Boring? Puzzling? Annoying? These are all hallmarks of bad tech talks. If your presentations can't keep your audience engaged and concisely communicate your point, why give it? We'll help you give a great tech talk and (hilariously) demonstrate what makes a bad one, and help you avoid the latter! This can help your career and amplify your reach as a woman in tech!Key Takeaways
- Why tech talks are like sheep
- What is the rule of three and why is it useful
- What you can do so you are not a boring speaker
- What bit of "usual" speaker advice you are better off ignoring
Bio
Bobbie Carlton is the founder of Carlton PR & Marketing, Innovation Nights and Innovation Women, or, as she calls them, the day job, the night job and the dream job. Carlton is an entertaining, tell-it-like-it-is speaker who speaks extensively (and passionately) about public speaking and how it can be the driving force behind career growth and business success. She's a TEDx speaker; an entertaining startup event host; she's spoken at the United Nations; she's shared the stage with storytelling legend (and NPR's Snap Judgment host) Glynn Washington; and she's been on the main stage for some of the world’s best-known conferences for technical and professional women. Carlton has been featured on CBS News, in the Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, USA Today and other major media. She was previously the head of global PR at two different enterprise software companies and the head of marketing for a brand devoted to providing positive role models for preteen girls. She’s inspired thousands of technical, entrepreneurial and executive women to take control of their own speaking careers and has worked with event managers around the world to deliver diverse and inclusive events.
