Transform Your Public Speaking With Humor
Flat, boring presentations aren’t simply unsatisfying— they’re ineffective.
A checked-out audience won’t care about or remember your message, product or pitch.
Well-placed, authentic comedy connects you with your audience and keeps them engaged throughout your talk. Humor not only makes you more relatable, it allows you to emphasize key points in a way they’re more likely to be remembered, and allows you to lighten up heavier subject matter in a way that puts your audience at ease.
Where there is laughter, there is emotional connection.
Where there is emotional connection, there is trust.
And where there is trust, there is ACTION.
In this entertaining and interactive talk, comedian and Emmy-winning Hollywood comedy writer, Beth Sherman, shares the key principles of comedy writing, and how they can be applied to your speaking engagements to make you and your presentations funnier and more engaging.
