How to Significantly Damage Your Brand Reputation

Here's how to significantly damage your company brand reputation.

At your next live AGM, allow company employees sitting in the audience...

To check their email

Or browse social media

While their colleagues are presenting from stage

Not only is it disrespectful and distracting for the speakers.

It's VERY noticeable to other audience members.

Recently, I heard an experienced conference tech crew director make the point:

"At AGMs and conferences, when I look at the audience, I can tell who works for the company. They're the ones with their laptops open and their phones out."

Ouch.

If you care about how your organisation is perceived by AGM attendees...

Ensure ALL your people focus on what's happening on stage.

Even if they've heard the content a gazillion times before!

Small change, big difference.

 I was recently promoted into a role where public speaking and inspiring people has become more central to my ability to be effective. I was amazed by how effective just one session was. I heard indirectly that my presentation had been particularly inspirational - one person even contacted the Director of my organisation to say how impressed he had been. Without any exaggeration, I give all this credit to Simon.
