Other points from @DouglasKruger's talk: Turn dusty #data into mini mysteries, use an 'A versus B' structure, add more ideas per sentence, and vary the #emotion. @psasouthafrica #speaking #communication #professionalspeaking

[PSASA_JHB @JhbPsasa]

To summarise @DouglasKruger's talk: turn customisation into an art form, make your audience the main character, pose the right challenging questions, and turn big ideas into simple metaphors. @psasouthafrica #speaking #communication #professionalspeaking

[PSASA_JHB @JhbPsasa]

Next #Speaker at the meeting is @DouglasKruger. Looking forward to this very much!! @psasouthafrica #speaking #communication #professionalspeaking

[PSASA_JHB @JhbPsasa]

To summarise @zoyaspeaks' talk: It starts with you, ask 'if not me, then who'. Do what you can, where you are, with what you have. And there's no finish line, just keep going, and lift while you rise. @psasouthafrica #speaking #communication #professionalspeaking

[PSASA_JHB @JhbPsasa]
