The Best from the Speaking Pro Central Community

Using only right brain techniques to persuade is emotionally manipulative.  It's time we started screaming out " Glittering Generality " or " False dilemma " and so forth when our leaders start blatantly using propaganda techniques in meetings, PowerPoint presentations, and  press conferences . You’ll want to use persuade with right-brain techniques -- and also give the left brain something deeper to analyze.  Social media has also made "talking back" popular.  People This is Your Brain on PowerPoint.  Our brains have 2 lobes.

People are becoming accustomed to criticizing presentation techniques and content on Twitter backchannels. They're creating and commenting on blogs, and voting on Digg or StumbleUpon. I've started using social media techniques in my own speaking by opening with audience questions, recording their questions on video and posting them on my blogs. Olivia Mitchell of the Speaking About Presenting blog sent me this provocative post by Laura Bergells on the Maniactive blog: It notes the backlash against bullet-filled PowerPoint slides, which led to simple art-filled slides.
Many blog readers cannot help but click on these "Top 10" type headlines when they see them on Digg or on Twitter or in their favorite blog reader. So why not learn the techniques behind writing compelling headlines? So nobody likes bullet point presentations anymore. Really? Horse hockey.
