An excellent presentation is more about self-control and discipline, rather than any earthshaking development that you may unveil. It is all about your execution and delivery.
You can try to keep up with the plethora of tips that experienced presenters share. But listed below are the DON’Ts. This helps you avoid getting disqualified or having your speech remembered for the mistakes you made. Here are 5 of these tips to prevent your presentation from going astray:
Prepare notes, but don't read from these. Use memory cards instead.
Your slides should prompt your speech, and not copy it. Keep its content short and crisp. You should be the one explaining the details.
Find the optimal speed of words by practicing how your message can be more comprehensive. Remember, you have to talk to a diverse audience.
Know how you can effectively use the time allotted to your presentation and let it not only consist of you talking and your audience being forced to listen. Stir discussions, ask questions, and use pauses in between for that dramatic effect.
The most important quality of a presenter, a showman lies in the body language, the vibe he/she radiates, and the connection built with the audience. Body language plays a huge role in maintaining the audience's attention, and to keep them engrossed.
