Authentic. That's the word, JT.

One of the beautiful outcomes of your advice is that your work is more authentic. People like authentic. Authentic is also much, much easier to present.

Virg, that's the essence, to give a presentation or a written piece a "voice." It really does show!

Hi Timo.

Thanks much. That group editing gig is no joy. At the end, no one is completely happy, and the product suffers. I'm a fan of one strong editor and a great writer working together. Then it's magic.

Your guidance is right on. And also we each have our own style and approach that is unique -- that uniqueness adds value -- you can not be someone else - gain input and feedback, but then you decide what you are most comfortable with and make the presentation yours - you will then present with full ownership and it will show!

Great!
Thank you for this article, which made me smile.
i was part of this "group editing", during a few publications (not presentations), that i wrote and it was awful to organize a dozen of editors...
