How do you make the leap from being someone who can deliver a presentation to being someone who can meet a crowd, entertain them and take them someplace where they happen to learn something valuable along the way? I know lots of people who can stand up in front of a room (or share a screen) and get through a topic without saying anything wrong. I know far fewer people who can take a room, offer valuable information wrapped in stories, and stagecraft in a way that appears effortless. How do you go from “teaching” to “SHOWTIME!”? I think it is safe to say that anyone who has that level of ease when presenting will tell you that it is anything but effortless, but how you gain that ability is not always easy to see.
This podcast features an interview with Tricia Broderick. Tricia is an accomplished, well-known thought leader in the Agile community and a fellow Certified Scrum Trainer. She is also someone who has the ability to take a room, create a sense of safety, intimacy, and fun while she is educating and collaborating with the participants to build a mutually valuable shared experience. Tricia is currently offering a class in Impactful Training and Speaking and I reached out to her in hopes that she might be able to share some thoughts and tips on how a presenter/teacher can amp up their ability at delivering a compelling, valuable fun experience for the people attending their session or class.
