST UP" your presentation.
The last 5 are critical. Don't miss them.
