In this talk, Rowan will distil down the essential elements that contribute to effective presentation. Presentation is simple, it's just not easy; so most people shy away from making the simple changes that can transform their talks to a new level. In 15 minutes, Rowan will make you wince, laugh and think in equal measure and hopefully, help you make that change.

PowerPoint nerd, wordsmith, storyteller, trainer and dancing bear. Rowan passionately believes that there has to be a middle ground between the genius presenter who mumbles his/her great thoughts in bullet point form (usually with their back to the audience) and the strong, confident speaker who frankly doesn't have very much to say. A bit of pause for thought and a modicum of honing and rehearsal can transform a poor-to-average preso into something that really makes a difference.
