It’s a big presentation. Or it’s a small get-together of your team. You are introduced. Be ready. Begin. Don’t fiddle with the laptop or the projector. Don’t start to set up your slide deck. Don’t shuffle through your notes. Don’t complain, explain or apologize for the fact that everything is not set up, fine-tuned, perfect and ready. Be ready. Begin.
Every presentation, no matter how big or how small is a presentation. It is a performance. The “camera” is always on.
Be ready.
