[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My job has a lot of legal compliance elements, and so I attend a lot of webinars and whatnot to stay up to date.

And without fail, the lawyer delivering the information has the dynamism of tofu. Flat affect, too many unexplained terms of art, just droning the content, often directly off the slides.

I know a ton of lawyers, and they are normal people. So why is it that when they get in front of an audience, any personality or humor just *poof* disappears? Is there a law school class about delivering the flattest presentation possible? I'm not even sleepy-- well rested and caffeinated!-- and having a hard time staying awake. [/quote]

It's not just lawyers. Sat in on a 45 min+ webinar and for the person who was trying to market their business, it was an unbelievably monotonous webinar without a break for 45 min. This person could have stopped every once in a while to take questions but nope, talked slide after slide hurried. At the end, when they asked if any questions, no one had one. Wonder how many even stayed on past 20min. It just seemed person was doing it as a favor to someone. How does one expect to attract new customers? [/quote]
