Presenting While Sick With The Cold & Flu
The show must go on, especially when you’re the star. So grab your hot honey lemon tea and give your audience what they came to see.
These presentation tips will help you put on a great show when you’re not feeling like taking centre stage.
Don’t break the 4th wall.
Never tell the audience that you’re sick. Keep the focus on your presentation. You don’t need to capture their sympathy - you need to capture and keep their attention.
Testing 1,2,3.
If you’re congested, you may not be aware of your voice volume. Ask someone to help you do a sound check around the room and make sure the fluctuation of your voice is as you originally intended.
Wardrobe.
When you’re under the weather, getting a fix on your body temperature can be trouble. Layer-up with a blazer or button-up sweater. You can remove it and put it back on without too much distraction.
Edit the script.
No matter how captivating the presentation, people still like getting out early. Take a closer look at your script. If you can cut a little—go for it! Then rest up. You’ll be back to 100% in no time.
