Some tips for Session Success

- Use a title that says clearly what it is. Titles drive attendance.

- Present something new and relevant to the audience.

- Use real examples. Avoid abstract terms and acronyms.

- Use storytelling and data to illustrate key points.

- Take questions during the session.

- Use quizzes and questions to keep the audience engaged.

- Field a speaker who is engaging, knowledgeable and passionate. Good speakers drive attendance.

- Be prepared to quantify costs, timeframes and outcomes with at least comparative data

- Don’t start with a slide “Who we are”

- Don’t start by assuming you know the audience. If possible ask them / have an idea of what they want to know BEFORE launching into the conversation

- Don’t stick to the script – it may be far better to answer audience questions than run the planned presentation

- Don’t read slides – tell a story

- Don’t use more than 10 slides for a 30 minute presentation and make sure at least 10 minutes left for interaction and dialogue

- Don’t avoid answering question of how much it costs or how long to deploy by saying: “it depends” – give an illustration with possible ranges and contexts
