The presentation included video, stories, discussion and some practical activity. Copied below is the framework of what we mean by performance communication.

One of the main fixes we perform in presentation skills and media training workshops is on vocal authority. The video below offers a nice take on one aspect of eroded persuasiveness.

The ABC said the spectrometer will help &#8216;unravel the mysteries of the universe.&#8217; That&#8217;s an overused and almost meaningless line reporters resort to too easily.
