It's even harder to read your audience when you can't see or hear them.Lisa Braithwaitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10203279973932837403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35758167.post-20646770405890925652008-11-30T21:55:00.000-08:002008-11-30T21:55:00.000-08:00One other thing to consider is that there are time...One other thing to consider is that there are times when "seeing" is not available to the speaker. Such is the case of teleseminars and some virtual presentations. These new media really present challenges. We may not even hear what the audience is mumbling in the background.<BR/><BR/>The speaker needs to be even more vigilant when using these avenues.

It's an exercise that takes concentration but I believe that when you interact with your audience and really integrate how they feel, respond, listen...it becomes easier to also stay focused on what you're saying.
