After 150+ Years, 3D Is About Ready to Come Home
| |
| Go to a content conference, convention -- heck any conference, any convention. What's the leading subject of conversation? OMG 3D movies are fantastic. 3D video games are so real. Did you hear what Sir Howard said the other day? Yep we're all going to have 3D TV by the end of next year...all of us!!! Gee and we're still paying for our big screen HD TV sets (all of them!). DreamWorks Katzenberg, Sony, Panasonic and "them" are hellbent to make certain you get the economy moving in the right direction. Don't get us wrong. This round of 3D movies are much better than the stuff of the 50s. Notice most of them are animated films? Easier to turn 2D into 2.5 or 3D movies. Games? Kids love em. |

Keeping Your Work and Life in Balance
| |
| Do you remember when hotel rooms didn't have coffee makers? I recall vividly the first time I walked into a hotel room and discovered a coffee maker. I didn't even drink coffee back then, but I made it, simply because having the coffee pot was so cool. Then people got used to it. Customers got spoiled. They wanted more.
The bad news is that it doesn't stop. People will always get used to things the way they are, become more demanding, and wanting more. Such it is with technology and speed. Everyone asks me when things will "return to normal" and "slow down." It won't. The speed at which you're operating is now what's expected. Welcome to the new normal! |

How to be an Audience Arsonist - Light a Fire of Possibility
| |
| A body at rest tends to stay at rest…
- Sir Isaac Newton
Sir Isaac got it right: a body at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. Want proof? Peek around the curtain at audience members listening to a dull, flat, run-of-the-mill speaker at your next convention. Those bodies aren’t moving. They’re at rest. In fact, some of them are asleep. An "audience arsonist" can overcome that inertia and light a fire that moves them to action.
The value of any event – a global company’s annual gathering, a sales convention, association meeting or any other professional event – is in the information and attitude audience members take with them on those return flights home.
An Audience Arsonist is unique. They have the ability to "light a fire" under an audience and move them to action. Learn how to do that.
