Webinar Tip # 03
SHUT UP! Don't lecture in your webinars
See more tips below

In most  webinars,  the speaker/ presenter lectures people to death.  
They cannot help but barrage learners with voluminous information.   
Results?  - learners who are BORED and FRUSTRATED.   
They sleep, snore, multitask and really don't learn.


In webinars where trainers have no control of the learner's environment, it is more important to let learners experience ample  action and interaction.


The only way you engage learners is to get them glued to the webinar screen through  interaction.. 
How...?  DON'T LECTURE! 

No lecture webinar...

Helpful  tips:
  • Plan interactions in advance so you can ask provocative questions
  • You can not ad lib
  • Ask questions that provoke learners
  • Ask them to respond to a situation in real life, not theory
  • Read aloud chat responses and repeat learners' ideas
  • Recognize learners by mentioning their names
  • Although you may have 1000 participants in your webinar, imagine that  you are having one on one intimate conversations
  • Always synthesize
  • Ask a question to solicit  short ideas
  • Ask questions every 2 to 3 minutes
  • When you ask a question, allow learners to respond
  • SHUT UP. Don't answer your own questions
