Useless facts
| Purpose |
 |
The object is to deliver a presentation which maintains audience attention utilising material which is otherwise of no real benefit. |
| When preparing |
|
Devise a mini-speech that links your useless facts together in an interesting presentation. |
|
|
The information should be of no benefit and can be humorous, hard to believe, from left field or whatever. The only other requirement is that it must be true | |
|
|
You can add greater impact by linking your facts to the meeting theme. | |
|
|
As with all assignments, prepare and rehearse to ensure correct timing. | |
| Before the meeting begins |
|
Inform Chairman 1 of your title, and how you would like him/her to introduce you. |
| What to do during your assignment |
|
You may need to use notes for this assignment, especially where numbers are involved. The challenge is to use them well, without over-relying on them. |
|
|
Deliver the mini speech with due regard to pausing for impact, and to give people a chance to absorb the material. It is best to maintain a serious outlook for this useless information. | |
|
|
When you are finished, hand back to Chairman 1. | |
| That is the end of your assignment. You will be evaluated by the General Evaluator |
