Below is a recap of my first ever presentation. You’ll have to watch it to see why it is just the recap and not the actual presentation. In it, I will share a few of the things that went well in the presentation and what I learned.
This podcast was my final dry run of the presentation. You can use it to get an idea of the material I covered during the presentation. I talked about being a professional and 11 steps which will help you get there.

Impressive material! Can’t wait to hear more.
Heidi should be your camera woman! Nice Alexa score. I’m going to sift through your archives now. I need to re-read a couple things on here.

Hey Scott, you’re right about that, I’m going to get Heidi to be my camera person – or somebody definitely next time!
Jeremy, this is such an awesome presentation. I was the poster child of un-professionalism too. It wasn’t until one day when I woke up and decided that every choice I make speaks volumes about what type of person I am. I asked myself, did I want to be that type of person? That’s when it started for me.
Great presentation, I know you helped those students tremendously!!

Thanks Jarrod – I just wish I would have had the recording available, but you live and learn (as I said so many times in my recap video above). Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Jeremy,
how are you?
oh my!!! the red button!!
you look excited and relaxed, i’m sure you gave it all you’ve got and the students were inspired and enlightened.
thanks for the great list of qualities and skills of a professional above.
you have a great day

Yes! That dreaded red button. But it won’t get me again :) You have a great day as well Ayo.
Hi Jeremy,
I applaud you! I’m sure your presentation was well received. Your outline would make a great plaque. I just had to retweet ‘Get Excited and Motivated.’ I feel a sore throat coming on and that post got me to get up to move and laugh.
‘See’ you soon.

Hmm, a plaque – thanks for the idea Kim. I look forward to more presentations and I about have this one memorized now, so that is one thing in my ‘quiver’ – ‘see’ you soon as well!
