Slide 23:Ken Robinson's "Do Schools Kill Creativity" speech on Ted has 13 filler noises "umms" or "errs" in his first two minutes. It's been seen by over 35 million people, it's rated as one of the top ted talks and my bet is that no one, apart from me and other public speaking nerds, has even noticed the umms. They will be too busy laughing and enjoying Ken Robinson's talk (I was going to write speech but it's more like a chat).

Approximately one in four Year 4 to Year 9
Australian students (27%) reported being bullied
every few weeks or more often.
Lack of a shared definition of bullying can hamper
finding lasting solutions.
Students may not report bullying to the school
because they fear not being believed or making things
worse.
Approximately one in five young school students
reported experiencing online bullying in any one year.
Hurtful teasing was the most common bullying
behaviour reported, followed by having hurtful lies
told about them.
In 85% of bullying interactions, peers are present
as onlookers, and play a central role in the bullying
process.
84% of students who were bullied online were also

72% of schools reported managing at least one
incident of online bullying in the previous year.
32% of Year 5s and 29% of Year 8s reported

others in person.
Students 10 to 15 years of age are the most

The national
definition of bullying
for Australian
schools is the
starting point for
bullying prevention
Bullying is an ongoing and deliberate
misuse of power in relationships
through repeated verbal, physical
and/or social behaviour that intends
to cause physical, social and/or
psychological harm. It can involve an
individual or a group misusing their
power, or perceived power, over one
or more persons who feel unable to
stop it from happening.
Bullying can happen in person or
online, via various digital platforms
and devices and it can be obvious
(overt) or hidden ...
As global leaders, we need to manage teams working in several locations and often from different cultures.
My name is Marianne Dupuis and I've been coaching since 2010, with a true passion for cross cultural topics. This derives both from my experience leading multicultural teams myself for more than 2 decades and from enjoying living abroad for about that same time too.

WRITE TO LEARN
Recall speakers whose performances you have enjoyed. For instance, you may have had an instructor who held your attention from the moment you entered the classroom. Perhaps you appreciated a speaker at a club meeting or special event. What made these speakers effective communicators? List the qualities and actions that helped these speakers to be effective. For instance, consider these questions: What did the speaker do to get your attention at the beginning? What did the speaker provide as visual support so you could better understand the message?
Focus on Presentations
Read the sample presentation slide on the next page and answer these questions:
· Who is the intended audience?
· What does the title contribute to the slide?
· Why is the information in the notes not covered in the slide?
· Does the slide need animation? Why or why not?
What If?
· The writer had intended to deliver the presentation only online?
· Readers were unfamiliar with America’s economic situation?
· All audience members were experts in accounting?

For Elizabeth, a successful presentation is multifaceted: “A good presentation immediately provides an overview of where the presentation is going. It involves some sort of visual aid as well so that a listener is engaged both aurally and visually. Finally, I think anecdotes always make a presentation more interesting.”
When preparing a presentation, Elizabeth meticulously researches and outlines her material. “Research is such a key element, especially when preparing for a hearing before a judge. You need to be prepared to address any and all of the judge’s concerns. After researching, I outline my presentation. Following an outline ensures that I’m clear, concise, and that my audience can follow my reasoning.”
“After outlining, it’s practice, practice, practice,” says Elizabeth. “I like to start rehearsing in a room by myself, getting comfortable with the material and my arguments. It also helps me ...

Cross-Cultural Communication
Culture is a shared set of beliefs and experiences common to people in a specific
setting. The setting that creates a culture can be geographic, religious, or
professional. As you might guess, the same individual can be a member of many
cultures, all of which may play a part in the interpretation of certain words.
The different and often “multicultural” identity of individuals in the same
organization can lead to some unexpected and potentially large
miscommunications. For example, during the Cold War, Soviet leader Nikita
Khruschev told the American delegation at the United Nations, “We will bury you!”
His words were interpreted as a threat of nuclear annihilation. However, a more
accurate reading of Khruschev’s words would have been, “We will overtake you!”
meaning economic superiority. The words, as well as the fear and suspicion that the
West had of the Soviet Union at the time, led to the more alarmist and sinister
interpretation.Garner, E. (2007, December 3). Seven barriers to great
communication. Retrieved July 2, 2008, from Hodu.com: http://www.hodu.com/
barriers.shtml.
Miscommunications can arise between individuals of the same culture as well.
Many words in the English language mean different things to different people.
Words can be misunderstood if the sender and receiver do not share common
experiences. A sender’s words cannot communicate the desired meaning if the
receiver has not had some experience with the objects or concepts the words
describe.Effective communication. (2004, May 31). Retrieved July 2, 2008, from
DynamicFlight.com: http://www.dynamicflight.com/avcfibook/communication.
It is particularly important to keep this fact in mind when you are communicating
with individuals who may not speak English as a first language. For example, when
speaking with nonnative English-speaking colleagues, avoid “isn’t it?” questions.
This sentence construction does not exist in many other languages and can be
confusing for nonnative English speakers. For example, to the question, “You are
coming, aren’t you?” they may answer, “Yes” (I am coming) or “No” (I am coming),
depending on how they interpret the question.Lifland, S. (2006). Multicultural
communication tips. American Management Association. Retrieved July 2, 2008, from
