We live in the age of engagement. It’s important in social media. It’s vital in person. It’s critical in presentations. But too often, we structure our presentations as long stretches of talking and short stretches of interaction. We have it backward.

This video will show you how to get your audience engaged earlier and how to keep the audience engaged throughout your presentation.
