G’DAY WORLD #312 – Wayne Turmel on Great Web Meetings
Posted on 04. Feb, 2008 by Cameron Reilly in entrepreneurialism, great presentations, Podcast
I’m sure you have all sat in “virtual” meetings at your place of work that would have bored a monk. I remember sitting in on “virtual team meetings” in my Microsoft days when I and other members of the team would be playing each other on XBOX Live while our manager droned on. It doesn’t have to be that way and my guest today will tell you why.
W. Wayne Turmel (aka dubdub) is the host of TPN’s Cranky Middle Manager and Working Week podcasts, as well as a stand-up comedian, author, manager…. and in 2008 he adds a new title to his portfolio – entrepreneur. We had a chat recently about his new business, Great Web Meetings, about becoming an entrepreneur, and other things.
Wayne has a long history as a presenter, trainer and expert in management and communication skills. He has taught Presentation Skills and Sales to Fortune 500 clients in his role as Director of Faculty for Communispond.

Great Presentations
Posted on 03. Sep, 2007 by Cameron Reilly in great presentations
Watching Chris Brogan’s slide deck made me think about the other truly great presentations I’ve seen over the last decade. They are truly rare.
Here’s my short list that I’d love to learn to mimic:
Dick Hardt’s Identity 2.0 – saw this one in NYC in 2005, truly wonderful.
David Weinberger always does a great job as well. His presentations tend to be part photograph, part hand-writing. Check out this one he did recently to the Googles.
