S2 Ep2261: Teaching Tip 404 | "Your Voice Matters". Part 9 - Connect or Die. Tips for new and inexperienced speakers | Malcolm Cox

Today's tip is from my friend Anna Oliver. Anna says:
"Who is your audience? What is their age/culture/religious background? Aim to engage them by saying or doing at least one thing they would be able to relate to. Our current society is no longer interested in listening to a 30-minute talk on a topic if there is no attempt by the speaker to engage them/draw their attention.👍 Hope that helps."
Yes, it does. Have you ever sat through a talk that didn't connect? Or worse—have you ever been the one speaking and seen people zone out? Those talks feel like they go on forever.
Anna's tip is so significant we're going to take several episodes to unpack because it has several different facets. Today, we will explore one aspect of this topic. Come back next week for a second one.
