SMALL ROOM PRESENTATIONS ARE EVERYWHERE!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As you read these words, someone somewhere is pushing back a chair, pushing down fear, and standing up. She is walking up to the front of the room with a message in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She knows her hope<\/a>.  She has a goal<\/a>.  She knows that her words move things<\/a>.  She knows her audience<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her posture and facial expressions send information before she speaks a word. She pauses. And begins. As she speaks, she guides the attention of an audience toward a specific idea. Like millions of others around the world, she is giving a big presentation in a small room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small-room presentations occur constantly and globally.  The small room contains 3 to 30 people meeting in person. It might be the same number of people meeting virtually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  3. The board room of a large corporation where there is a constant call to beat past goals and increase investor profit.<\/li>
  4. The boss\u2019s office where the challenge is to offer help without threatening power or wasting time.<\/li>
