A few years ago, I saw a presentation at a conference by Gary Bertwistle. As a director of a fast growing company I was very interested in the subject, but what really struck me was how absolutely flawless his 90 minute presentation was. The structure was easy to oversee, there was enough but not too much info, there were jokes, questions, anecdotes and Gary made it all look so easy.

How do they do that?

This short takes is about doing short presentations; How do we engage? How do we structure? How do we optimise video for slides? What about body language?

Who’s speaking?

We have confirmed the following speakers: Mo Fox is talking about ‘Surfing Ambiguity’: how to deal with ambiguity in life and business. Mo is an artist and speaker with a wide range of experience in both arts and the corporate world, giving her a unique perspective on both.   Robert Moorman is talking about ‘Why Most Business Video Doesn’t Work. And What To Do About It.’ Robert is creative director with 20 years of experience creating online and mobile video. He’s got a bee in his bonnet about making video more effective. Suzanne Mercier‘s talk is called “Are your female leaders skirting Leadership or stepping up?” Suzanne is founder and CEO of Liberate Leadership, a business that helps leaders shift mindsets that block success.
