I agree, it's always crucial that you get to the venue in plenty of time to make sure everything works correctly and that you will have an adequate opportunity to set things up in the way that allows you to deliver the best value to the audience.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">leepotts</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 28 May 2008 16:51:36 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Badges?

If you need to move something, move it. If you need to write something on the flip chart or white board, do so. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you become too deferential, it can be seen as a lack of confidence , which will undermine your authority and thereby your presentation as a whole!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks for the post</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Terry Gault</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 28 May 2008 16:42:45 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
