Podcasts about presentations

This episode is a rich and timely conversation about how we relate to what we know in an age of constant change and AI.My guest is Dr. Laila Marouf, a former academic who spent more than two decades researching and teaching knowledge management before having a powerful realization during the early months of the pandemic: the systems and structures she'd been focused on were designed for stable times, not for the uncertainty and disruption we're all living through now.Out of that insight, she developed the concept of knowledge mindfulness - a more human, integrated approach that connects what we know (our “knowing”) with how we show up (our “being”) and the choices we make (our “doing”), all within the real context of our lives and work.In this episode, you'll hear:The difference between traditional knowledge management and knowledge mindfulnessWhy knowledge isn't something to hoard as an asset, but a living system that needs to be nurtured and sharedHow to navigate the “fog” of uncertainty with small, thoughtful steps instead of searching for one big, perfect answerThe role of trusted others, wisdom, and unity in a world where AI can outperform us on information and efficiencyWe also talk about what this means for your leadership, your business, and your life, especially if you've been feeling like you're on a treadmill, craving more meaning, spaciousness, and alignment in how you work and live.About My Guest: Dr. Laila Marouf is Founder and Chief Knowledge Officer of Knowledge Mindfulness LLC. , an organization dedicated to evolving leaders' knowledge maturity to achieve holistic success through the use of Knowledge Mindfulness approach and strategy. Dr. Marouf has a PhD in information science with a focus on knowledge management. From there, she has embarked on a long career as a professor, researcher, consultant, and academic leader. In her book “Knowledge Mindfulness: The Interconnections that Help Leaders Transform Their Business and Life,” Dr. Marouf presents a transformative new approach to knowledge management for both individuals and organizations. Applying cutting-edge research from the worlds of business, economics, psychology, neuroscience, and the social sciences, she reveals more holistic, effective, and humane ways of harnessing knowledge to build trusting relationships and drive positive and responsible impact. About Us: The Speaking Your Brand podcast is hosted by Carol Cox.

The latest In Touch With iOS with Dave he is joined by Jill McKinley, Chuck Joiner, Eric Bolden, Marty Jencius, Guy Serle. The panel discusses iOS 26.3 security updates, the launch of YouTube's native app on Apple Vision Pro, and improvements across Apple's platforms. They debate home security cameras and privacy, explore iPad multitasking enhancements, and break down the Apple Card's move from Goldman Sachs to Chase. Plus: YouTube TV bundles, T-Mobile's live call translation, and Apple's removal of iTunes wishlists.

With more than 35 security fixes in iOS and iPadOS alone, the panel stresses the importance of updating immediately. They also discuss improvements to Android-to-iPhone transfer tools and Apple's continued cross-platform migration efforts. A major highlight this week is the long-awaited arrival of a native YouTube app on the Apple Vision Pro. The panel dives into immersive video support, spatial Olympic content, interface quirks, and how this finally elevates Vision Pro's entertainment value. Is this the turning point for mainstream Vision Pro adoption? The debate is lively. The conversation shifts into a thoughtful discussion about home security cameras, sparked by recent news events. Are devices from Ring, Eufy, and others increasing safety — or creating neighborhood surveillance grids? The panel explores privacy concerns, AI integration, cloud vs local storage, and whether user-controlled footage strikes the right balance. Accessibility features get some spotlight as Dave demonstrates Sound Recognition on iOS, including the ability to detect doorbells while wearing noise-canceling headphones — a small feature with meaningful real-world impact. iPadOS multitasking improvements are also examined. Window resizing, dock behavior, and multitasking toggles continue pushing the iPad closer to being a full laptop replacement, though muscle memory and discoverability remain challenges. Financial news rounds out the show as the Apple Card prepares to transition from Goldman Sachs to Chase. The panel discusses what stays the same, what might change, and open questions about the Apple Savings account.

What does it look like to turn an idea into a message, a message into a signature talk, and a signature talk into a published book?In this episode, I sit down with Thought Leader Academy graduate Melania Murphy to talk about her powerful journey from spark to spotlight. Over the past couple of years, I've watched Melania take a deeply personal idea and transform it into a compelling signature talk—and now, a published book. If you've ever dreamed of sharing your message on a bigger stage or turning your ideas into a book, this conversation will show you what's possible.Melania's new book, Bound by Love, Not Tradition, explores married name choices and how women can make intentional decisions that reflect their identity, values, and partnership. But this episode isn't just about names—it's about voice, courage, and claiming your message.We talk about why so many people stay stuck in the idea phase, how Melania found the confidence to speak without hiding behind slides, and how her signature talk became the blueprint for her book. You'll hear how storytelling, structure, and clarity helped her move from logic-heavy content to a message that truly resonates with audiences.We also dive into the realities of publishing—what it takes to bring a book to life, how platform-building matters, and why promotion starts long before launch day.In this episode, you'll learn:How to move from idea → signature talk → bookWhy your message becomes clearer when you speak it out loudHow storytelling builds confidence and audience connectionThe role your signature talk can play in shaping your thought leadershipWhat really happens behind the scenes of publishing and promoting a bookIf you've been sitting on an idea—maybe for months or even years—consider this your nudge. Your message doesn't have to stay in your head. It can become your talk, your platform, and maybe even your book.About My Guest: Melania Murphy is a writer, speaker, and author of "Bound by Love, Not Tradition: Empowering Women Through Married Name Choices." With a degree in applied behavioral science, she enjoys blending storytelling with research to explore identity, relationships, and the traditions that shape our choices. She's been a journalist for over 20 years and is a frequent guest on podcasts discussing the deeply personal and culturally complex issue of married name choices.Links:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/459/Get Melania's book "Bound by Love, Not Tradition: Empowering Women Through Married Name Choices”: https://www.amazon.com/Bound-Love-Not-Tradition-Empowering/dp/0960132309/ Melania's website: https://www.melaniajoy.com/ Discover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Attend our 1-day in-person Speaking Accelerator workshop in Orlando: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/orlando/ Connect on LinkedIn:Carol Cox = https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxMelania Murphy (guest) = https://www.linkedin.com/in/melania-joy-murphy-28504263/ Related Podcast Episodes:Episode 458: Same Message, Different Medium, Different Strategy with Carol CoxEpisode 407: Building Your Speaking Platform as an Author (Even If You're an Introvert!) with Tiffany Hawk

If you want to be a fantastic speaker, you have to be able to make any topic really interesting -- even if you aren't that excited about it. So on this episode, I'm going to give you nine things that I call "Impact Ideas". They are different types of evidence that you can use to make your point more compelling or interesting.This is a continuation of the series we started a few weeks called the Presentation Skills Checklist. And over the last couple of weeks, we covered the first three items on that checklist, (1) how to know your audience better, (2) how to design a catchy title, and (3) how to create a presentation outline focused on what the audience wants. Last week, we started covering the fourth step in the checklist -- offer compelling evidence to prove each point. And, on that episode, we focused entirely on examples and stories, because they are, by far, your most credible piece of evidence.So, if you haven't listened to that episode yet, make sure to. I cover a few secrets about how to be a better storyteller and how to use stories to reduce nervousness and make your audience want to really listen to you.Today, I'm going to give you nine other types of evidence. By the way, the reason why there are nine is that every presentation and every audience is different. I covered stories last week because it doesn't matter what you are speaking about or who is in your audience, a compelling real-life example of what you are talking about can add clarity. These other nine things, though, can be hit or miss. It really depends on the topic and the audience.Let me give you the nine things quickly1) Audience Participation: Get feedback from your audience, ask them questions, or get them to talk to each other.2) Analogies: Compare something complicated to something more common place to make it easier to understand.3) Anecdotes: A funny story or a story that makes a point is often more memorable than just a bullet point.4) Demonstration: When you show your audience what you are trying to tell them, they will often have more clarity.5) Quote: A testimonial from an expert or client at the right time can add credibility.6) Sample: Something that your audience can see, touch, and feel has more impact than just a description of the item.7) Name Drop: If you don't have a quote, you can name drop others who agree with you.8) Non-PowerPoint Visual Aid: A spontaneous flip-chart drawing, a poster, or board will often have a greater impact on the audience than an image on a slideshow that is more temporary.9) Showmanship: Never underestimate the entertainment value of your presentation.So, now that we know the different items, let's explore how they could do very well in one type of audience and backfire i another. Let's take Audience Participation for instance. If you are in an intimate 10 person room, getting the audience to respond is much easier. But, if you are speaking to 100 people, now you have to deal with extra microphones, and your audience will be more self-conscious. So, they may not respond.Or, if you insert a funny anecdote into a training session, it will likely get people to laugh. If you do the same thing in a finance report, it could really backfire.So, on this episode, I'll walk through each of these items, and show you ways that you can easily insert one or more of them into your presentation to really elevate that presentation and how to choose the best impact idea for the best topic and audience.Show Notes: How to Make a Speech More Interesting: 7 Presentation Ideas(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/7-stellar-presentation-enhancers-that-add-impac

The panel reflects on how far the platform has come since its early releases, noting steady software improvements and growing maturity. Marty shares hands-on perspective from recent workshops, emphasizing Apple's consistent approach to spatial computing compared with competing XR platforms. The conversation shifts to Apple's latest immersive video content, including the Crufts Dog Show experience, which highlights Vision Pro's strengths in visual detail and presence. From there, the panel touches on iOS 26.3, iPadOS 26.3, and other platform updates, including Apple's continued support for older operating systems and why that matters for users with legacy hardware or specialized workflows. Discussion then turns to the Mac, with reactions to Apple's new online Mac configuration process, now modeled after the iPad buying experience. The panel debates whether the new flow simplifies customization or makes it easier for costs to escalate unexpectedly. A key segment focuses on the Apple Home app and Apple's push to migrate users to the newer Home architecture. The panel shares candid experiences with home automation reliability, pointing out HomeKit's strengths, ongoing frustrations, and the lack of a true backup-and-restore option. The episode continues with CarPlay Ultra's gradual expansion, reports of CarPlay connection dead zones caused by wireless interference, and a celebration of the iPad's 16th anniversary, reflecting on its lasting impact and why iPad and Mac continue to serve different roles. In the news roundup, the panel covers the Apple Sports app's expansion, Amazon's rollout of Alexa Plus, and what smarter assistants actually deliver in everyday use.

One of the most common mistakes I see speakers make is trying to deliver a six-week course or a full-length book in a 45-minute talk.And then they wonder why: • the audience looks overwhelmed • the energy drops • no one remembers their message • leads don't convertHere's the mindset shift that changes everything: Same message. Different medium. Different strategy.When your message doesn't match the format, your talk can feel confusing, overwhelming, and forgettable — no matter how good your content is. But when your message fits the medium, your impact multiplies.In this episode, I share:The reasons you want to cram more content into your presentationsHow each format — lead generation presentation, keynote, workshop, course, coaching, and book — plays a distinct roleWhy books are uniquely powerful for depth, nuance, and authority (and how this ties into my upcoming author interviews)How to escape the expert trap and step into thought leadershipIf you're building talks, presentations, workshops, courses, or a book, this episode will completely change how you think about your content ecosystem.Ready to build a signature talk that gets you the results you want?

https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/bizpod/BEP103c-Charts-1.mp3 Welcome back to Business English Pod for today's lesson on using visuals and describing charts and trends in an English presentation. We've all sat through boring presentations, with PowerPoints that are just slide after slide of too much text. If all you're doing is reading off your slides, then why do a presentation at all? And if your audience falls asleep, then you've effectively communicated nothing. If you really want to grab people's attention, you use visuals. That could mean not just pictures, but graphs and charts. There's no better way to represent data than with graphs. But the graph doesn't do all the work for you. You still need to give it life and make it a seamless part of your overall presentation. The first thing you might do is introduce the point you want to make, before you use the visual. And remember that your audience might have some understanding of the topic already, so you should acknowledge that. And you can make it dramatic by using foreshadowing and highlighting important points. And just like in any presentation, it's good to use clear transitions between points and slides. In today's dialog, we'll hear a presentation from Pat, a director with a cell, or mobile phone manufacturer called Ambient. He's presenting to the company's sales team about how they've regained market share after a rough couple of years. We will hear how Pat uses visuals to enhance his presentation. Listening Questions 1. At the start of his presentation, what does Pat say they will focus on? 2. When talking about the company called Sirus, what does Pat “draw people's attention” to? 3. What does Pat say to transition to showing information about Ambient?

Have you ever hesitated to call yourself a speaker… or a thought leader… even though you know you have something important to say?I see it all the time: brilliant women who have delivered keynotes, led workshops, facilitated panels, taught classes, and spoken on stages — yet still say, “I'm not a speaker.” Sound familiar?So in this episode, I'm gently (okay, maybe a little lovingly persuasively) challenging you to rethink that hesitation.We dig into why so many women resist claiming the identity of speaker and thought leader, what's really happening beneath the surface, and — most importantly — how to start shifting that identity in a way that feels authentic, empowering, and aligned with who you truly are.I also share something personal: my own struggle with claiming the identity of writer as I work on my book. Yep, even after hundreds of podcast episodes, years of speaking, and decades of communication work, identity shifts can still feel vulnerable. You're in good company.In this episode, you'll learn:Why women often resist calling themselves speakers and thought leadersHow comparison and perfectionism quietly keep us stuckThe surprising psychology behind identity shifts (inspired by Atomic Habits)Simple, concrete steps you can take right now to start owning your voiceWhy claiming your identity isn't about ego — it's about impactI also share practical actions you can take today — from small LinkedIn tweaks to mindset shifts — that will help you step into your role as a visible leader with more confidence and ease.And because I love a powerful real-world example, I read a moving testimonial from one of our retreat clients that beautifully illustrates what happens when women finally own their voice and presence.If you've ever felt like you're playing small, waiting until you're “ready,” or hesitating to fully step into your visibility, this episode is your loving nudge forward.Because the truth is: we need your voice.This episode originally aired as episode 391 on May 6, 2024.Links:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/391/ Discover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxBook mentioned “Atomic Habits”: https://www.amazon.com/Atomic-Habits-Proven-Build-Break-ebook/dp/B07D23CFGR/ Related Podcast Episodes:Episode 371: What to Include in Your Speaker Video Reel and Speaker PageEpisode 407: Building Your Speaking Platform as an Author (Even If You're an Introvert!) with Tiffany HawkEpisode 257: Writing a Book Gives Your Ideas Depth and Longevity with Tiffany HawkEpisode 301: Why We Get Imposter Syndrome and What to Do About It with Melody Wilding

A few weeks ago, I gave you my Presentation Skills Checklist. And over the last couple of weeks, we covered the first two items on that checklist, (1) how to know your audience better, and (2) how to design a catchy title.On today's episode, I'm going to show you how to quickly and easily design your speech in a whole lot less time that what most people take to create a presentation. If you haven't listened to last week's session on how to create a catchy title, don't worry, I give a quick review at the start of this episode.Once you go through the session, I put a link in the show notes to out Online Speech Creator. Just click the link and answer a few questions, and the website will create a fantastic speech outline for you. Show Notes: How to Write a Speech in Just a Few Simple Steps(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/how-to-write-a-speech-just-few-simple-steps/)

In this episode I break down the difference between slide decks and slide docs—and talk about designing intentionally for each. Many presentation problems don't stem from weak ideas or poor analysis. They come from using the wrong artifact for the job. Slides overloaded with text are often treated as presentations when they're really documents meant to be read. The result? Confused audiences, long meetings, and diluted messages. I explain why slide decks and slide docs serve fundamentally different purposes—and why trying to make one file do both almost always fails. In this episode, you'll learn: Why slide decks are spoken artifacts designed to support your voice, not replace it How slide docs function as read artifacts that must stand on their own without explanation A simple rule of thumb to help you choose the right format before you start building Whether you're preparing for class presentations, team meetings, interviews, or client-facing work, understanding this distinction will immediately improve your clarity and credibility.

Your personal brand isn't optional anymore, even if you wish it were. In this episode, I dig into why your personal brand matters more than ever, especially in a world overflowing with content (and now AI-generated content, too), and how it connects to your thought leadership and your business I talk about a common hesitation I see with many women: the feeling that cultivating a personal brand is self-indulgent, unnecessary, or something “other people” do. But here's the truth: you already have a personal brand. It's how others describe you, what they associate with you, and whether they know what truly matters to you.I share a personal story about how a podcast listener (and later Thought Leader Academy client) connected deeply with my background in history, feminism, and women's leadership and how that connection happened not by accident, but through intentional thought leadership woven into my brand.In this episode, I break down:The difference between your business, your thought leadership, and your personal brand - and why they're not the same thingWhy thought leadership is the why behind your work, not a sales messageHow your personal brand is the embodiment of that thought leadership: you are the messengerWhat to do if your career path feels messy or disconnected (hint: there is a thread)Why authenticity, real stories, and lived experience matter even more in the age of AIHow your signature talk brings your business, thought leadership, and personal brand together in one cohesive messageI also share some early advice I received to downplay parts of my background and why ignoring that advice was one of the best decisions I made.If you've ever wondered whether certain parts of your story “belong” in your brand, this episode will give you a new way to think about it.If you're feeling stuck in the expert trap—teaching, informing, and explaining, but not fully connecting, this episode will help you see how your ideas, experiences, and point of view are exactly what make your message memorable and trusted.Listen in and reflect: What do people know you for right now—and what do you want them to know you for?Ready to Go Deeper? This is the kind of work we do inside Thought Leader Academy, helping you connect your thought leadership, personal brand, stories, and message into a clear, confident signature talk you can use everywhere.Learn more and schedule a consultation at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/contact/This episode originally aired as episode 349 on October 2, 2023.

Have you ever heard a speaker share a story and have one of these reactions:#1: Wow, I really feel connected to what this person is saying. I have a new perspective on my own situation.-OR-#2: Why is this person telling this story? I don't get how this relates to the rest of their content or why I should care or this feels icky.You don't want to end up being the speaker where the people in the audience are having the second reaction.You want your stories to have purpose and meaning and be of service to your audience.This conversation came directly from questions we hear all the time from women in our Thought Leader Academy:Is sharing my personal story self-indulgent?How vulnerable is too vulnerable?Can storytelling cross the line into manipulation?The short answer? Yes, it can. And that's exactly why how you tell your story matters just as much as what you share.In this episode, Diane Diaz and I dig into:What makes a story feel authentic vs. forced or manipulativeWhy stories should always be in service of the audience, not the speakerCommon storytelling mistakes (TMI, rags-to-riches formulas, shaming language, and oversmoothing the edges)How vulnerability builds trust - when it's grounded in reflection and purposeWhy imperfect stories often create the strongest audience connectionWe also share real examples—from our own speaking experiences and from Thought Leader Academy clients—of how telling the truth (even when it doesn't make you look perfect) can be incredibly powerful, freeing, and impactful.If you want your stories to:Deepen audience connectionBuild credibility instead of skepticismSupport your message instead of distracting from it…this episode will help you rethink how you use storytelling in your talks, podcasts, and brand messaging.(This episode originally aired as episode 350 on October 9, 2023.Links:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/mistake/Discover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Connect on LinkedIn:Carol Cox = https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxDiane Diaz = https://www.linkedin.com/in/dianediazRelated Podcast Episodes:Episode 337: Sharing Your Story as a Catalyst for Transformation with Karen KeeneEpisode 341: Unearthing Your Unique Message: Discovering What Makes You Stand Out with Judy CarlsonEpisode 92: Deconstructing My TEDx Talk: Why We're Uncomfortable with Women in Power

Many presentations fall apart not because the ideas are weak, but because the slides are doing too much at once. When a single slide contains multiple messages, charts, or competing points, the audience stops listening and starts decoding. In this episode, I explain why the "one idea per slide" principle is so effective—and why it's one of the fastest ways to improve clarity in presentations. You'll learn what "one idea" actually means, how strong sentence-based titles do most of the work, and how to use visuals that reinforce your message rather than compete with it. The episode also covers where detailed analysis belongs (the appendix) and how to use the three-second Glance Test to ensure your slides support your voice, not replace it. If you want your slide decks to feel calmer, clearer, and more persuasive, this episode offers a simple rule that makes a big difference.

Today's episode it's all about finding and developing your Big Idea for your thought leadership and public speaking.Ideas are incredibly powerful; they can live on for years, centuries, even millennia. Ideas spark movements for political and social change. Ideas help us as humans understand ourselves, each other, and the world around us.Your idea doesn't have to be something people have never heard of before; that's unlikely as most things have been talked about before - and that's ok!As a speaker, you want to have something interesting and unique to talk about, you want to make a positive impact on your audience, and you want to develop your thought leadership.Perhaps you're not sure what makes a good idea or which of your ideas is the best one. It all feels a bit messy and muddy.That's what I'm going to help you with in this episode! Think of me as your idea whisperer.You'll learn:What a Big Idea isWhy too many speakers get stuck with superficial contentHow to identify your I.D.E.A. using this handy acronym I came up withExamples of Big Ideas from myself, from some of our clients, and from thought leaders you'll recognizeSpecific questions you can ask yourself to get started developing your Big Idea(This episode originally aired as episode 354 on November 6, 2023.)Get these questions and a lot more in our 24-page FREE guide and workbook on Developing Your Thought Leadership at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/guide/.Links:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/thought-leadership-idea-framework/Get our free Thought Leadership guide and workbook: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/guide/ Discover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxRelated Podcast Episodes:Episode 352: 7 Things the Best Speakers Do: My Takeaways from TEDWomenEpisode 343: Why YOU are the Messenger for Your Idea and AudienceEpisode 339: Using Public Speaking to Influence Social Change with Tanya Golash-Boza, PhDEpisode 338: Escaping the Expert Trap: From Academic Presenter to Sought-After Speaker with Teri DeLuccaEpisode 319: The 3 Stages We Go Through as Women When We Use Our Voice
