How Can Speakers Use Twitter To Make Their Next Speech Even Better?

If you are like most speakers, the next time that you give a speech you  are going to be hoping that your audience understand the importance of  public speaking and puts their phones down while you speak.  I  mean really, you’ve spent time creating and rehearsing this speech, the  least that they can do is to give you their undivided attention.  Unfortunately, I think that we all know that this probably is not going  to happen.

How Speakers Can Deal With An Audience That Is Distracted

Let’s all agree on one thing: you’ve worked hard to prepare for the next  speech that you will be giving.  When you take the stage, you are  assuming that your audience will be interested in what you have to say  and they will pay attention to you while you are speaking.
