Getting the attention of a group is not a trivial skill. Even when customers have paid to come on a tour and employed you as a guide to share your knowledge – getting an audience to pay attention can sometimes feel like an impossible task. How can we effectively get people’s attention when leading a tour or facilitating and experience? As someone who worked as a camp counsellor for many years and then ran a summer camp program, I had to quickly find strategies for quieting down large groups of excited children. Later in life, working as a tour leader, guide and experience host, these skills proved invaluable. The great thing about working with groups of adults? They’re just big children! = ) After listening, I would recommend checking out this bonus PDF our team has put together: ‘10 incredible speeches by 10 incredible speakers‘ is a PDF document containing YouTube links to ten fantastic speakers in action. Watch how these masters hold the attention of their audiences – and look for techniques that you can adapt to suit your personal style.
