Well in today's lesson we are gonna talk about
Steve Jobs
Yes, the co-founder of Apple but also known
as master presenter. Have you ever got a chance
to see the Apple presentations? They are absolutely
amazing. Well yes, Steve Jobs was not just
focused on statistics and technology but was
also focused on on communication skills. So
in today's world it's important for our leaders
and entrepreneurs to carry on his legacy.
Therefore I am gonna share some techniques,
presentation techniques of Steve Jobs so that
you present just like him.
The first thing that Steve jobs totally believed
in is expressing your passion. Well, he loved
his products and he was always so enthusiastic
about his products. And for the first time
when the I phone was launched, you know what
was the first thing that he said with a big
smile on his face? well he said "It's doggone
gorgeous" He was so enthusiastic about it
because he loved his products. So it's important
for you to add some positive adjectives that
would show your enthusiasm about what you
are presenting. so when you are giving a presentation
it's important for you to use words like it's
gorgeous, it's amazing , it's absolutely cool
, it's fantastic ! This would make a difference.
Because this would show that whatever you
are saying you are very enthusiastic about
it and you totally believe in this idea and
therefore you are presenting it. Now, these
days audience really gives you a chance to
show your enthusiasm they welcome this enthusiasm
because if they are putting in time and they
are here to listen to your presentation then
they don't want to get bored. They would like
to hear something new, something creative
and something which is extremely amazing.
So go ahead show that enthusiasm in your presentation
skills and that would make a difference. Your
audience will listen to you and they would
really not go to sleep. So go ahead, believe
in your passion and more than that express
your passion enthusiastically.
Another thing Steve Jobs totally believed
in was Know your story well. Now when we talk
about presentations its important for us to
know our story well which means to know our
content really well. Now this comes with lots
of practice and of course scripting your presentation.
You can't be spontaneous with your presentations,
if you can be spontaneous then it is a great
thing a great skill but when you are presenting
in front of a big crowd in front of so many
people, wouldn't it be better if you are well
prepared. So, which means its important for
you to be very comfortable with the words
or with the points that you are gonna use
in your presentation. This would show your
confidence and this would show that you are
very keen in presenting this. In fact Steve
Jobs use to always very meticulously on scripting
and practicing without any visual effects.
So he use to go on and on with his presentation
without using slides and finally when the
D day arrived his presentations were absolutely
amazing and which we all know about it, right!
So, please make sure that you know your content
well, you know your story well and trust me
this would really work out for you.
Another thing that Steve Jobs believed in
was Don't Sweat on small stuff
Well, usually when people are presenting something
there are few mistakes that well end up doing.
Oh Yes, we are human beings! We all make mistakes.
But the moment we get nervous and it shows
up on your face, you are calling for attention.
So, Steve Jobs totally believed that its not
important to give too much of attention on
these minor mistakes, just smile and keep
going. Now , in fact once what happened with
Steve jobs was, he wanted to show some photographs
from a live website. So while he waited and
the audience were waiting to see the pictures
the screen went black. It didn't bother Steve
Jobs at all. What he did was , he just smiled
and said " Well I guess the pictures don't
wanna show up this morning" and that's about
it, he didn't get nervous, he didn't lose
his confidence he kept going. What he did
was, he recapped all the points that he had
already mentioned in his presentation and
that's it, the audience was extremely happy
with that presentation. So that's what even
you need to adapt. this technique of Steve
Jobs is absolutely amazing. Do not give too
much of attention on minor mistakes,minor
glitches, just keep going because if you do
get nervous you will lose your confidence
you will go blank and things will not work
for you. So, just ignore them.
Now the most important and the favorite part
for Jobs was rehearse, rehearse and rehearse.
Well every intricate presentation that he
had to present he would always rehearse for
hours, be it with demonstrations, be it with
visual effects and of course with outside
speakers. The first thing that he would do
is rehearse the presentation aloud for many
hours. Now why he did so? because he wanted
to give his best to his audience. He believed
that if you present well,things are gonna
be understood and people will take you seriously.
So very well he use to script his presentations
and then many people from apple who have worked
with him had also mentioned that he use to
just lock himself in a room and he use to
rehearse his presentations again and again
and that too aloud. So the next time you have
a presentation don't just be very over confident,
that yes you will be able to do it, well rehearse.
Because such a big personality like Steve
Jobs rehearsed as well, so wouldn't it be
nice for you to rehearse it several times
so that the best thing comes out of you. Right!
So go ahead ,keep practicing , do it in front
of people, do it in front of a mirror. These
things really work. So keep practicing.
That's all from me now , so if you wanna be
a master presenter just like Steve Jobs then
go ahead and practice these techniques. Try
to build a great connection with your audience
because Steve Jobs audience totally loved
him for his presentation skills and if you
want that your presentations should all be
enjoyed by each and everyone then follow these
techniques and trust me you will do great.
