Ep. 329 ARE THEY LISTENING

Dec 12, 2025

Once in a while, an audience is less emotive than most, leaving a speaker to wonder, “Are they listening?”

Mark and Darren discuss that question today while providing perspective, context, and solid suggestions for presenting well in those circumstances.

 

 

SNIPPETS:

 

• Always be present

 

• Bring your ‘A GAME’

 

• Don’t let a stoic audience affect your mission

 

• External factors may affect audience response

 

• Not every audience emotes

 

• Create an environment that is conducive to listening

 

• Be aware of the atmosphere and read the room

 

• Consider the context of the event

 

• Look for the audience member who is ALL-IN

 

• Feed the audience members who feed you

 

• Find a way to eliminate a center aisle when possible
