In this episode of Speaker Dynamics, Karin Reed sits down with communication coach and tech specialist Maggie Miller to explore how using GenAI for presentations can make you a stronger, more confident speaker rather than a robotic one. Maggie shares how she moved from skepticism to strategy. She first experimented with AI for travel planning before recognizing the real opportunity for presenters. When it comes to using GenAI for presentations, the biggest advantages are speed, sharper idea generation, and better practice tools. That means faster outlines, stronger opening hooks, tighter storytelling, and platforms that provide delivery feedback and help eliminate filler words. They also address a concern many leaders have. Will AI strip away authenticity? Maggie’s perspective is clear. AI should support your thinking, not replace it. When you are using GenAI for presentations, it works like a behind the scenes assistant. It helps with structuring a presentation, brainstorming stories, and refining language, while you bring the voice, judgment, and emotional intelligence. You will also hear practical guidance on writing better prompts, protecting data privacy, fact checking AI outputs, and choosing the right tools for speakers. For leaders focused on presentation skills and authentic leadership communication, this conversation offers a realistic and grounded path forward. If you have been hesitant, this episode will show you how to start small and build confidence quickly.
