Body Language Reconnect Unlike Health Boss

Get Your Hands Out Of Your Pockets. It is not cool. It is slovenly. It betrays how you might really think about what you’re on stage pitching, or worse, the assembled throng listening. And is such poor etiquette too. The number of presenters – crazily paid ones too – I see

Scribbles From Sales History Ad

Here’s a Youtubular advert for some Aussie sales consultancy or other I got spammed with on a sales site I happened across the other day. It’s just 60secs. Their blurb says, > This video is about the evolution of selling over the last 40 years. It highlights the

Filming the devastating drabness from the uninhabitable Chernobyl of the day. Which sadly brings perhaps the only misstep of the whole

Bibi Beirut Danger Map

The national leader that loves their slidedecks the most was at it again this week. Israeli PM Netanyahu, nicknamed Bibi, displayed images for his (this year [https://www.timesofisrael.com/full-text-of-benjamin-netanyahus-address-to-the-2020-un-general-assembly/] , virtual) UN General Assembly slot.
