Just as the ambience of a restaurant can enhance the dining experience, the layout of a room can increase the WOW effect on your audience! We don’t want to cause you extra work and we are very flexible, but sometimes paying attention to certain details can lead to superior results.

• To improve the atmosphere in the room, it is preferable that the attendees be seated close to each other, while respecting the actual government rules of social distancing. Do not try to use all the space available in a room. Rather, it is best for your participants to be able to interact with others while remaining at a legal distance.
• To maximize the attention of participants, the first tables or chairs should be located within 2–3 meters of the speaker.
• Room temperature is crucial to have a successful event, yet it is too often overlooked. Participants usually become agitated or unfocused when the room is too warm or too cold. Ideally, cooler settings are preferable to warmer settings. We recommend adjusting the room temperature anywhere between 19.5⁰C and 21⁰C (67 to 70⁰F). Please make sure the room temperature is adequate at least one hour before the event.
• Jasmin’s keynotes and workshops are very interactive and engaging, so please try to fill the seats in the front of the room for energy. The empty seats should be at the back of the room (not in front). We aim for physical group cohesion. It also prevents latecomers from interrupting the presentation.
• In smaller, round-table settings, please advise participants to sit on one side of the table (in the shape of a half-moon) so that all participants have a good view of the stage and screen.
• To facilitate the memorization of the keynote and its quick applicability into concrete actions, we strongly suggest that pads and pencils be available for participants. Most hotels provide these items on request. Note that this suggestion is especially important if an educational goal is sought during the keynote or workshop.

Yes, with pleasure! When time permits, Jasmin enjoys interacting with participants after his presentation, answering their questions and having a face-to-face discussion. He is always willing to extend the WOW effect beyond the stage, as much as possible.

Yes. Jasmin can provide, upon request, additional content such as the slides, as well as a summary of key points for all the participants. It’s a great way to extend the impact of the presentation over time.

In fact, from experience, many managers use these tools later on during their meetings to bring the elements of the keynote to life within the organization.

Yes, as long as it is available. Jasmin likes to participate in other key moments of the event (panel discussion, meal with the leaders, presence at the cocktail party, etc.). This allows Jasmin to deepen the quality of discussions and to thank the people present.

Absolutely! In fact, the vast majority of Jasmin’s clients have hired him on several occasions for different events. Each presentation is unique, with new content, relevant and adapted to the evolution of your reality.

Jasmin offers various complementary keynotes, which can be integrated into a training cycle, a series of events or an internal mobilization program. It is also possible to build a logical sequence, for example:

• An inspiring keynote presentation;
• A more in-depth workshop a few weeks later;
• A thematic relaunch or a new theme the following year.

In short, Jasmin often becomes a long-term strategic ally for his clients. He enjoys building long-lasting relationships based on trust, impact and continuous evolution.
