Gone in 9 Seconds! How Successful Speakers Deal With Audiences’ Shrinking Attention Spans [Webinar]

Hollywood shows it’s possible for your car to be Gone in 60 seconds. But real always outdoes reel. Our attention span, mind’s power to focus on one thing, is simply gone in 9 seconds! It’s no exaggeration; our minds travel faster than the fastest car ever engineered.

So, as presenters how do we keep audience engaged throughout the probably 60-minute long presentation. How do highly successful speakers like Steve Jobs, Jim Carrey. Simon Sinek. Martin Luther King. Barack Obama keep us engaged for hours. And first of all, what makes them so successful.

All highly successful speakers share 7 habits in common. Dr. Michelle Mazur, Speech Designer and Author of best selling book Speak Up For Your Business threw light on these habits through her one-hour free webinar “7 Habits of Highly Successful Presenters”.
