This year, I was asked to participate on the PASS Program Committee Management team as the “Speaker Manager.” One of my tasks is to create a Speaker’s Resource page on the SQLPASS.org website to aid speakers who want to submit session abstracts for the 2009 PASS Summit, which will be held in Seattle, WA from November 3 — 6, 2009.
As part of this Speaker’s Resource page, I want to include a section called “Speaking Tips,” which will offer general tips on how to create and present a great session.
Instead of trying to write all the tips myself, I am soliciting your help. If you have spoken before any audience before, and have learned any tips of the trade that would benefit other speakers, please share them with me with on this blog. Once I get everyone’s suggestions, I’ll compile them and include them on the PASS website’s Speaker’s Resource page.
If you are asking yourself, where is the Speaker’s Resource page on the SQLPASS.org website, you are right, as it has not been released it. We are still working on it, but it will become available shortly before the PASS Community Summit Call for Speakers, which opens on Friday, March 20, 2009. When the page becomes available, it will be announced in my blog, on the SQLPASS.org website, and in the PASS Community Connector newsletter.
