That’ll Teach ‘Em

I’ve been running some corporate training classes recently at various Fortune 500s in the Bay area.

It’s pretty nerve wracking standing up in front of a room full of engineers to teach them a technical subject. Public speaking was never my forte.

One of the “tricks” people would always tell you is, “Just imagine everyone in the audience is naked.”

Have you ever faced a bunch of Bay area software developers and tried to imagine them naked?

It’s not a pretty thought.

There is a much better way that ensures you mental state is not shaken to its core.

Just imagine everyone in the audience are staring at their smartphones.
