Surprise your audience with a striking one-liner, an irresistible question, or a visceral story.

they want to be “seen by you.” So, keep your eyes on them as much as possible.

Your point is to tailor your praise so that it reflects actual familiarity with the place or with the audience

you allow audience members a way to identify with you. You show how you are no different to them.

move people to your side, you need to make them care.

Those who tell stories rule society” is a quote attributed to Plato, Aristotle’s teacher.
