For Presenters: Organize Your Thoughts and Be Memorable:
Even if you know your subject matter like the back of your hand, take a moment to organize your thoughts and create a presentation that has solid points and clear take aways. You don’t need to create a fancy PowerPoint but you should have your thoughts organized in a way that gets people engaged.
While it isn’t crucial to have a PowerPoint, a few slides with some visuals or a handout is helpful for people to visualize what you are looking to communicate. IF you do have a presentation, please send it to Kenny [at] RockMyImage.com for review a couple days before the event so we can be sure to work out any potential technical difficulties.
