How much can the brain absorb?

Written by Muti

Two solid days of sitting through one guest speaker after another is sometimes a hard ask for the brain to stay focus and not wander off. The meeting is running late, there is an hour left to finish off and all the people wanted to do is close it down and move on for cocktail drinks. Now imagine yourself coming on as the final guest speaker. What can you do or say to capture the weary attention of an already thirsty audience? Try this opening line a retired marketing personality and director of more than 10 government and company boards, gave. He was the last speaker at the tourism conference last week. “I’ll try and hurry it up because I know that the brain can only absorb what the arse can endure.”
