Three techniques will help you turn simple stories into examples that will be remembered and repeated:
- Think chronologically.
- Use shorter sentences or phrases.
- Consider each visual scene.

An unforgettable presentation is “sticky.” It sticks with audience members and continues to influence long after the presentation is over. Vivid and authentic stories are central to presentations that “stick.”

Great point by @PFripp Try telling a story in your next #presentation

[Patricia Fripp @PFripp]

Your audience will not remember what you say, but what they see in their minds. Tell stories.
What is your story?

@District36Toast We're right now brainstorming ideas as we head into summer, and with that comes summer storms. What kind of solutions have clubs within your district come up with if there are power outages or large disruptions in internet?

[Washtenaw Toastmasters @WashToastmaster]

@D83Toastmasters We've been a brick and mortor club and switched to Zoom in February.

Thank you @PFripp. Wise words to ponder as we prepare for our next #speech

[Patricia Fripp @PFripp]

Sometimes you have a topic & have to find the right audience.
Ask yourself these questions:
1. Who will be in my audience?
2. How long will my talk be?
3. Why have they asked me to speak?
4. Consider your audience's needs and desires as you develop every aspect of your speech.
