You have the power to sway an audience. It\u2019s your conviction that moves people in the room to believe what you believe. Your audience can see in your face and your gestures, and hear in your voice whether you believe what you\u2019re saying. They take their cue from you.<\/p>\n<p>Slides disrupt that connection between speaker and audience. That\u2019s why they have always been less than ideal. And they\u2019re even more of a letdown in today\u2019s virtual environment, where people crave the human touch and want to connect with you.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-9746\" src=\"http:\/\/modernworkplacelearning.com\/cild\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/human-1211467_640-243x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"40\" height=\"49\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 1rem;\"><strong>QUESTION<\/strong>:<\/span><br \/>\nHow can you become a more effective speaker or presenter online &#8211; without slides?
