A good presenter makes the difference between success or failure of your event. A presenter is the organizer, script writer, buffer, trusted partner, filter, information specialist, translator, care taker and conductor in one person. All this is necessary in order to fulfill a difficult task: to enable an enjoyable evening with an audience that wants to stay for hours.

Which skills does a good presenter need?

Organisation talent, authority and the ability to establish a connection to the author as well as the audience.

 

My goals are to:

• structure the evening well, lead smoothly through the event and leave room for improvisation

• have tangible goals and a good substance

• ask questions that are enjoyable for the author as well as the audience

• take the edge out of conflicts without incriminating

• sum up topics in a precise and adequate way. If the audience is German but the author does only speak English this means a fast and exact translation into German.

• creating a trustful atmosphere between the author and the interviewer. This way the audience really gets to know and love the author
