The Room Where It Happens: How to Stand in Front of Other People and Inspire Them

Overview
You have probably sat in a room at some point and been truly inspired by the person speaking, and you have also probably wanted to get up and walk out of the room because the speaker was so bad! But what is the difference, and can you learn how to be the inspiring speaker? How do you get to be in the room where it happens? This class will review real-world tools for speakers in all areas to develop their content and materials, to go through the process of owning the room, and how to deliver content that will inspire people. How to you format materials so they are usable to the audience? How do you effectively (and legally) use videos? Or audience polling? What should you to on the day of your presentation? How do you handle people who want to disrupt you? We will cover all of these topics and more, and for each one, we will be using popular music songs to illustrate and remember the lessons!
