Show up early

Tell the audience what the problem is, 
who cares, and what the solution is

PGP:  Particular - general - particular

Leave a trace:  Give everyone in the 
audience at least a piece of paper

Think about what your audience reads

We can usually do better than slideware; 
use a color image now and then

Audiences are precious and deserving of 
respect, and you had better act that way

Use humor, but no set piece jokes

Watch the use of "he" and other 
masculine pronouns

If you believe the material, let the 
audience know it

Finish early

Outside the meeting:  Practice, practice, 
practice

Outside the meeting:  Get better content
