How to give a good presentation.
This video will help you to build up skills
to give a good presentation with simple tips
and tricks.
Some people live for making presentations;
others consider it their worst nightmare.
It could be five people in a boardroom or
500 in the audience, but if you are the presenter
the spotlight is on you.
You'll either be the hero or the goat.
No need to panic.
Here are five ways to help make your presentation
astounding and enjoy the opportunity to bask
in the limelight.
1.
Give it Focus
No one is impressed by a presentation that
rambles.
Rambling happens when the speaker is both
self-indulgent and unorganized.
Your purpose and prose must be specifically
directed to interests of your listeners or
they will mentally shut you down.
Even if you hit upon a topic of interest,
you will lose them quickly if they can't follow
the logic of your ideas.
Outline the structure of your presentation
in a way that people can follow easily.
Research your audience to make sure the topic
is truly of interest.
Promoting the benefits of beef at a vegetarian
conference will likely empty your venue no
matter how strong your passion for steak.
2.
Tell Compelling Stories
There must be a reason you are presenting
to these people.
Most likely you want them to take action of
some kind.
Maybe you want them to write you a check,
get involved in an activity, or to make something
happen in their own lives.
They won't likely take action just because
you tell them to do so.
You need to connect with them emotionally
and inspire them to change behavior.
Stories do more for emotional connection than
any other speech technique.
The more personal and authentic, the more
powerful the response you'll receive.
Learn how to construct stories that excite,
motivate and compel people to action.
Most importantly, make sure your stories havehumor
and Aha! moments to make them memorable.
3.
Give an Entertaining Performance
Not every presenter has to be an actor or
comedian, but no one wants to listen to someone
drone on in dull monotone.
There are powerful dynamics in movement and
vocal inflections that will help your listeners
feel your passion and energy.
Give them an awesome experience.
Take the time to create a script and memorize
it so you own the material.
You don't have to know it word for word but
you should be able to clearly articulate the
key points without your notes.
Then you need to rehearse... a lot.
As painful as it might be, watch yourself
on video and work to remove Uhhs, Ummsand
physical tics so you appear polished and comfortable.
Find a friend with a performance background
to coach you so your diction is clear, you
project emotion, and you connect with your
eyes.
Make your audience knows they are worth your
effort.
4.
Use Media Only to Enhance
PowerPoint, visuals and video are powerful
presentation tools when used correctly.
But they can be disastrous distractions when
misused.
They should never replace you as the provider
of expertise.
Don't ever let your audience feel they would
have been better off if you had just emailed
them the deck.
Keep your PowerPoint to a few words and never
read from the screen in the presentation.
Ask yourself if a slide or video is truly
necessary before adding anything.
Visuals are good for making an emotional connection
only if 
they are relevant and required, otherwise
best to just leave the projector off 
and focus more on your storytelling and performance
skills.
5.
Create a Worthy Leave-Behind
So you just delivered the best presentation
ever.
Now your audience heads off to the next speaker,
to lunch or back to their desks.
People are busy and no matter how much you
impressed them they will turn their attentions
elsewhere.
Give them something to remember you by.
Professional speakers will give them a 
book or at least a couple of chapters.
It might be as simple as a small flyer or
premium item.
Whatever it is, make sure it's relevant to
your compelling story and reminds them of
the action they should take.
Be clever and appropriate so people will appreciate
your thoughtfulness as well 
as your ideas.
