23 Tips From Comedians to Be Funnier in Your Next Presentation (via the book ...David Nihill
As they clock up the 10,000 hours that Malcolm Gladwell says make a master, comedians learn a lot the hard way. Here are their top tips so you don't have to.
1. Use the Rule of 3
2. Draw Upon Your Real-Life Experiences
3. Identify the Key Part and Get There Fast
4. Find the Funny in Pain Points
5. Think Fails and Firsts
6. Listen and repeat.
7. Think Fun Over Funny
8. Screen Your Jokes
9. Tell a Joke
10. Like Jerry Seinfeld Does, Use Inherently Funny Words
11. Paint a Picture for Others to See
12. Do Something Memorable
13. Jokes are: 1, 2 … 4!
14. Use the Art of Misdirection
15. Put the Word the Joke Hinges on at the End of the Sentence
16. Use Tension
17. Avoid Ever Going Blank Onstage
18. Use Your Hands
19. Use Metaphors and Analogies Combined With Hyperbole (Exaggeration)
20. If the Energy Is Down, Bring It Up
21. Trust Your Funny Bits
22. Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance
And last but not least, from Irish comedian Dylan Moran:
23. Don’t Rely on Potential
“Don’t do it! Stay away from your potential,” Moran says. “You’ll mess it up. It’s potential; leave it. Anyway, it’s like your bank balance–you always have a lot less than you think.”
As Mark Twain said, “The human race has only one really effective weapon and that is laughter.” That type of arms race may be one worth all our time. Most presentations are really boring. With applications of these tips, yours will not be.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
