I was recently invited to speak to a large group of singles, and was told that the age range was 25-50. I did a some pre-speech research and learned that it was more around 50-75 yrs old! I had to scramble, since my target is usually 35-45, and share information that wouldn't seem trite to them, and they could apply to more than just the dating scene. It went relatively well until a cranky woman in her late 60's decided that one of my panelists was insulting her intelligence (he is a comedian). Oh well...some people just don't know how to play! http://publicspeaker.quickanddirtytips.com/How-To-Be-A-Great-Guest-Speaker.aspx?commentid=49066#Comments http://publicspeaker.quickanddirtytips.com/How-To-Be-A-Great-Guest-Speaker.aspx?commentid=49066#Comments Fri, 16 Mar 2012 23:35:07 GMT Paul Kirrage | CheckMyPresentation.com sampleCategory Simple, concrete advice, Lisa.
