Presentation skills Brown Bag in a virtual world

Pre-Covid I regularly held presentation skills brown bags

In those brown bags I had the attendees do different activities to help improve their presentation skills…but most of those assumed a physical interaction.

Last week I was asked to redeliver one of my brown bags…but in a VIRTUAL SETTING???!

Begging the question what the heck activities do I have them do to optimize for a virtual experience?

Looking at my last blog post on this topic let’s see if I could translate these to activities to a set of virtual activities….

Here is my first run at those activities!

Share the stage
- Bring a friend!
- Today
  - “Um master”
  - “Time master”
Be the story
- Blur Background
- Stock Background

Engage your audience
- Physical Activity > Now becomes Camera Framing
- Eye Contact Activity would use erasers in the room > Post its behind the screen
