In fact, one of the best testimonials Iโve ever gotten came from Mike Saxton, who said,
A few months ago, I was leading a training session, and I mentioned the KISS Principleโฆand one of the participants said, you should rename it the KSS Principle for Kim Seeling Smith. We had a good laugh, but now I find myself saying it frequently.
If you speak at conferences or events as part of your role or business, chances are youโll encounter the tech crew โ those amazing magicians in black who make everything look and sound great, even under intense pressure.
When youโre under the spotlight, it can be easy to overlook the fact that creating an outstanding conference experience is a team effort. How can you make sure youโre a speaker the tech crew loves to...
