One Secret to Teaching The Same Material Repeatedly


I recently watched a vendor give a presentation, and was very impressed with his delivery style and energy.  It was clear that he’d given this presentation many times, but it seemed fresh.  Afterwards I asked him how he was able to present the same information over and over again.  “It’s not about the material,” he said.  “I focus on the fact that I have a new audience.” 

If you’re teaching something that you’ve taught before – even many times – there’s a tremendous insight there for you: focus on the new group of people.
