2. • The former CEO of five businesses, Margaret Heffernan explores the
all-too-human thought patterns -- like conflict avoidance and selective
blindness -- that lead managers and organizations astray.
3. • In her TED video “Dare to Disagree” she
explains how disagreement can lead to
positive progress.
4. • In her introduction she captured the
audience attention with a story of a famous
doctor in the 1950’s
5. • She kept the audience engaged by showing
confidence, dominance of speech and
humor
7. • She shares something that has never been
heard before and it’s the power of
disagreement which most individuals are
afraid to explore.
8. • She reveals curiosity and passion about her
speech making the audience part of the
speech
9. • She tells stories that goes with the speech
thesis and gives a more fluent idea of the
main theme of her presentation.
10. • She makes the audience laugh, she doesn’t
read her speech and finishes her speech in
12 minutes, enough time to make a point
and don’t frustrate the audience.
11. • I would evaluate her dynamism with a 4.
She could have used more slideshows or
visual projection to increase the audience
attention and reaction.
12. • She showed confidence and enthusiasm
as per Garr Reynolds describes in order
to keep an audience entertained.
13. • I’ve learnt that confidence, enthusiasm and
knowledge it’s important in a speech. It’s
the proper way to deliver a proper
presentation.
14. • I found miss Heffernan and Sir Ken
Robinson very different. Sir Robinson uses
a lot of visual projection to increase
audience attention and give a better idea of
his speech. While Heffernan uses only her
speech and a few jokes to keep the
audience attention.
15. • What I would recommend my classmates
about their future speech it’s just to be
confident, be prepared and rehearse their
speech many times, preparation it’s key
when it comes to deliver a speech, and
most important do not read your speech
but also don’t make it look like you
memorized it.
