The problem you think you have probably isn’t the REAL problem. You have to dig deep to find the root cause. Ask questions like “why” and “what does that mean” to really unearth the stuff lurking beneath the perceived problem. And don’t just ask those questions once. Keep going until you hit a wall because that's when you've truly defined your problem.

Do you read your audience when you’re giving a presentation? Well you should start! Your audience’s body language says a lot about how they are receiving your presentation and it is your job to give them more of what they're hungry for. Get your antenna up! Be vigilant about changing the ‘room temperature’ so that you give your audience something to leave with. Make them remember how your presentation made them feel.
