The document discusses strategies for gaining and maintaining audience attention when presenting. It describes common problems like audiences continuing conversations when the presenter wants to start or using devices. It recommends projecting confidence physically and with your voice. Simply waiting in silence for 20 seconds will usually quiet a room. Under no circumstances should you start speaking while the audience is talking. You can ask for full attention or involve the audience in discussions to keep them engaged. Making the content compelling is also important to holding attention.

![Presentation Inspiration KineticFuture: Leadership Communications Coaching 5194300-407670<br />The Audience is Ignoring me! <br />There is nothing more soul destroying than being ignored by your audience. The worst story I’ve come across recently is a French company who not only carried on talking when the speaker needed to begin but then had a blazing row between themselves across the table. What’s worse, this happens on a regular basis. Do send me an email with your story if you can beat this! <br />In every course we run, even senior leaders raise this issue. Three common day to day problems include: people carrying on talking when the speaker wants to start, Blackberry and computer usage during the meeting and private conversations kicking off. <br />If you don’t have strategies to tackle these situations you will fail to meet your objectives. Firstly, people aren’t listening so what’s the point. Your status and gravitas hit the floor so they are unlikely to have confidence in you. And frankly it’s bad for morale. <br />So, what can you do about it? <br />,[object Object]](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/theaudienceisignoringme-12681439416015-phpapp02/85/The-Audience-Is-Ignoring-Me-1-320.jpg)

Remembering My Words
David Cameron delivered a make-or-break speech to his party conference without using a prepared script, relying only on some reminder notes. The document provides tips for presenting without scripts, including preparing key points, using visual aids as prompts, writing a basic structure and talking points, identifying highlight points and trigger words, rehearsing while standing, and boiling the presentation down to 4 key words as a comfort prop if needed. Effective preparation and rehearsal can allow one to present without heavily relying on written scripts or notes.
Points Of Pain
The document discusses how understanding a person's "points of pain" or motivations driven by reducing pain is key to successfully pitching ideas. It recommends asking questions like "What's the priority?", "Why is that a priority?", and "How is that affecting you?" to probe further and uncover the real drivers beyond just stated objectives. Doing so can help sell ideas, win business, and develop solutions that really address what matters to stakeholders.
Making It Real
This document discusses ways to make presentations more engaging by making ideas and concepts more concrete and relatable for audiences. It recommends finding ways to "make it real" such as using examples, demonstrations, role plays, videos, or visual aids to bring key ideas to life. Examples mentioned include a drama school bringing students to demonstrate their program, a retailer showing a comedy video about poor service, and a design company filming a patient's hospital experience to show the need for workflow changes. Making concepts more tangible and experiential can help audiences better understand, relate to, and remember ideas.
Keeping It Simple
This document provides tips for keeping presentations simple and easy to understand. It recommends using short, logical sentences that group related words and ideas together into complete thoughts, without separating the subject from the main verb. Long, complex sentences are harder for audiences to understand and for presenters to deliver effectively. The most important task for trainers is to increase presenters' confidence by encouraging simple, clear sentences and organization of ideas.
7 Influencing Misconceptions
This document discusses 7 common misconceptions about influencing others. The misconceptions are that influencing is manipulation, a one-way process, best done through hard selling, must always succeed, compromise is weakness, the best argument wins, and being right is enough. The document promotes a new coaching module on group influencing from KineticFuture leadership communications coaching.
20 Ways To Lose At A New Business Presentation
This document lists 20 ways to lose a new business presentation. Some key ways include failing to understand customers' needs, not analyzing the audience, giving a boring presentation without differentiating yourself, having a long presentation with detailed slides, and not rehearsing or planning for questions and answers. The overall message is that careful preparation, understanding the customer, creativity, and professionalism are important for successful business presentations.
Adding Variety & Vitality
This document provides tips for changing the pace of a presentation to keep an audience engaged. It recommends alternating between fast and slow techniques to suit the material and help convey key points. Specific techniques mentioned include repeating short phrases to accelerate pace, using connecting words at the start of sentences, strings of statistics, vivid metaphors, planned pauses to emphasize important points, and rhetorical questions answered quickly. The overall goal is to add variety through changing pace so the audience can focus and think, rather than become bored.
Avoid Mismatching
The document discusses avoiding mismatching your energy level, body language, words, and tonality with your audience in order to build rapport and have more influence. It provides an example where the author mismatched with a group of nuclear engineers by being too energetic after a fast-paced meeting, which caused them to not listen and resulted in being fired from the sponsorship group. To be effective, one should be aware of and try not to mismatch with their audience's communication styles and behaviors.
Breaking Bad News W Ith Integrity
The document provides coaching advice for effectively communicating difficult news to employees, such as announcing job losses. It recommends that leaders (1) show empathy and emotion to avoid alienating staff, (2) maintain confidence through body language and tone of voice to inspire trust in the future plan, and (3) keep the message simple while providing detailed information for those affected.
Can You Change Your Influencing Style
This document discusses different styles of influencing others and suggests trying a new style for a day. It presents a scenario where the reader wants to change a travel policy and asks which influencing style they would prefer. The four styles described are directive, persuasive reasoning, collaborative, and inspiring. Each style has pros and cons - for example, the directive style can be speedy but seem dogmatic, while the inspiring style can be engaging but appear abstract. The document recommends that if you recognize your preferred style, you should try using an alternative style for a day to see the different responses it elicits and become more comfortable using different styles.
Consultative Selling In The New Economy
1) This document discusses consultative selling in the current economic climate, noting that customers are reluctant to buy despite having money, and need certainty of success.
2) It emphasizes the importance of thinking about how to make customers successful at all times, and provides suggestions for consultative selling such as understanding the client's business strategy, having a clear understanding of the key client need, using influence strategies to build relationships with key players, demonstrating business value and proof points, and taking risks to keep the sales process fresh.
3) Success requires proving expertise and value to the client throughout the entire process, from program development to procurement.
Contagious Messages
This document provides tips for creating contagious messages that spread ideas effectively. It discusses how catchy phrases stick in people's minds through simplicity and emotion. Examples are given of memorable slogans from advertising. A process is then outlined to brainstorm contagious messages, including defining the core idea, desired emotion, and call to action, then drawing inspiration from bold organizations and campaigns. The process helps distill ideas down to one or a few memorable words that effectively spread your message.
Creating Rapport
This document provides tips for creating rapport with an audience during presentations or meetings. Some key strategies include researching the audience to understand their needs and perspectives, using language and examples that they can relate to, finding shared experiences to build connections, matching their body language and communication styles, and connecting with individuals in the audience. Creating rapport early on, such as at the beginning of a presentation, is important for engaging the audience and setting yourself up for success.
Credit Crunch Check Your Communications
This document provides advice for leaders on improving communications during difficult economic times. It recommends conducting a "Credit Crunch Check" to evaluate how communications need to shift. Specifically, leaders should ensure their communications demonstrate confident leadership, have a clear and inspiring vision that reflects current needs, use down-to-earth language that sells relevant benefits, and connect with the audience in a way that will inspire change or win business. Leaders are advised to thoughtfully evaluate these areas of their communications and make adjustments as needed.
Differentiate Or Die In 2009
This document provides advice for creating differentiated and compelling presentations in 2009. It suggests challenging oneself by seeking new insights into situations using different techniques, and presenting insights in compelling ways suited to audiences. It questions whether messages are hiding behind too much padding or if presentations rely too much on PowerPoint. It encourages using physical mediums, demonstrations, videos or just talking to engage audiences. The biggest differentiator is oneself, so presenters should work on being the best communicators and inspiring audiences rather than just turning up. It recommends resources for further inspiration on phenomenal presentations that make ideas stick.
Help! I Need To Boost My Confidence
The document provides tips for boosting confidence when presenting or speaking publicly. It recommends identifying a physical "psychological gesture" used by someone who embodies the confidence and qualities you want to portray. The tips instruct the reader to imitate this person's movements and mannerisms, then select one key element to focus on and exaggerate. With practice using the gesture, it can help mentally trigger feelings of confidence when needed, such as before a presentation. The technique is based on acting methods and was successfully used by a client to transform their performance in a difficult role play scenario.
How Do I Present At The Big Cheese Meeting
This document provides tips for effectively presenting at meetings with senior leaders or boards. It advises adopting confident body language like making eye contact, sitting up straight, and using open gestures. Speak with a lower pitch, slower pace, and make points clearly and concisely. Choose moments to interject by acknowledging the current speaker and asking others for their views to continue the discussion. With practice of these techniques one can improve their presence and ability to effectively communicate at important meetings.
How To Respond To The Audience
This document provides tips for responding to an audience that seems unengaged or negative during a presentation. It recommends maintaining confidence and energy, asking an open question to get feedback, listening carefully and adapting the presentation based on that feedback. Some specific suggestions include changing the pace, style or content to better engage the audience and read the room to understand what approach might work best. The overall message is to remain flexible and interactive with the audience in order to turn an unreceptive situation into a more positive experience.
Influencing Groups
This document discusses techniques for influencing groups when presenting. It recommends thinking about how to influence the group rather than just presenting well. It suggests physically mapping the room to understand who the key people are and their needs. The document also advises choosing an influencing style that matches the situation and people, and being able to change styles during the presentation. Finally, it stresses the importance of reading the room and noticing signals like interest, disagreement, or disengagement to engage people throughout.
Its Not My Presentation!
This document provides tips for presenting a document you did not prepare yourself. It recommends:
1) Establishing ground rules with your boss that people must see the presentation materials in advance and that ideally presenters write their own material.
2) If unable to change policies, insist on understanding the objectives, key messages, and timing for each part of the presentation before presenting.
3) Do not simply read the slides but talk around them, reordering slides and using your own examples and language.
4) Really believe in what you are saying and use strong presentation techniques like eye contact and voice variation to convince the audience during your talk.

The Audience Is Ignoring Me!
- 2. The most powerful thing you can do is to get into position, look confident and simply wait. Your silence will quieten the room in less than 20 seconds. There’s no need to look grumpy just be neutral. Then when the room is quiet begin. Under no circumstances start speaking while they are talking.
- 3. You can call the meeting to order by projecting your voice clearly saying “Good morning. Shall we begin?” You could also use the name of the most senior person in the room and ask them the direct question. Often they will bring the room to order.
- 4. You can ask the meeting chair to ask people to turn their phone or computer off. I have also asked people “Can you give me your undivided attention just for 5 minutes. I really need everyone’s input on this key point. Then if it’s not valuable or relevant feel free to get back on the phone”.
- 5. If people start private conversations stop talking, look at the person and wait for them to go quiet or ask them a question using their name. Try building in discussion time and lots of interaction for talkative audiences during the session and let them know it’s on the agenda up front.
- 6. Make sure your structure and content is compelling and relevant for the audience so they want to listen from start to finish.
