Holding Audience Attention during Presentations - Clues from the TV News
Learn how to hold your audience's attention during presentations - simple tips that work from a TV News expert.
Would you like to be more confident delivering a presentation … to potential clients? … to the Board? … to your staff?
Perhaps you’re plucking up courage to give more presentations this year — or keen to polish up your business messages ahead of a golden sales opportunity?
John Young is a former BBC presenter and journalist who will reveal the formula used by broadcasters to capture attention, hold it, keep to time … and ensure that audiences are enlightened rather than confused by what they see and hear. After all — if journalists lose their audience, they’re out of a job!
John’s built a reputation in the business community for delivering energetic, engaging and fun workshops and presentations, with instantly implementable take-aways. His clients include the NHS, EasyJet and American Express, as well as many SMEs.
No theories, no waffle, no complicated slides — just in-plain-sight tips and tricks that will leave you feeling inspired and raring to reboot your own presentations.
Guest Speaker - John Young
For more than thirty years, John Young presented and reported the TV news on the BBC.
He now helps businesses by revealing in eye-watering detail how journalists communicate
complicated things to their audiences so quickly and clearly — so that businesses can
communicate better with their clients, leads, staff and stakeholders. And as a result, build trust — and build profits.
John’s larger clients have included EasyJet, American Express, Gatwick Airport, Network Rail, the NHS and the Department for Business and Trade. But he enjoys working with individuals and SMEs just as much, if not more, because it can be so much easier to have fun.
