So I take the good with the bad on the DGIQ ratings & comments & work to improve the next presentations I give. I felt pretty good after my Data Strategy session at PASS, & it would seem the feedback (attached for your reference) is more in line with how I felt. Over 100 attendees, 96 officially registered, 23 left evaluations. Averages out of 5 stars:

Content expectations: 4.57

Overall content: 4.57

Speaker knowledge: 4.87

Speaker presentation skills: 4.74

⭐Make this session a full day workshop & cover Data Governance as well.

👂🏼Unfortunately, Data Governance would be more than an entire day on its own so maybe a 2 day Pre-Con?

⭐Enjoyed the anecdotes.

👂🏼I learned from my DGIQ feedback about sharing personal & practical examples & made the improvement.

⭐Great session but wasn't able to follow the flow of the slide deck, high density information.

👂🏼I preached many times in the presentation not to drink from the fire hose, yet I have to admit, my presentation was the fire hose. This inspires me to make better visual transitions so we always go back to the roadmap slide to keep the flow on track.

⭐Loved this session, one of the best presenters at PASS this year. A lot of info to get through & stayed on track.

👂🏼One of the best presenters at PASS? 😳 I'm not worthy!

⭐Feel uninformed about business & data strategy. Helped me see where my work connects & ways I can contribute more effectively.

👂🏼I am SO glad to have connected the dots for even 1 person out of 100.

⭐Informative & useful. Some repetition, reminders, & fresh ideas that made attending worthwhile & valuable.

👂🏼This one ended up being the comment that resonated with me most. This is HOW presentations should be!

⭐Was more intricate than expected. Cher is a very charismatic speaker.

👂🏼Expectations are SUPER hard to manage & meet. Charismatic is very kind, I am passionate & animated (lots of hand gestures) & I hope to be engaging and even entertaining at times.

So you might ask, why do you do it?

✔️I have 35+ years of experience to share that others can learn from.

✔️I like to push past my fears, which stage time, dancing or speaking, has always been for me.

✔️Speaking tests me on my subject matter knowledge & expertise.
