I recently suggested to a leader I was coaching that he adds some humor to his presentation. He proclaimed with some indignation, But I’m a serious speaker.

The drier the content of a presentation, the harder it can be for the audience to stay attentive. My inevitable response to my coaching client was, ‘Do you want to be a serious speaker or a speaker who is taken seriously?’
