You are the presenter, and the initiator and alchemist of the energy in the room.   *BOOK COACHING:* https://shop.beacons.ai/niu.views/EnergyCoachingwithArielNiu  Improve your social presence, delivery, interactions and influences on others.   *Study Notes* - Break the fourth wall with the audience before the presentation (casual chitchat). - Have a confident base that is sustainable - honed authenticity with nonchalance. - Honed authenticity = 'being real with a secret' kind of energy. - Nonchalance = I am aware of it all and it's always all good. - It's ok to ask for context, we need context to give thorough, useful responses. E.g. 'Interesting, tell me more about x' 'I think what you are trying to say is this, am I following correctly?' 'Give me more details on this aspect' - Approach unexpected questions with curiousity, see them as opportunities. - Hone in on the individual asking the question, treat it like a conversation. - Approach follow-ups with confidence and excitement if necessary. E.g. 'I'm excited to add this to my research, I'll have it as a point in our follow-up email.' - Avoid inferiority (shame/victimizing) or superiority (masking confidence) with mistakes, I like to admit to it in the moment with nonchalance and get right back into it. E.g. 'Ok, I just made up that word, what I meant is this :)' - Catch the initial anxiety, breathe and relax into lightness and nonchalance. - Curiousity translates into confidence, which translates into the ability to connect the dots. - It's within our control whether we approach unexpected moments with anxiety/shame/rigidness or curiousity/nonchalance/lightness, and that energy will be felt by all.   0:00 Introduction + Examples 0:33 Prepare a Confident Base 2:01 Observe your Audience 5:15 Unexpected Questions 7:29 Unresolved Questions 9:22 Mess-ups 9:53 Your Presence + Reactions 11:20 Power of Curiousity 14:35 More Resources   *CONNECT:* Book Coaching - https://shop.beacons.ai/niu.views/EnergyCoachingwithArielNiu Get an Energy Reading - https://shop.beacons.ai/niu.views/energyreadingfromarielniu WORKPLACE BOUNDARIES SCRIPTS drops APRIL 2024 - https://beacons.ai/niu.views/email Livestream Replays - https://shop.arielniuviews.com/pages/memberships Instagram (join my channel) - https://www.instagram.com/niu.views TikTok (join my lives) - https://www.tiktok.com/@niu.views Partnerships/Inquiries - [email protected]   *ABOUT:* My name is Ariel Niu, I create content on social dynamics and human interactions.
