If it were just about the content, then just writing out a speech and sending it to you would be the most economic way of communicating information to you. Or perhaps making a video and sending it to you would work. But we still prefer to attend meetings or join live events like this one or on Zoom. Why?

Well, the primary benefit of attending an event is engagement. Engagement with the Presenter; engagement with other participants; engagement with friends; engagement with work teams.

So in this episode I am going to talk about audience engagement both at live events and online events.

Engagement makes any learning process more enjoyable, and the content more memorable. But engagement does not just mean breaking out into groups or pairs, and especially does not mean engaging in embarrassing games and exercises. The aim is to physically involve the audience in the presentation and you will see, there are a variety of ways to do that.
