Many of us have Quality Assurance (QA) groups in our organizations, and the natural assumption might be that these groups are responsible for the quality of our products.

Key to improving presentations is to focus on where your're audience is, not where you are, or where you want them to be. To do that, you must make a connection first.

However, it is also not enough just to successfully execute a project to completion. A successful project that is not implemented or used because it doesn't meet the customer's or user's r...
