I'my, joined by the hilarious and legendary Dave Jackson. You might know him from the School of Podcasting, or maybe you've seen him speak at one of the many podcasting events around the world (including the one where I first met him—We Are Podcast!).But here's the twist: instead of diving deep into podcasting tips, I wanted to tap into Dave's decades of experience as a technical trainer and uncover how he brings humor, energy, and storytelling into his sessions.Dave has taught Microsoft Office and QuickBooks, navigated layoffs, gone back to university, been replaced by a phone (yep), and landed his dream job at Libsyn where he gets paid to podcast and speak. He also shares how playing in a band influenced his stage presence, why he practices presentations 30+ times, and the wild story behind his impromptu preacher moment at a podcasting conference.We talk:Edutainment: Why it's essential for adult learningStagecraft and how to hold attention with energy, volume, and contrastThe importance of breathing, preparation, and making mistakes in publicHow Dave handles nerves before a big presentationThe value of feedback and why your audience wants you to succeedThis episode is a masterclass in making training fun and unforgettable.Sign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comP.S.
