These are the same techniques Ive used to help hundreds of leaders give more engaging, credible and value-add administrative and executive presentations. so I know these 48 techniques work! Let me ask you a questionHow often do you have to present to groups of people you meet with regularly?How about 1-on-1?Maybe you want to make sure you nail 3 to 4 points so youre not overloading them with 20,000 things to think aboutMaybe you present multiple times to the SAME people and you need to develop relationships with themWhether its a group presentation, smaller group meetings, or 1 on 1 conversationsWhile many leaders and executives have great ideas to share, they often MISS THEIR AUDIENCEAnd youre not aloneAccording to a recent Leadership study published from Forbes 70% of employed Americans who give presentations agree that presentation skills are critical for their success.Yet 32% of people have fallen asleep during a PowerPoint presentation. Thats about 1/3 of the peopleAccording to another national survey, four out of 10 top executives admit to nodding off in boring presentations40 percent admitted to actually falling asleep during some particularly boring talks!Yet, most leaders (unbeknownst to them) CONTINUE to give boring presentations that either waste time, do NOT provide a value add, or simply dont meet the needs of their audienceIn other wordsIt wasnt anything special.They end up losing credibility, NOT being looked at as a subject matter expert and their audience ends up not caring about what theyre presenting up there.You may be perfectly knowledgeable on your content but your staff, department or team may be secretly struggling to understand what it is youre telling them or how to take action in their lives. Thats because all of us leaders suffer from what Chip Heath and Dan Heath described as the curse of knowledge in an article in the Harvard Business Review:. . . once we know something . . . we find it hard to imagine not knowing it. Our knowledge has cursed us. We have difficulty sharing it with others, because we cant readily re-create their state of mind. In the business world, managers and employees, marketers and customers, corporate headquarters and the front line, all rely on ongoing communication but suffer from enormous information imbalances. - Chip and Dan HeathTo help you break this curse of knowledge so that you can communicate your ideas as a leader andgain supportfor your goals, we created Administrator.Administrator :Address Your Department -Give a Seamless Administrative PresentationWith this step-by-step training plan, youll have a proven system of 4 dozen new skills you can follow to gracefully give an administrative presentation that keeps the right participants engaged, involved and excited about what you have to say.Heres how it works: Administrator is an Advanced, Step-by-Step Plan for giving a well-prepared, engaging presentation that commands credibility, respect and focus and brings a value-add to the table and a standard of excellence to the presentation that most audiences have never even seenJust follow the 4 dozen skills laid out in 12 modules in AdministratorIn Modules 1 through 4, youll learn how to prepare your presentation, connect with your audience, show confidence and overcome nervousness and fear.Specifically, in modules 1 4, well coverHow to prepare and organize yourself and your material so that you feel more comfortable presenting itAn easy system for practicing and improving your presentation so your audience cant wait to hear what you have to say next12 signs that you are nervous and the exact steps to appear totally calm on the outside even if youre feeling nervous on the inside Effective strategies regularly come across as confident and credibleTechniques for comfortable and engaging small talk that builds a relationship with your audience and why its so critical to do itThe exact steps to get your audience to trust you, believe you and listen to youIn Modules 5 through 8, youll learn how to convince with your voice, command with your body, keep their attention and manage media impact.Specifically, in modules 5 8, well coverThe exact steps to use media, mysteries and questions to get engagement even during afternoon sessions or long presentationsExactly what to do INSTEAD of using fillers, deceptive language, absolutes and negative wordsHow to use your tone to make staff, customers and team members want to listen to you more so their minds never wanderHow to use your body and facial expressions to set yourself apart as a leader including your stance, purposeful movements, and eye contactHow to vary your volume, pace and inflections to build enthusiasm, stress importance, contrast two ideas, re-engage the distracted, show urgency and appear confident and credible In Modules 9 through 13, youll learn how to control the pace, handle questions, minimize distractions and close to applause and action.Specifically, in modules 9 12, well coverHow to manage the pace, and say more with less in presentations and 1-on-1 conversations so that you always end on timeOur 4-step recipe to answering questions so that you always look like you know the answer even when you dontHow to handle talk hogs, distracted inefficients, fault finders and resenters so you can stay in charge no matter whats happeningHow to finish your presentation right on time EVERY time so your audience feels like you're the best theyve ever seen The exact things to say to close a meeting, presentation or conversation so others feel good about what you had to sayAnd a whole lot more...If this 12-module process sounds difficult, dont worry: we make everything simple, easy to understand, and quick to learn.In fact, you can complete the entire training in just 2 hours!

And in case youre skeptical, we even include case studies like these to prove just how effective this system isJasons techniques break down speaking fundamentals that can make anyone a more powerful and relatable speaker. His tips have revolutionized my presentations at large conferences, and internally to PerBlue employees. Justin Beck -- CEO PerBlue""I figured Jason Teteak's programs might have a few new tricksbut not much that I hadn't heard before. I was wrong. Jason integrates the latest research on presenting, learning, and audience dynamics with a captivating style that plays with the ironic fact that he is doing presentations about presentation skills. And therein lies the secret to these marvelous programs."" Philip Deloria -- Professor at Harvard""In the past I have attended several similarworkshops on these presentation skills. However, I never learned as many easy take-aways as I did on Friday. The 'opener', wherein he gathered thoughts on the board was really excellent. I also liked the 90/10 idea and that will really stick with me. I found him to be an engaging speaker and the time went by super fast. I didn't find my mind wandering at all (which isn't always the case for me). Additionally how one squares her shoulders to the audience and how important it is not to either: wander back and forth, clutch the podium like it's life support were good tips. I will try my best 90/10 in our first book group meeting tomorrow. Thanks for arranging this session."" 10 Key Administrators -- LSA Department at the University of Michigan""The practical advice that was presented and just the whole process to go through was really incredibly beneficial. The key to success is shared here in a way that can be personalized to match your own style...Jason does for public speaking what style guides do for effective writing."" Peggy Burns -- Executive Director, Corporate and Foundation Giving at Harvard University""One of the biggest things that I value from the class was the time and effort we put into body and voice control. Being more aware of my posture and tone of voice makes me a much more comfortable and confident presenter. I get to be less tense and enjoy delivering the material, and at the same time I become more credible of a source in the eyes of the audience.""

| "In this series, we'll be introduced to the world of Fibermesh in Zbrush. We'll first use Fibermesh on a simple plane and using some of the many groom brushes to 'brush' the hairs. We'll then move onto adjusting hairs with symmetry as well as doing some polypainting on the hairs for colour. We'll then go over some hair styling ideas for what we might want to create for our main Horn Head mesh by examining some painted hair layers in Photoshop. Once we decide on a style, we'll then use Fibermesh to start to create each hair element (beard, stubble, goatee, etc) individually and then we'll use the groom brushes to add more natural variations to the fibers/hairs we create. Finally, we'll use polypainting to color and tint the hair on the Horn Head's face to something more naturalistic and complimentary to the character. A final render to see how it all turns out and then looking at the render pass in Photoshop will complete our whirlwind introduction to Fibermesh!
