If you have an epic fail when delivering a typical business presentation, you might lose the sale. If you "crash and burn" when delivering a safety presentation, someone might lose their life. The stakes are so much higher!
Even though the stakes are so much higher when you speak about workplace safety, so many speakers just go through the motions. The four most dangerous words for a safety speaker....."I can wing it!" Have YOU sat through a safety presentation where the speaker was just "winging it?" Be honest--have YOU ever been that speaker? Was the talk more horrific than helpful? (I feel your pain--I've been in both situations!)
