OK Speakers, I hate to say “I Told You So!“ but As I said in blog post #2 In Public Speaking, we Never, Ever assume the Mic’s off! Here’s a recent example Why: http://bit.ly/c7QrO0. This will be a Costly error for Gordon Brown and Labour in the upcoming election. Just keep in mind folks, this could be You.
-update: Brown Lost.
At a Conference table, on a Video Chat, or participating in an On-line Conference call, If you are At, Near, or even See a microphone, assume it’s on or “hot” and act accordingly. Think before you Speak. Feeling rushed, tired, elated, or exasperated is no reason to let down your guard. Remember, What’s said on the web, stays on the web.
Forewarned is Forearmed.
