As a presenter-trainer-host, what makes for a good experience for attendees to want to listen and learn something? We leave aside non-educational reasons for attending events and focus on what people want to learn and get out of training presentations. Being presentation designers and trainers we admittedly wander into the PowerPoint and stage craft of presenting - and it is a great conversation!
