That's great to hear! I always always delighted to hear "success stories" from listeners. It makes it all worthwhile.

Hey thanks for listening and for your kind words!


David LoPresti LIsa, I love your podcasts! they are a lot of fun and informative.


The Public Speaker Brian Willsie is the winner of the contest to help me spread the word about the show! He suggested I create short, free, fun videos for middle school through University level. I'd like to do this as a listener supported project, so I'll need your help! I'll donate my time to do it...I just need others to donate resources and help (video production, editing, marketing..) If you want to help please contact me!


The Public Speaker This week on the show I wrote about helping my friend Henry take a jumble of ideas and turning it into an effective presentation. Having a process makes the transformation fast and easy. (At least I think so...what do you think?)

Steve, Perfect timing. Just this morning, Pete (another listener) requested a show on doing demos...
Anyone else interested??
I told Pete I'd do it if I rec'd a request from someone else too.

I think it's useful to do again in time...every 5 to 10 years and see how it changes. Try to keep your results somewhere you can find them again that far in the future.

What can I say, but you're a smart woman! What's that phrase?...oh yea, "Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery!"


Stacie Emelander Voskuil Just found your podcast last week and have listened to them every chance I could. LOVE them. Can you give some advice about women in the workplace. I was promoted 8 monhts ago and since then the other women treat me so poorly. Talking negatively about me amongst themselves and with other professionals, etc.. It is horrible. I feel attacked most days.


The Public Speaker This coming Saturday, May 2nd I'll be in NYC at LaidOffCamp http://cl.gs/UEtmW7 delivering a free presentation with Marc A. Wolfe.

Monica Thinking of you: Was just reading an interesting piece in the Nutrition Entrepreneurs newsletter (subgroup of ADA) on the difference between a professional speaker and a professional who speaks. They contend that PWSs misrepresenting themselves as PSs make the true PSs look bad!




The Public Speaker If you're a manager, I highly recommend Manger Tools. Great podcast at a great price (free). I noticed they have a PDF on effective meetings. (Great minds think alike...<smile>) http://cl.gs/guNreg

It's one of my favorites podcasts!
The Public Speaker at 4:09pm April 26
I hope it's your *second* favorite podcast! <smile>


The Public Speaker In your meetings do you use a "parking lot", a "two-minute warning", or a "no laptop" rule? Find out how these and other strategies can help you to prepare and deliver a more effective and productive meeting http://cl.gs/qp6Utt @Donna just for you!
Donna at 9:25am April 25
Really great suggestions. Thank you. I like the one about starting on time and would like to add (from Mr. Manners) "never be late to your own meeting"
The Public Speaker at 4:08pm April 26
Yep, you can't start on time if you're not there!
Donna at 7:01pm April 28
I liked your suggesions about 2 minute and 1 minute warnings and then parking lot. That will help a lot


Donna Barber Hello Lisa, I have recently started listening to your podcast and have taken so much away already. I have been going to many meetings and will begin training on facilitation. I would love your tips on those skills.


The Public Speaker Do you practice, practice, practice your talk then choke? For things we've practiced many times, turns out it's better run on autopilot then to think about it. I found this to be SO TRUE! My Salsa dancing teacher kept saying, "Lisa, don't think about it!" Here's an in depth PDF from Scientific American http://cl.gs/pJyhJN & an article from The Wall Street Journal http://cl.gs/sNQ25P that explains!


The Public Speaker Do you know how to gracefully receive feedback? This week on the show I talk about a 3-step process for opening and honestly listening to feedback. http://cl.gs/A2zqpQ (By the way if you've got feedback for me, please, I'd love to hear it!)
Donna at 7:36pm April 24
I have used the word feedback more this week than ever in my life. I really find it useful. Thanks again


The Public Speaker @Kate Ferguson I feel the pain in the emails I receive. I wish there were more I could do. By the way, I was bullied at work once too. I ended up quitting.


Kate Ferguson I think it's wonderful that you're increasing awareness of workplace bullying, It's unfortunatly all to common and is often soul destroying. Thanks for your help in public speaking too. I find your podcasts really interesting!

The Public Speaker Here's a link to a research article on effective feedback. http://cl.gs/ZBGyZ5 It suggests that more frequent "conversations" seem to be more motivational for the receiving party.


The Public Speaker This week I did a show on delivering feedback http://cl.gs/a1BtyA Let us know if you give it a try.
