Why humor doesn't work in speech

Because, audiences are not funny. Their questions are not funny. In fact, their questions are scary. 

Presenters are serious when it comes to preparing FAQs – No Humor Please

The day before the presentation, Presenters are smart enough to guess the questions that the audiences might ask. So the presenters seriously list 4441 most frequently asked audiences' questions about topic and then spend the entire night by-hearting the answers. Presenter is now confident to impress and amuse the audience.

Audiences are Humorous when it comes to breaking the prepared FAQs

But the real show begins when the presenter is mystified to hear 4444441 questions, other than those thoroughly prepared 4441 questions, are being asked for which the presenter does not have even a molecule of clue.

Answering questions that presenters don’t know is not humorous

Is this the way the corporate presentations work? Presenters would have happily performed -- jumping in joy – if the audiences demanded the presenters to even sing a song in parrot's voice, echo like Tarzan, or even walk like a gorilla. But asking the presenter to answer those 4444441 questions that are out of syllabus is not funny -- nor humorous. Forget about making an attempt to answer these questions, the presenter has no air to breathe.

Allow the presenters to be themselves 

Why do audiences ask questions? Why audience just don't keep quiet and allow the presenter to read slide after slide without missing even those full-stops and commas and facilitate the audience who have no clue what those punctuation stand for.

Questions suppress the presenters’ sense of humor

But wait a minute, does that mean audience should never ask any questions to the presenter? No, that is not the point. As audiences, they have all the right to ask questions. In fact, that is why audiences are there for. But audience should mindfully choose questions that could be answered by the presenter such as:

• What is your name?

• Do we have a coffee break?

• When are you closing the session?

And not questions like 

• Why is your presentation so boring?

• What is the topic that you are talking about?

• Your nose remained that way since your birth or only after smelling the mosquito coils?

These questions make presenters unhappy and suppress them in bringing out their sense of humor. They want to be funny and hilarious, crack jokes and share humorous incidents, but they can’t because of those above questions.

Presenters Love audience who do not ask questions

Try this next time. Even before the presentation starts, you, as an audience, promise your presenter that you will not ask any questions through out the session and see how excited the presenter becomes to bring out humor skills till the lie is realized.

Sometimes audience are talkative they talk so much that presenters forget their roles.

When a presentation is bothering form other room: can you be a bit louder we are not able to hear anything that you say.

Sometimes there are more presenters than the audience.

It is recommended not to be confused by the black eyes of the present for the presenter wouldn't have slept the previous might as he/she was preparing for the speech of course I have 2 good children but do I have good schools to admit them?

1st line of the speech "waste no time; go now and build you nation…"

Some presenters commits a mistake of choosing an unusual subject but it shouldn't be so unusual that there are no audience at all for this strange topic.

Some presenters browse through website, find reference, plain English would definitely help

Presenting is easier than dropping over a cliff or drowning in the nearest creek. Once the presenter understand the basics -- what basics? -- it is as easy as changing the TV channels or taking a photocopy.
