If you ever find yourself presenting to a group of people, then please listen to this.
You need to reverse your left and right up front.
As people in an English speaking culture, we are used to reading left to right. This not only goes for books, but for timelines and progressions as well, so if I am moving from 1, to 2, to 3. I think left, to centre, to right.
Far to often, I see speakers forgetting to reverse this, and so when they are speaking, their hands are saying something different to their mouths. Their mouths may be telling me a forward progression, but I see a backwards progression with their hands.
When you are in front of a group of people, it is helpful to understand that your left and right, is no longer their left and right. Their minds wont flip for you, you must flip for them.
So when you’re speaking in front of a group of people, reverse your left and right, just for them.
