Effective Presentation Delivery:
Making an Impact
Title
Article
Understanding Your Audience
Before giving your presentation:
Research
who will be listening to you
Think
about what they already know
Consider
what they need to learn
Adjust your language and
examples to match their background
Managing Your Time
Always
respect the time limit given
Practice
your presentation with a timer
Plan
to finish a few minutes early
Divide
your presentation into clear sections with time estimates
If you’re running out
of time, know which parts you can shorten
Body Language Tips
Do:
Stand
straight but relaxed (don’t slouch)
Keep
an open-body stance
Make
eye contact with different people
Use
natural hand gestures to emphasize points
Move
a little, but with purpose
Smile
when appropriate
Move/Turn/Look to the
left, to the center, to the right
Don’t:
Put
hands in pockets
Cross
your arms
Look
only at your notes or slides
Stand
completely still like a statue
Fidget or play with
objects
Visual Aids
Not
limited to PPT
White
board, a large flip chart, posters on easel
Use
hands-on visual aids, but don’t over do it
Keep
slides simple with minimal text
Use
large, clear fonts
Include
helpful images, charts, and diagrams
One
main idea per slide
Make
sure everyone can read everything
Absolutely NO
MISSPELLINGS
Speaking Clearly
Talk
slower than in normal conversation
Pronounce
each word carefully
Pause
between important points
Vary
your voice to show enthusiasm
Speak loudly enough for
everyone to hear
Dealing with Nervousness
Practice
many times before the real presentation
Take
deep breaths before starting
Remember
that some nervousness is normal
Focus
on your message, not yourself
Prepare extra well for
the beginning (the hardest part)
Engaging Your Audience
Ask
simple questions occasionally
Use
examples from real life
Show
why your topic matters to them
Make
eye contact with different people
Show your own interest
in the topic
Beginning and Ending Strongly
Start with:
A
clear introduction of yourself
(unless
introduced by another)
The
topic and why it’s important
What
you’ll cover
End with:
A
summary of main points
Your
most important message
A
thank you
Time for questions
Questions and Answers
Repeat
questions to make sure everyone heard
Answer
briefly and clearly
It’s
okay to say “I don’t know” if needed
Thank
the person for their question
Look at everyone, not
just the questioner
Practice Makes Perfect
Rehearse
at least 3-5 times
Record
yourself if possible
Practice
in front of friends
Time
yourself
Get feedback and make
improvements
