Nancy, that feels as close to the point as anything else here. I’m exhausted. If I had cut any corners anywhere during the process I’m sure I wouldn’t be feeling quite so tired, but no way the experience would’ve been so satisfying.

Dan’s series indicates just how long it takes to plan and execute a workshop. I’ve done a lot of national, state and local presentations over the last 10 years. I’ve been paid as much as $1000.00 a day, probably figures to be about $7.00 to $10.00 an hour for prep time.

I did an hour long presentation for my school district in June–it was a new workshop for me–took 20-30 hours of prep. Got the check the other day. The district paid me $23.34. Yikes! Last time I’ll present for them.

Your series has been a breath of fresh air – if only I could get some district-level folks to read it, I might enjoy meetings a whole lot more!!

Will you video record this and have it on YouTube at any point? It would be cool to see your final presentation after seeing the process that you took to develop it.

Thanks a ton for posting all of this. I have some staff presentations to do this upcoming school year, and you have definitely shaped how I will put those together.

It’s kind of nice knowing that the bar on presentation has been set so low, since I’ve invested so much. But that I’ve only arrived at that sense of security because you and pretty much everyone I’ll be talking with today have been mauled by lousy PowerPoint makes me kinda ill.
