Matthew Annis pointed out three important lessons he learned while project managing a keynote presentation.

1. Structure must be apart of any project when working with a diverse group.
2. A transparent process must be implemented so that everyone can view everyone's ideas and input on a project.
3. Finally, the presentation needs to be attractive and engage the audience that you are presenting information to.
