MAKE YOUR TALK FUNNY - WORKSHOP
Turn your signature talk into a crowd-pleaser that gets multiple laughs, lands hard, and makes you the highlight of the event, (even if you don’t think you’re funny) … without hijacking your message or sounding like you’ve swallowed a book of Dad jokes!
In this workshop, I’ll pull back the curtain on what makes humour work, show you where you should use it in your talk, and give you some tools to make your existing content funny, in the right way … so that you win more gigs and clients.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
The DNA of humour and how you can apply it to your talk.
The “Spiderman Principle” of speaking — and how humour gives you power only if you use it right
The golden comedy rule that you must never break - on pain of stage death.
The weird truth about why the funniest moment in your talk might not involve a single word
How to build humour into your talk without sounding like you’re trying too hard
How to make your audience laugh — and think — at the same time
What NEVER to do if someone doesn’t laugh — and the one move that turns it into more rapport
Why some of the best humour comes from you, not your material — and how to find it
The 3 most powerful places to put humour in your talk — and the exact moment to avoid
‘The Clanger Trick’ - How to get easy laughs and build authority at the same time
