THE Presentations Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Ā Nine proven strategies executives and professionals in Japan and worldwide can use to master public speaking and influence with confidence Why do business professionals need presentation guidelines? Most of us stumble into public speaking without training. We focus on doing our jobs, not plotting a public speaking career path. Yet as careers advance, presentations to colleagues, clients, or stakeholders become unavoidable. Executives at firms like Hitachi, SoftBank, or Mitsubishi know that persuasive communication directly affects career progress and credibility. Without guidelines, many professionals waste decades avoiding public speaking. The good news? It's never too late to learn. By following proven principles, anyone can become a confident communicator capable of inspiring audiences and strengthening personal brands. Mini-Summary:Ā Public speaking is not optional in business careers. Guidelines accelerate confidence and credibility, ensuring leaders don't miss opportunities. Should you use notes during a presentation? Yes, brief notes are acceptable. Smart presenters use them as navigation aids, either on the podium or discreetly placed behind the audience. Audiences don't penalise speakers for glancing at notesāthey care about clarity and delivery. The real mistake is trying to memorise everything, which creates unnecessary stress. Professionals at companies like Goldman Sachs or Deloitte often carry structured notes to ensure flow without losing authenticity. The key is to avoid reading word-for-word and instead speak naturally to main points. Mini-Summary:Ā Notes provide direction and reduce stress. Reading word-for-word damages authenticity, but reference notes enhance confidence. Why is reading or memorising speeches ineffective? Reading entire speeches is disengaging. Audiences quickly tune out when delivery sounds like a monotone recitation. Memorising 30 minutes of text is equally flawedāit strains memory and removes spontaneity. Modern leaders need flexibility, not rigid scripts. Instead, professionals should memorise key ideas, not sentences. Political leaders and CEOs alike rely on talking points, not full manuscripts, to stay natural and adaptable. In Japan, executives trained in Dale Carnegie programs learn to communicate with presence, not performance. Mini-Summary:Ā Reading or memorising word-for-word suffocates engagement. Focus on key points to remain natural, flexible, and credible. How can evidence strengthen your presentation? Audiences are sceptical of sweeping statements. Without proof, leaders risk credibility damage. Evidenceāstatistics, expert testimony, and case studiesāadds authority. A claim like āour industry is growingā has little weight unless supported with 2025 market research or benchmarks from firms like PwC or Bain & Company. In Japan's cautious corporate culture, data-backed arguments are particularly vital. Numbers, trends, and customer case studies reinforce trust, especially during Q&A sessions where credibility is tested. Mini-Summary:Ā Evidence turns opinion into authority. Leaders should support claims with facts, statistics, and expert sources to maintain credibility. Why is rehearsal so important? Practice transforms delivery. Presenting to trusted colleagues provides feedback and confidence. But avoid asking vague questions like āWhat do you think?ā Instead, request specifics: āWhat was strong?ā and āHow can it improve?ā This reframes feedback into constructive insight. At global firms, leaders often rehearse in front of teams or communication coaches before critical investor calls or town halls. Japanese executives, known for precision, benefit greatly from structured rehearsal before presenting to boards or government stakeholders. Mini-Summary:Ā Rehearsal reduces anxiety and strengthens delivery. Ask targeted questions to turn feedback into actionable improvement. Do you always need visual aids? Not necessarily. Slides are valuable only if they add clarity. Overloaded decks weaken impact, but visuals with people, trends, or key figures make content memorable. A simple chart highlighting one data point can be more persuasive than 20 dense slides. Visuals also act as navigation, allowing presenters to recall main points naturally. At firms like Apple or Tesla, minimalist visuals emphasise storytelling over clutterāan approach business leaders worldwide can adopt. Mini-Summary:Ā Visual aids should clarify, not confuse. Use them sparingly to highlight key ideas and support storytelling. How should professionals control nerves before speaking? Nervous energyāābutterfliesāāis natural. The solution is physical and mental preparation. Deep, slow breathing lowers heart rate and calms the body. Some professionals walk briskly backstage to burn excess energy, while others use pep talks to raise intensity. Finding a personal ritual is key. Research in workplace psychology shows that controlled breathing and physical grounding improve focus. Japanese executives presenting at high-stakes shareholder meetings often use discreet breathing exercises before stepping on stage. Mini-Summary:Ā Anxiety is natural. Breathing, movement, and mental preparation channel nerves into productive energy. Why should you never imitate other speakers? Authenticity wins. Copying others produces inauthentic delivery and limits growth. Instead, leaders should develop their own voice through practice and feedback. Life is too short to be a poor copy of someone else. Famous communicators like Steve Jobs or Sheryl Sandberg became iconic not by imitation but by honing unique, authentic styles. The same is true in Japan: executives respected for leadership presence stand out because they are genuine. Mini-Summary:Ā Don't copy others. Develop a natural, authentic style that reflects your personality and strengths. Conclusion: How do guidelines transform your presentation career? Public speaking is not an optional skillāit defines leadership impact. By applying nine guidelinesāusing notes, avoiding reading, focusing on key points, backing claims with evidence, knowing more than you say, rehearsing, using visuals wisely, controlling nerves, and being authenticāprofessionals protect and elevate their personal brands. Key Takeaways: Notes guide, but don't read word-for-word. Memorise ideas, not sentences. Use evidence to back claims and build authority. Rehearse with feedback for confidence. Visuals should enhance, not clutter. Control nerves with breathing and energy rituals. Authenticity beats imitation every time. Leaders at all levels should take action now: seek training, rehearse deliberately, and present with authenticity. Don't waste years avoiding public speaking. The sooner you embrace it, the faster your leadership brand grows.

Chris Morrison criticizes the Met Office and other climate organizations for the poor siting and inaccurate data collection at weather stations, which he argues skew global warming statistics. He highlights the work of researchers like Ray Sanders and Dr. Eric Huxster, who have identified serious flaws in temperature recording practices, such as measuring heat spikes near artificial heat sources. Morrison also discusses how these flawed practices contribute to fearmongering about climate change, advocating for a return to rigorous scientific standards untainted by political agendas.00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction00:34 Freedom of Information Act Request01:44 Analysis of Temperature Records01:59 Amateur Contributions to Data Analysis02:53 Heat Spikes and Their Implications05:06 Questioning the Met Office's Data Integrity05:47 Historical Temperature Comparisons07:53 Global Warming and Data Manipulation08:19 Political and Media Influence on Climate Data09:28 Challenges in Accurate Temperature Measurement15:11 Global Perspective on Temperature Measurement23:51 Net Zero and Climate Policy Critique25:03 Public Perception and Media Influence27:12 Conclusion and Final Thoughts35:10 The Energy Crisis and Net Zero Debate35:52 Critique of BBC's Coverage on Net Zero36:49 Philosophical Debates on Net Zero38:00 Mainstream Media's Shift on Net Zero42:39 The Role of Financial Journalism47:11 Climate Journalism and Grooming Courses56:16 COP Meetings and the Future of Climate Politics01:03:46 The Scientific Debate on Climate Change01:08:47 Concluding Thoughts on Climate Sciencehttps://twitter.com/CMorrisonEsqhttps://dailysceptic.org/author/chris-morrison/========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

After a week that went "off the rails" due to unexpected emergencies including children's health issues, emergency dental work, and even a mouse invasion, Christine Tulley, President and Executive Writing Coach at Defend, Publish & Lead, discovered that while she thought she had built sufficient 30-minute buffers into her daily schedule, she hadn't accounted for how tightly stacked her days were against each other. When one day explodes due to emergencies, there's insufficient margin in subsequent days to absorb the ripple effects. The episode offers practical strategies for creating true margin in overpacked academic lives, including asking for help, moving non-urgent tasks, shortening meetings, saying no when possible, and building in extra travel time to prevent the stress and errors that come from rushing.

The Aussie market has slid for a third time this week. Steve discusses this session which reversed the small gains of Wednesday and discusses the catalysts likely to spark a US rate cut. Locally healthcare and banking seen declines, and gold miners continued to gain attention with the precious metal on a tear. PolyNovo has bounced back from the recent declines, defence contracts saw some well-known names grow, and a lot of ex-dividend stocks saw declines.

Synopsys (SNPS) opened Wednesday as the biggest laggard in the SPX, down over 30% after it posted weaker-than-expected earnings and guidance. Sam Vadas also mentions commentary from leadership on "expectations of deals that did not materialize" and continuous headwinds in China. The original meme stock, GameStop (GME), shows surprising earnings strength that investors rewarded with a rally. Sam later turns to Novo Nordisk (NVO) after the GLP-1 giant cut 9,000 jobs, along with Klarna's IPO expected later on Wednesday.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with our summer intern, Nathan Oyer, who's about to head back to Binghamton University. In this episode, you'll hear a candid introduction with Nathan about his experiences as a TAP intern, then we'll dive right into the training session Nathan led for our team. He shares his insights and research on what makes Gen Z tick, from their love of authentic marketing to the language and wellness trends driving their travel decisions. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why understanding the differences between generations is key when crafting messages and campaigns aimed at Gen Z versus Millennials, Gen X, or Boomers What makes Gen Z unique as consumers, including their desire for relatable, authentic, wellness-oriented experiences How language and slang can both help and hinder brands when communicating with Gen Z Why relatability, authenticity, and micro-influencers now matter more than celebrity endorsements when engaging with Gen Z audiences What role wellness plays in Gen Z's travel and purchasing decisions, and how destinations and brands can tap into this trend How Gen Z views and responds to cancel culture and why transparency and a willingness to learn from mistakes are so critical Bridging Generational Gaps in Tourism Marketing To market effectively, it's essential to understand the context and experiences that have shaped each generation. Nathan outlined a generational roadmap, from Baby Boomers who value face-to-face connections, paper mail, and research-driven marketingāall the way to Gen Z, born between 1995 and 2009. Unlike previous generations, Gen Z grew up with technology at their fingertips. They're digital natives, expect user-friendly web interactions, and are famous for their short attention spans. Where Millennials (born 1980ā1994) might be drawn to nostalgia and Instagram, Gen Z's heart belongs to TikTok, Snapchat, and real-time, less-curated microcontent. Slang to Improve Storytelling One playful, but important, aspect discussed was slang. Gen Z's ever-evolving language isn't just about new words; it's a reflection of community, humor, and relatability. Nathan led the TAP team through some current favorites (like āNPC,ā and āno capā), but did share a word of caution that slang is tricky territory for brands. Using slang can humanize a brand and make content pop, but if brands try too hard or use trends after their expiration date, they risk coming across as ācringeā (Gen Z's word, not ours). Wellness, Sustainability, and Social Responsibility Wellness isn't just a trend for Gen Z, it's a lifestyle. They're proactive about their mental and physical health, seeking out travel experiences that contribute to self-care and well-being. When looking for ways to engage Gen Z travelers there are lots of opportunities around trips like spa retreats, vegan experiences and sustainable stays. To connect with Gen Z, brands have to blend strategy with sincerity: adopt the right language, stay up to date with trends, and continuously center authenticity and purpose.

Dollar Tree (DLTR) shares fell despite a solid Q2 earnings report as investors questioned the sustainability of its results and expressed concerns about the impact of tariffs on margins. Arun Sundaram of CFRA Research attributes the stock's weakness to the cautious outlook and notes that Dollar Tree's decision to raise prices to $3-$5 price points to attract higher-income households may erode its value proposition. Meanwhile, Stephanie Cegielski of ICSC believes that consumers will continue to seek out discounts and bargains, particularly during the holiday season, which could benefit Dollar Tree and similar retailers.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Farmer sentiment dipped again in August as the Purdue University-CME Group Ag Economy Barometer Index fell 10 points to 125. Producers were markedly less optimistic about the future in August as the Index of Future Expectations dropped 16 points to 123. This was the lowest reading for the future index since last September. Purdue ag economists James Mintert and Michael Langemeier share insights into the results of the August 2025 survey, conducted from August 11-15, in this episode of the Purdue Commercial AgCast. Sentiment differed widely among producers depending on whether their farm is primarily a crop operation or a livestock operation. Responses from crop producers this month were much less optimistic than those from livestock producers, which indicates the disparity in profitability between crop and livestock enterprises. Beef cattle operations in particular are experiencing record profitability as the smallest cattle inventory since 1951 has pushed cattle prices to record levels. This stands in sharp contrast to returns for crop production which have weakened in 2025. The Ag Economy Barometer sentiment index is calculated each month from 400 U.S. agricultural producers' responses to a telephone survey.Ā Further details on theĀ full report is available atĀ https://purdue.edu/agbarometer.

In the past week alone there has been an FBI raid on John Bolton's home and a threat to investigate former New Jersey governor Chris Christie due to his criticism of Trump. Every day there are new indicators to suggest the US is rapidly descending into dictatorship, with the President using the power of his office for his own ends. How can Americans stop this momentum? Andrew and Rudyard then turn to Canada's ongoing trade war with the US. Mark Carney's repeated attempts at being a reasonable interlocutor engaging in good faith negotiations is met with provocation from the US President. Andrew suggests the PM try to manage chaos and stall for time instead of trying to reach a deal. This is a problem that shouldn't be solved; it should be managed. In the final moments of the show Andrew and Rudyard talk about Carney's visit to Ukraine and his offer to send Canadian troops as part of a future security guarantee. Is it time for Canada to accept its defense limitations and its inability to act as the peacemaker it has always aspired to be? Or should we welcome this offer as an opportunity to fulfill our long neglected NATO obligations?
