I'm the same way, and honestly I don't understand why.
I'm not sure it's embarrassment per se, because nobody else is in the room.
But something about doing a dry run, in private, is so unpleasant that I can't make myself do it. Despite the apparent benefits.
- beryilma 3y agoIn my experience, dry-runs, at least in front of an insider audience, are not a real assessment of the content, nor the delivery. It doesn't feel natural as in front of the real audience. Any I rarely get any useful feedback anyway: always some stupid, non-consequential remarks that tend to turn everything to corporate speak with no allowance for personal style. Fad of the day at my company is evidence-assertion style. And I am sick of it...
