		<description><![CDATA[This Story May Make You Think Twice Before You Do Your Next Public Speaking AppearanceRecently, I attended a keynote presentation by a major radio executive in Toronto. Which, may sound interesting enough but, what happened at this event may make you think twice about how fine tuned your public speaking skills really are! It all started innocently enough when a representative from the hosting organization got up to introduce the keynote speaker. What happened next can only be described as a complete public speaking meltdown and a humiliating nightmare. &#160;After taking the stage and nervously placing herself behind the podium, she immediately launched into a twenty minute litany about herself, her quirky mother, nine rooms in her house, her alcoholic father, her trip to Boston, her move to New York etc. And, as she rested her elbows on the podium she held tightly to her face two goose-neck microphones. (I know you can picture this in your head!) And, while this looked obviously inappropriate she also never got around to mentioning anything about the keynote speaker. With growing frustration, chairs around the room started to shift, people started to moan, and people began to give hand signals to hurry up and get off the stage. Yet, despite all the warning signs, she just kept going. Then, it happened. She got heckled by the audience! "Get off the stage for crying out loud, let the speaker speak!" said one. "That's enough!" said the other. And, this was not just any audience! This was a prominent well-to-do money making business audience. Not only did she never even get to the point but, but she failed completely in her duty to introduce and honour the keynote speaker. After realizing her professional blunder (due to the loud heckling from the audience) she politely said "well it looks like I've run out of time". Though she tried to regain her composure, she sheepishly began reading the guest speaker's credentials off a page in a monotone voice like she was reading names from a phonebook.]]></description>
