Cali Lewis Speaking Tips
Cali Lewis shows us fun, energy and enthusiasm, plus preparation and knowledge all wrapped up into one polished performance.
Here are some of the great fundamentals she employs.
- She’s relaxed, smiling, and laughing and having a good time
- Instead of being stuck behind the lectern she moves freely across the large stage.
- She’s got lots of great content which she knows well.
- She is the main focus of the presentation. Her screens are off to the side.
- She uses audience participation by having people raise their hand and repeat what she says.
- She uses her laptop for her notes and doesn’t have to look at the screens to see what is next.
A couple of negatives
1. She uses a gigantic clicker in her right hand which distracts a bit from the presentation.
2. If she used a lavaliere microphone she could gesture freely with her both hands.
In summation, if more presenters were like Cali we wouldn’t have bored audiences.
