面对一群学测一阶刚放榜的高中生们,大家的心情受到了不小的冲击,也还没平复。如何能快速的透过一场演讲,让大家不止安心,还能受到启发……这对平常面对企业成人教学的我,真的是一种挑战啊!不过,看起来我做得还不错!因为有学生说"早上还带着没干的眼泪走进视听教室,最后是带着满足的微笑走出去"(引述学生的心得)。甚至有孩子在课后心得写下"您的这一句话给了我很大的动力与启发……能有机会听到您的演讲是一辈子的福气!"(心得公开留在 FB 在此,保证与成绩无关 XD)。像这样的学习,是如何创造的?我先来还原现场,逐步拆解,让大家知道:一场演讲的背后,我是怎么思考的。也许大家未来也有机会,面对不同的对象,创造出更精彩的演讲或课程。 换位思考、预期成果 在每一场课程或演讲前,我总是会先想象一下"如果我是坐在台下的学生,我在想什么?听完会有什么收获?"。如果能切换成这样的角度,对整个课程的目标思考会很有帮助。我想象回到我高中的时候,面对台上有一个中年大叔,要来对我们演讲,

许多人在准备简报时,一开始常常遇到巨大的 GAP,也就是不知道从何开始,或是内容与观众的期待有落差。而缩小落差的方法,用的也是 G.A.P. 方法!也就是先问自己:简报的目的是什么(Goal)?目标观众是谁(Audience)?我希望达成什么样的目标(Purpose)?透过这三个问题,你就可以找到一个明确的方向,开始准备你的简报。并且在过程中持续聚焦,让简报有更好的成效。接下来让我们依序来看看这三个问题的重要性。(也可以看看福哥的线上课:简报的技术,有更多的画面与实例哦) G:找出简报的目的(Goal) 在正式开始制作简报之前,我们要先问自己:"这场简报的目的是什么?"以我先前受邀在104人力银行的活动演讲为例,主题是"人生下半场,用学习改变人生"。虽然我马上就答应了这个邀约(毕竟主办人Will是我的好朋友),但一开始我也不确定该讲些什么内容。这时候,我仔细看了整场活动的规划和其他讲者的主题,发现我的任务是跟大家分享:如何透过学习来突破瓶颈。所以,简报的目的应该是透过我的故事和经验,
