Here’s a summary of the key points of J. Douglas Jefferys’s speech:

  1. Anything you do to make the audience uncomfortable gets their attention away from you.
  2. Eye contact can represent veracity (truth, accuracy, precision of something).
  3. Allow audience to breathe in your points by pausing for them.
  4. Keep the hands out of the pocket.
  5. Be mindful of gestures, especially those you don’t notice about yourself by yourself when you speak.
  6. Make sure the content matters… to your audience.
  7. Think of your conclusion as that last ribbon which ties the entire gift package for your audience.
