If an unexpected disruption occurs during a presentation, there are three options: reiterate your position firmly, acknowledge the question but say it will be addressed later, or directly counter-argue the challenge. To manage the transition to questions, have noted questions from the presentation, involve the audience early on, or prime someone to ask an initial question. It's also important to make answers helpful and informative to maintain control.
Notetaking
This document provides tips and advice for note-taking while listening. It recommends focusing on the key points and main ideas rather than writing down every word. Listeners should predict parts of speech and topics in advance. Good note-taking requires actively deciding what information is important rather than passively writing everything heard. Understanding every word is less important than grasping the overall gist or meaning.
How Great Leaders Listen
We've all been there when communication breaks down. Frustration, irritation, even anger ensues as we ask: How can I get her to see things my way? How can I get him to focus on the real issue? Why is she being so difficult? What if the questions we asked ourselves instead were: What is she really saying? What is the central feeling? What is his implicit hope, intent, or fear? In this workshop, we'll play with these new questions and practice the kind of listening that will help your relationships flourish.
Questions employers ask: Why does your experience qualifies for this role?
Why does your experience qualifies for this role? Okay - It's a trick question because most likely you will launch by talking about yourself. We recommend an alternate strategy to answer this question.
The best thing about this is that - if you have prepared well for this question - you may find there are many places where this work could come in handy.
