In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

  • What makes a good teacher and what makes a bad teacher. 
  • Knowing what to teach and how to teach it to your specific audience. 
  • Making your information stand out and be remembered – organization is key.
  • Involving your audience in your lesson. 

 

Key Takeaways:

  • There is no substitute for experience. You have to have more than “knowing some things” you have to have seen it in action. 
  • You want to know your audience and shoot to challenge them a little bit. In order to do that, you have to be able to read the room and know where they are at in their training. 
  • Choose a presentation technique that works for you. Develop your own style, try a few things, and see what you like. 
  • If you really want to make an important point, slow down and call attention to it. 

 

“If you master your material, you really know what you’re talking about, you have practiced your presentation, it fits in the right time frame that you have to present, you’re comfortable talking about that material, and you’re comfortable if people don’t necessarily believe what you’re saying, or they have different opinions about how to do the things we are going to talk about…there are tons and tons of things that you can do to give a good presentation.” —  Jerry Bradshaw
