2. Don Tapscott:
Four Principles for the open World
Don Tapscott is the chair of Maxie
Insight and has written 14 books
about aspects of the new world.
Don takes a look at our digital
connected hypercollaborative
world. Don can see the future
coming and he works to identify
the new concepts that we need to
understand in a world that is
transformed by the internet. Don is
one of the world’s leading
authorities on innovation, media,
and the economy and social impact
of technology.
3. Don’s Quote:
“To me this is not an information age. It’s an age of networked
intelligence, it’s an age of vast promise.”
5. Don captured the attention of the audience by adding
humor to a personal story he was telling. He also captured
it by relating his speech to a topic that the vast majority of
today’s population is captivated by:Technology through
computers, internet and social media.
6. Don maintained the attention of the audience
throughout his speech by his motivational speaking
on the openess of the world through new
technology of industrial social media. Don also
used videos showing how technology was
captivating the internet and the young people of
today’s society, along with a little humor.
7. Don followed the
majority of the
commandments in
his speech and
presentation. But, I
think he most
accurately followed
II,VI, &VIII.
8. The reason that I chose these
commandments is because he wasn’t afraid
to share his insight into how the world is
transferred by the internet. He has a great
dream of how technology will revolutionize
this new world, he see’s into the future. He
never flaunted anything about himself or his
company, and he never tried to sell anything
from the stage.
10. He could have related more to the audience
through humor and personal stories. Humor
would have kept the audience more alert
interested.
11. Some of the tips that were used from Garr
Reynolds and Nancy Duarte was the use of
visuals to capture the audiences attention,
and the art of storytelling.
12. What I learned:
What I have learned about delivery
from watching Don is that you have
to capture and keep the audiences
attention.You have to prepare your
presentation to be appealing and
interesting to the audience.
13. Remember to relate to your
audience.You can do this by using
humor and telling stories of personal
experiences. Get them involved in
your presentation as much as
possible.
15. Don Tapscott and Sir Ken Robinson differ greatly on their
speaking style. Don uses more factual information than Ken
does. He also dosen’t have the same technique to keep the
audience engaged and entertained.
16. Sir Ken Robinson has a special way of connecting
to his audience. He keeps their attention through
humor. He uses real life experiences through
stories to keep them laughing, this puts the
audience on a closer personal level with him.
17. Tips for Delivery of Future
Presentations

Relate – Always relate to your audience through storytelling and
personal experiences.
Knowledge – Show a clear and thorough knowledge of the topic.
Humor – Use humor to keep the audience interested and alert.
Visual – Use interesting and colorful visuals on your topic.
