The information that you provided in this short, but rather useful video, was phenomenal. Thank you so much

Thank you so much!! I was struggling to create an opening to my presentation and this gave me some new ideas on how to start it! :)

She gives wonderful suggestions on how to set the tone- great job!

Hello, Deborah and thank you for sharing your insights on presentations. I appreciate your professionalism, conciseness and candor. Public speaking is something I really enjoy and desire to do it with excellence; your video is very helpful in beginning my journey. Thank you again!

I love how I just watched a presentation about a presentation. xD

I truly enjoyed these wonderful tips and practice points that were shared with their readers. Each tutorial added to the others a piece of the presentation just as a finger serves a hand causing the hand to serve the wrist and on and on. I viewed enthusiastically these fine tutorials on successful use of speaking methodologies when speaking to a public audience and learned in the process I have been a criminal defense lawyer for 43 years; an ordained minister with my Master of Divinity; an adjunct professor of philosophy; PhD In pastoral psychology; an author; a presenter on law and Ethics/Civility to thousands of lawyers all over the U S. to satisfy 4 credit hours to comply with their state's CLE requirements; speak two languages; 45 years of athletics including rugby; tv/movie personality; etc I have the experience to say this: if you can't be at one with your audience and cause them to feel better about themselves ; to feel their joy and sorrows; to create that ontological moment to be remembered forever; to empathize; then you have lost a point in your presentation. It truly takes a lifetime for most people to love their audiences - truly so May The Lord continue to hold each of you in His favor. I, getting tired and must rest

Thank you very much for the speaking tips! You're right...I always forget the call to action at the end of a presentation. All the BEST to you.

I am glad I watched this video before my presentation day. Very useful and up to the point.Thank you so much.

Great stuff! You know exactly what to do with your hands and body movement tone and all CHEERS!

Thank you. Wrap up mesage was particularly impressive

A perfect presentation about how to deliver a perfect presentation! Thank you very much for explaining and illustrating the art of preparing and giving a great presentation. It is not only informative but also captivating.

I really appriciate your instructions, Prof. Riegel. You saved my life before mid-term speech test.

You are truly an expert public speaker. Like your presentation.

i am so happy I stumbles upon these wonderful tips. Ms Deborah, you rock!

Good points Deb - endings & wrap-ups are so difficult to do, and so very important - Thanks for these tips ;)

Thanks so much,it helps.I'm a networker and currently preparing for my.our business presentation meeting.GOD BLESS,Tremendously !

Nicely done - yes so many speakers start with a boring opening. You state it well.

beautiful lessons,great mind,great work.

Thanks Deborah, this was a good, basic message that hit on many of the important points of introductions and conclusions. I am going to share this with my classes and am sure that they will be able to use many of the techniques. Everything is not relevant to the presentations they will be delivering but I will cover those, (this doesn't make the entire message irrelevant, however.) I have read through the comments and have to say for those who have the attention span of a flea, are just ready to criticize without thinking, and think they know best, guess what? They don't.

Gre at ‘Platform Presence’ and though a fast delivery, it’s succinct and well delivered.

I'm watching all of your videos, one day I'm gonna change the world, it doesn't matter if it's for the better or for the worse. When I speak the whole world will tremble and all my actions will make it crumble.

You start with a bang and you end with a bang. Bang, bang. That resonates with your audience.

Fantastic insight! thank you for sharing.

That was pretty good! ^...^ *applause*

Excellent application and i highly recommend it.

Thanks Deborah :)

Agree it can be very easy to lose your audience. Sometimes if you haven't captivated your audience in the first 30 seconds then it can be an uphill struggle. It is about being confident to be yourself and speak to your audience with impact.

Thanks a bunch for that video. Very helpful :)
