Presenting to the Large Audience
Large groups offer special challenges to even the most seasoned speaker. A different dynamic is in play. One can suddenly seem very small standing on that large stage. Audiovisual aids get more complicated. There is a sense of lost intimacy and distance that makes it especially challenging to use the energy from the audience. This program will help participants adapt their basic style and approach to accommodate a large audience.
