Thanks to Hugh’s reminder, I read his list on how to have smarter conversations. The list is good advice for anyone, but I especially appreciate some of the points as being words of wisdom for doing better presentations.

I hadn’t thought about number 4 as being a reason to blog. It’s great and something I will share with future audiences:

"4. Start a blog.

Blogs are funny things. Say something smart, people pay attention. Say something dumb, you’re ignored. We big media folk just can’t seem to get our heads around that concept, for some reason. Regular blogging can help train you to better discern between smart and dumb. Makes it easier to extend this to the rest of one’s business."
