Meetings Can Be Murder
Adopting your own personal "Murder Board" could help keep people who attend your meetings from wanting to kill you.
From Larry Tracy's article (linked below):
"The Murder Board is a realistic simulation of the actual presentation to be made. Colleagues role-play the audience, asking the types of questions his specific group is likely to ask. It is intended to be more difficult than the actual presentation. If you want to become an effective and persuasive presenter, this realistic practice session is the most effective shortcut to speaking excellence. It allows you to make your mistakes when they don't count, increasing the odds that you will shine when you make the actual presentation."
