Public Speaking Advice
Public speaking advice from a conversation between Ben Orenstein, Jeff Casimir and Katrina Owen.
Listen here: http://learn.thoughtbot.com/podcast/50
- Do remote talks via Skype with user groups or small conferences
- Don't apologize up front about how little you know or how unprepared you are
- Don't introduce yourself - people either know who are you or don't care
- Just start with the problem - why am I listening to this?
- Action right off the bat - like a James Bond movie hook people up front with something interesting
