The document outlines the eight distinctions of a world-class presenter: 1) Get to the point quickly without dramatic distractions. 2) Avoid rambling and keep content concise using less words. 3) Present to persuade by causing changes in mindset, feelings, and behaviors of the audience. 4) Connect with the audience before influencing them by establishing common ground. 5) Sell the "why" of the message before the "what" and "how". 6) Use stories and vivid language to paint pictures in the minds of the audience. 7) Treat the audience as king by helping solve their problems and leaving them better than before. 8) Be authentic rather than polished.

- 8. BEFORE Schemas affect what we notice, how we interpret things and how we make decisions and act. They act like filters, accentuating and downplaying various elements. We use them to classify things, such as when we ‘pigeon-hole’ people. They also help us forecast, predicting what will happen. We even remember and recall things via schemas, using them to ‘encode’ memories. In short, a schema is a mental structure we use to organize and simplify our knowledge of the world around us. We have schemas about ourselves, other people, mechanical devices, food, and in fact almost everything.
