This not only demonstrates empathy and consideration but also shows that you are invested in providing value to your audience.

This allows you to craft your message in a way that is relevant and impactful, increasing the likelihood of a successful presentation. By focusing on audience needs, you can also build credibility and trust with your listeners.
