“Oh! It is just a ‘technical’ workshop; It does not require effective public speaking skills. Technical expertise will ensure the success of the workshop.”

Well, it might….It might not.

Depends how you define success.

Technically enlightened; bored to the core?

Feeling seeing value in what you are saying yet finding it hard to assimilate because it feels like a drudgery?

It does not have to be either or.

Technical presentations and workshops can be interesting too.

Every instance of speaking or presentation can be and must be interesting….I think we speakers and presenters owe it to our audience! 

Do you agree?
