Reading slides in shortlisted interviews doesn't engage prospects.

🔥Top-tier communicators in A/E/C know how to read the room.

Reading the room means you notice peoples' facial expressions, body language, and energy.

Do people in your presentations look distracted, impatient, or confused?

😮You must notice what people aren't saying.😮

Then, you can subtly re-engage and bring prospects back to your message without missing a beat.🎯
