What’s the true financial cost of poor presenting?

Here’s one way of calculating…

Tot up the total number of hours spent listening to presentations that are a complete waste of time.

Add to that the total number of hours spent by presenters delivering or preparing to deliver presentations that are a complete waste of time.

Multiply by the number of people concerned.

Multiple by the average amount spent by employers paying people to fulfil either/both of the first two calculations.

Whatever the currency, the total amount will invariably be upsetting.

Two Tips for boosting ROI for pretty much any pointless presentation:

Option A: improve the presentation (e.g. by clarifying desired change, refining key messages, developing listener-friendly content and better delivery)

Option B: cancel the presentation.

Working through this video program [High Impact Speaking] has made a huge difference to my speaking. After my conference presentation, I had so many executives telling me: 'I want you to come and work for my organization'.... I can't count how many people told me my presentation was THE best.
