Garr has a brilliant review of the presentation techniques that Sir Ken Robinson uses, in his brilliant presentations. Garr claims that Sir Ken is his inspiration. Well, Garr is my inspiration ; so by default, Sir Ken now becomes my inspiration as well. Some of the points in quick summary are:- Remember you are speaking to induviduals and not to an abstract group
- Be as relaxed as possible
- Be conversational and make a connection with the room
- Know your material
- Prepare, but dont rehearse
- Leave room for improvisation
