Frequent PublicSpeakingsSkills.com readers know that the only way to assure your presentation audience will stay with you every step of the way is to maintain proper eye contact throughout your presentation. Proper eye contact involves delivering your presentation as a series of one-on-one conversations with each member of the audience, and holding eye-contact with members through to the end of a thought or complete sentence. Most presenters hold eye contact with any one person no more than one second to effectively bond with your audience, you need to pump that up to a range more like three to eight.

The image to keep in mind here is that you are never delivering to a group of individuals, but rather to individuals in a group. (When people ask me whats the largest number of people Ive ever spoken to, I always answer, one.)

When delivering a PowerPoint presentation, maintaining proper eye contact becomes difficult if your slides are structured like most we see in the corporate world today with way more information than the audience can digest before the speaker feels compels to start speaking. In order to maintain constant eye contact with members of the audience, you must restrict the volume of information that you toss up on the screen at any one time. Otherwise, you will do what most presenters do, which is to spend much of the presentation looking at the screen. In fact, you must restrict each new parcel of information to that which can be absorbed by both you and the audience in just a few seconds ten at the very most.

That will set you up to then smoothly and coherently transfer the information from the screen to the audience. We call the procedure for doing this Absorb, Align, and Address.

Absorb

When new information appears on the screen, all eyes will follow it, and at this point it is OK, and desirable, for you, too, to look to the screen. By doing so, you give permission to the audience to get prepared for whats coming next. Thats all the screen info should include, too: just enough information to set the stage for what you are going to discuss. At this point, because you are not looking at any individual in the group, you must be silent.

Rule Number 9: If your eyes arent locked, your jaw must be.

When you have absorbed the data bite, you can now think for a moment on how to phrase what you want to say to start off. This would not include expounding on the point, but merely filling out the talking points to make a grammatically correct statement.

Align

Once you and your audience have had the opportunity to take in this info, you then need to turn your attention away from the screen, and lock eyes (align) with a member of the audience. This is the most difficult part, physically, to perform, as the natural tendency is to begin speaking as soon as you have formulated your statement.

Address

Locked on, you finally can address your selected member of the audience with your version of the talking point.

Understand that if what youre addressing is a bullet point, this address should not be the actual words. You may always say more than the line on the screen, but never, never any less. Keep in mind that the group will read everything thats on the screen, so if you put words up there but dont speak to them, you are actually insulting your audience: These words arent important enough for me to bother with but I wanted to take up your brains time and effort just the same.

How many times has this happened to you: You go to a presentation and see slide after slide with all kinds of footnotes and small type, or graphs with legends and data to which the presenter never refers? Youre looking at all the elements on the slide trying to figure out which stuff is most important, and then the presenter never even mentions half the stuff youve read. How does that make you feel? For most people, the first slide that contains more information than the presenter chooses not to discuss is the point at which they check out, deciding to figure it all out later from the handout, which, of course, they trash at the first can they see outside the presentation room.

Once learned, the Absorb, Align and Address system is a beautiful thing to behold. Slides designed with this system never suffer from TMI, and thus never have too much for the presenter to deal with. Presenter confidence is high, and the audience feels this big time. The audience is forced to turn their attention to you, because theres not enough information to allow them to jump to their own conclusions. By the same token, you are now able to direct all of your speaking to the audience and not the screen.

But heres the really fun part: When you follow this simple plan for both design and delivery, almost anyone can look and sound like an expert on their subject, regardless of how much prep time theyve put into rehearsing the presentation! We prove this in our corporate training classes by having participants deliver other participants presentations that we have edited and revised to comply with the rules (next chapter). Preferably, off course, you would have a good background in the subject matter, so that you can deliver the meat on the bones part effectively. But if you know to what the talking points refer, and you also know that no more material than you can deliver in just a few seconds will appear, you can actually give a presentation for the very first time and sound like you know what youre talking about!

It should be ensured that the neck of the patient is straight, and his tie and other clothes should be loosened. He should be turned to one side, and a spoon should be placed in between the back teeth so that the tongue is not bitten. If there is any debris nearby, it should be removed so that the patient may not injure himself. The jaw, if tightly closed, should not be forced open to insert the spoon. It should be checked that there is no injury to the head.

At the same time, one should not try to hold the person and try to stop the convulsions, as once an attack occurs, it takes its own time to subside. In general, it is over within 1-2 minutes. It is also important that the patient should be duly cared for till he or she becomes fully conscious. He should be allowed to sleep after the convulsive attack is over, and he should not be disturbed unnecessarily, although he should be constantly kept under watch. However, an emergency / first aid treatment at the spot, and shifting a patient to the hospital should not be unnecessarily delayed.

After the diagnosis of epilepsy has been established in a particular case, the next important step. is the treatment of the condition.

An underlying cause of epilepsy, if available (a brain tumour, etc.), must be treated and given priority. However, drug treatment to control an attack/ s of epilepsy remains the same, whether the patient suffers from a case of idiopathic epilepsy or symptomatic epilepsy, where though the cause has been detected, but nevertheless, drug treatment is needed.

As regards drugs, it is the rule that the patient should be given a single drug as a trial. The drug should commensurate with the type of epilepsy the patient is suffering from. In other words, the type/pattern of the attack of epilepsy decides the choice of the drug. It is highly important that the drug should be given in proper dosages, depending upon the age of the patient.

To begin with, a very minimal quantity of drug should be started, say even one-fourth of the normal dose required, and the dose should be increased gradually, say, weekly, or every 34 days, depending upon the severity of the disease. Otherwise, it is very likely that the drug may cause undue drowsiness in a person, and may be rejected by the patient, especially in the case of a child. However, it is usually well tolerated in most of the cases in due course of time.

Above all, continuity of the drug therapy for the full-length duration of the treatment plays a very significant role in the control of attacks. .

By and large, a properly administered drug treatment works very well, and people with epilepsy get permanent remission after about 3 years of treatment, or may be more in some of the cases. Great patience is the key to success of monotherapy (single drug trial) in cases of epilepsy, and the parents / family members of epileptics, especially, as seen in the case of children, should not compel the physician for a quick control of the disease, or doubt the expertise of the physician, or the authenticity/potency of the drug prescribed.

However, there are some cases which do create a problem, when their attacks are not controlled with a single drug. Provided an appropriate drug has been started, it does work in the majority of the cases, though in a few the effect of the drug may not be up to the mark, so that the patient may get an attack of epilepsy, though much less in intensity as compared the original attack, and the frequencies may also be reduced. In such cases, the physician or specialist makes his own judgement, and either changes or adds another antiepileptic drug, so as to give lasting relief to the patient.

The patient is also required to know about the details of the toxicity of the drug that has been prescribed, so that he can report to his physician well in time. In case the antiepileptic drug is being given to a pregnant woman, its teratogenic effect on the foetus, which may be responsible for congenital abnormalities in the newborn, should be explained to the woman. However, this may not happen in all the cases. It is advisable to seek a consultation with/ or counseling from the physician before the pregnancy is planned.

A healthy lifestyle is the best possible diverticulitis cure. You are responsible for your own health conditions and you will suffer if you are irresponsible in this area. As a matter of fact, the person who gets diverticulitis has not realized yet that his health depends upon the food he takes in everyday. Bad eating habits includes consuming junk food, fast food, drinking alcohol, and eating chocolates on a daily basis. If you have got diverticulitis then this may be the possible reason. You can cure diverticulitis effectively by changing your diet to a high fiber and wholefood diet.

Diverticulitis occurs when some pouches formed on the colon wall get inflamed. In mild cases itself the pain will be unbearable. You can imagine how it will be in a severe case. People have even undergone surgery for removing the pus and infected area from the colon. All this happened just because of a continuous junk and low fiber diet.

When you have a low fiber diet it will start getting difficult to pass stools. You have to apply pressure every time you go to bathroom. After some time your colon will become weak because of the unnecessary pressure you are applying. Gradually the weakest areas will bulge out forming pouches. This condition of having pouches on the walls of colon is known as diverticulosis and the pouches themselves are called diverticula.

You will not even feel the formation of diverticula. So when you continue to have the same food, a small particle goes into the diverticula and causes its inflammation. This results in a diverticulitis attack.

In very light cases, you will be advised to take a high fiber diet in small proportions. This will give your colon rest and prevent pressure from building up. After some days your colon will heal and diverticulitis attack will be over. But the diverticula will be present and if you revert to bad eating habits you may face another attack.

For mild cases, the diverticulitis cure will be a liquid, low fiber diet, rest and some oral antibiotics. In severe cases you will be hospitalized and if needed an operation or surgery will be performed on the diseased portion of your colon to cure diverticulitis. Here the doctors will completely take care of your diverticulitis. You will be discharged once you show some positive signs.

To prevent any form of diverticulitis attack in the future you are advised to have a high fiber, wholesome diet. To cure diverticulitis for good you will have to maintain this new diet. This diverticulitis cure is the best one for long term.

Rabies is a fatal acute viral infection of the central nervous system, and it is one of the most terrifying diseases which afflicts mankind.

Although the disease is more prevalent in tropical countries, it occurs worldwide, and its incidence is ever increasing.

The disease is usually caused by the bite of a rabid dog. The virus of rabies is present in the saliva of the rabid dog, and when such a dog bites a person, the saliva infected with the rabies-virus is transmitted into the body of the victim.

Although the disease commonly occurs through the bite of a rabid dog, it may also manifest itself following the bite of a cat, wolf, jackal, monkey, cow, buffalo, etc. However, rat-bite does not cause rabies.

A bite is the usual mode of transmission of the disease. However, it may also occur if virus-laden saliva comes in contact with broken skin or a wound, or if one is licked by an infected animal. After being bitten by a rabid dog, the rabies virus becomes sequestered, i.e. it remains dormant at the site of the bite, without causing any harm to the patient. From here the virus travels slowly along the nerves of the bitten extremity, and reaches the central nervous system. It is interesting to note that while the virus travels along the nerves, it does not cause any significant damage to these nerves. On the other hand, it causes extensive damage to the central nervous system, making the condition of the patient horrible. It may, therefore, be said that the rabies virus truly acts like a thief. It gets into the body and ~limbs to the central nervous system with the help of the nerves, without causing any serious harm either to the nerves or to the site of the bite from where it has entered.

The virus also reaches the salivary glands through the nerves and reaches the saliva either of the man or of the animal whom a rabid animal has bitten. This is how the disease is transmitted through the saliva of a rabid animal. However, transmission from man to man does not occur. But, at the same time, all precautions must be taken by the family members/ friends and all others who come in contact with the patient. They should all take preventive measures and, in any case, the saliva of the patient containing virus, should not come in their contact especially with a wound/ abrasion/ cut, otherwise they are also likely to be infected. Gloves, aprons, face-masks, caps, glasses, etc., should be used. When the patient becomes violent, he may spit saliva on the persons/attendants standing nearby. Moreover, there is also excessive secretion of saliva in these cases.

Following the bite, urgent steps of treatment, i.e., care of the wound, etc., including vaccination are required to be taken, so that the disease does not manifest itself in clinical form. Once the clinical manifestations appear, the patient dies within seven days. However, the following symptomatology of the disease is required to be known to all so that those who are still ignorant can be helped, and necessary early steps of treatment can be taken, with the hope of saving the life of the afflicted person.

KPO outsourcing companies typically work in the fields of investment banking research, business and market research, valuation research, R&D, patent research, legal and insurance claim processing, legal research, sales and marketing research, case writing, product and brand management, investment analysis, finance and accounting advisory service, educational services, medical services, network management, report preparation and writing, report presentations and many others. The employees of KPO outsourcing firms are normally highly skilled and educated people, who can work independently on serious projects.

Companies, wishing to create affiliations or simply outsource to KPO outsourcing countries, benefit from it in a number of ways. When hiring a KPO outsourcing company in India, for example, an American company gets an opportunity to work in word class infrastructure, which provides for the stability of the business, and receives security systems, which ensure high standards of security. It also receives well-educated specialists with deep expertise in the fields of specialization, who can ensure productive work and keep up with the tasks throughout the whole process. It should be noted here that while hiring qualified staff from KPO outsourcing firms, understaffed businesses get a great opportunity to minimize their costs, by means of delegating their tasks to workers who cost less.

Nevertheless, the advantages of turning to KPO outsourcing companies do not merely deal with the cost savings factor. Just like with BPO, companies employing KPO outsourcing firms save their precious time and can get more operational efficiencies by means of turning to core business goals and using a number of skills, technology and services available.

According to the estimates of experts in the field, the number of KPO outsourcing businesses all over the world is bound to increase by 50 per cent by the year 2010; more than half of them will most probably appear in India. Additionally, the Indian KPO outsourcing companies are expected to take on more than 250,000 KPO specialists by the given date, which is ten times more than the current figure of 25,000 workers. While India will certainly remain a leader, such countries as China, Russia, Ireland, the Czech Republic, and Israel will also grow numerous KPO outsourcing businesses.

As long as the sphere of KPO outsourcing services has only started to grow, there is still time to think, whether this kind of business solution is suitable for the company you run. There may certainly appear some inconveniences, connected with having to cooperate on a long distance. For instance, you may not want to travel far away quite often in order to be sure that everything runs as it should be. Therefore, the decision you will finally make should be comprehensive, well-thought, and made by you.
