July Topic: "Power Pointless: Interactive Strategies for Presentations." Presenter: Leslie Hancock

Freelancers can gain a lot of traction in promoting themselves as experts in their fields by speaking, presenting, and training. Many presenters, however (especially new ones) tend to be reluctant to let go of PowerPoint and rely on themselves and their audience to keep a group engaged.

The key is to give the audience a voice and let them contribute content in real-time for a more powerful group-centered presentation than the speaker alone could ever hope to do on her own.

Freelance Austin is part of the AWC (Association for Women in Communications) Austin Professional Chapter. It is free to AWC members, and $35/year to all others. Men are welcome. First meeting (to check us out) is free.
