Face in the Crowd

Even though my profession requires that I speak in front of groups of people frequently... ok, daily... I don't seek opportunities to do so and I still get a bit nervous many times when I must.

Today I had to do a presentation for someone in front of a crowd where I only knew one person. It was a positive experience as it was a positive presentation-- presenting someone with an award.

As I spoke, I happened to notice that one smiling face in the crowd who was clearly paying attention and so happy to hear what I was saying. I always try to find that face whenever I have to present... it always helps me feel valued and respected as a facilitator or presenter.

So thanks, face in the crowd. You helped me out today and I appreciate it.
