Greetings from Driebergen,

I ?have a presentation tonight on using humor in presentations and speeches.

?I ?have a few things not to do: ?

??Attempt funny (and untested) ?jokes

Go for the improvisational “spar with the audience”

?Whereas I ?have a few tactics that can work even if you’re in that huge part of the population that always comes up to me after a talk and asks, “But what if I’m not funny?” ?

?These are for you: ?

Set the tone, “Own the Stage.” ?Set the scene BEFORE you even open your mouth. Even a long pause can get the audience’s attention. This makes all the difference…
