Session Synopsis

How to Be Funny (Even If You're Not) - Incorporating Humour into Your Stories and Presentations

Are your presentations and stories more snooze-worthy than side-splitting? Well, fear not! Our session will help you unlock the secrets to incorporating humor into your content, even if you've never cracked a joke before. We'll teach you the tricks of the trade, from timing to exaggeration, and help you put them into practice with delivery techniques that will have your audience rolling in the aisles (figuratively speaking, of course). But we won't leave you hanging - we'll also give you tips on how to read your audience and adjust your humor to their sensibilities. By the end of the session, you'll be the funniest person in the room - and more importantly, you'll know how to keep your audience engaged and entertained.
