I bet if I were at your house tomorrow for Thanksgiving, you'd be a great host. You'd make sure my drink glass was full and that I had enough to eat. Right?
This is how most of us behave when we're hosting: we're both generous AND authoritative. We're in charge in a joyous way.
This Thanksgiving, whether you're having a Zoom get-together or in-person gathering, notice how you behave when you're the host.
And then, transfer those hosting skills the next time you're delivering a presentation. Attend to your meeting participants, create the mood, give your audience what they didn't even know they needed.
In the my latest 2-minute video, "Be the host," I share this tip for how to channel your best self for any presentation.
