Unforgettable Presentations

Ep. 287 ARE YOU TOO CLOSE?


Listen Later

Mark says, “One man’s mundane is another man’s magnificent.” We sometimes fail to see the magnificence in our stories because we’re too close to them. Today Darren and Mark explain why we may be too close, and suggest ways to broaden our perspective   

 

SNIPPETS:

• Start with a big block of clay

 

• We can be so close that we can’t identify the magnificent in our story

 

• Video-record yourself telling your story

 

• Present to a test audience

 

• Look at your story from the audience’s perspective

 

• Learn what your audience is thinking

 

• We can be too close to our favorite and signature stories

 

• Work with a qualified coach

 

• We can be so close that we miss ‘blind spots’
