#ThisNotThat Are you a good audience member?
When you’re an audience member and someone is giving a presentation, put yourself in their shoes.
Don’t say this: They’re accustomed to people talking.
Say this: If I were giving a presentation, I hope people wouldn’t be disruptive.
Don’t say this: I’ll just interrupt and ask questions when I have one.
Say this: I’m going to write down what I want to ask and bring it up during the Q&A. I don’t want to interrupt their flow.
Don’t say this: I already know everything they’re going to say, I’m just going to go on social media.
Say this: Everyone has a different perspective and viewpoint. I just might learn something unique!
