PRESENTATIONS 41. Remain Standing If Learn about your audience before starting your presentation by playing “Remain Standing If...” Here’s how I introduce it: “We’re going to play a variation of the game Never Have I Ever, except there’s no drinking involved. I’ll give you a set of criteria. If that criteria applies to you, you’ll stay standing. If it doesn’t, you’ll sit down. For example, everyone stand up. Remain standing if you used humor at work in the last year. (Some people sit). OK, remain standing if you used humor at work in the last 6 months. In the last month? The last week? Last day?” Continue to give criteria until there are only a few people standing. Then do it again. I usually do 3 sets, ending with “Remain standing if... you’ve ever been skinny dipping.” 34
