1.3. Making Presentations: Key Points
This paper has been divided into 5 sections
The following checklist is a guide for your preparation.
1. Thinking About You're Audience
Determine the level of understanding
What are their expectations
Ask around
2. Preparing your Presentation
Draw up a plan, with time limits, and identify objectives (max. of 3)
Be creative – brainstorm and mindmap
KISS: keep it short and simple
Use a variety of visual aids – but not too many
Know your room and equipment
3. Overcoming Nerves
Rehearse beforehand
Don't have too much material
Practice with equipment
Get perspective, think positive, use relaxation exercises
Be yourself!
4. The Presentation itself
Stand up, move around, establish eye contact
Don't be note-bound
Avoid fillers, runaways and apologies
Make it 3D
Project your voice
5. Questions
If it's a long presentation, make it interactive
Anticipate questions and formulate answers beforehand
Don't gather up notes and lose concentration
Ask for clarification if confused, repeat it for benefit of whole audience
Provide short and sharp answers
Speak to entire audience and not one questioner
