Polished performers are the best examples to observe in order to improve presentations. Two such polished performers are Vic Brazil<\/a> and Anand Swaminathan<\/a>. They can be heard over at feminem.com<\/a> discussing lots of presentation tips but with a particular focus on women presenting. Whoever you are, there’s loads to learn from their chat.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Some of the tips-<\/p>\n

be yourself, the audience really value that<\/p>\n

present the image of yourself you want the audience to have<\/p>\n

ensure you are introduced in the way you would like to be<\/p>\n
