Tee Up Your Speech: Golf is Like Public Speaking
Tip #9
Be aware
of the time.
When playing golf, don’t slow down the
play. Be ready and keep moving! No one
wants to have to wait unnecessarily.
The same holds true for public
speaking. Know your time allotment and stick to it. Respect your audience; we all have busy schedules.
It's better to end early than finish late.
If one person is monopolizing your Question & Answer session, take control and recommend
continuing the discussion afterwards. Your audience will appreciate that. You don’t want anyone to
feel you are wasting their time.
A professional speaker should start and end on time!
