1 Know your purpose and audience

Before you start planning your presentation, you need to define your purpose and audience. What is the main goal of your presentation? What do you want your audience to learn, do, or feel after listening to you? Who are your audience and what are their needs, interests, and expectations? Knowing your purpose and audience will help you narrow down your scope, focus on the most relevant and important points, and tailor your tone, style, and language accordingly.

Many of us make the mistake of starting with what we want to say rather than thinking about what our audience needs to hear. What do you want them to know? How do you want them to feel? What do you want them to do as a result of your communication? Consider: 1) Understanding the audience’s knowledge level on the topic ensures that the information is neither too basic nor too complex. 2) Attitudes - Are they likely to be supportive or skeptical? Identifying this helps tailor the tone and approach. 3) Anticipating points of resistance, like budget concerns, and preparing reasoned responses shows that we've thought through potential objections, adding credibility to our message.

2 Create an outline and a storyboard

An outline is a basic structure of your presentation that shows the main sections, subtopics, and key points. A storyboard is a visual representation of your outline that shows how you will use slides, images, charts, or other visual aids to support your points. Creating an outline and a storyboard will help you organize your ideas logically, sequence them effectively, and identify any gaps or redundancies in your content. You can use tools like mind maps, flowcharts, or index cards to create your outline and storyboard.

Creating an outline and a storyboard is fundamental in organizing and visualizing your presentation. Start with an outline to break down the main sections, subtopics, and key points. This sets the framework of your content, ensuring logical flow and coherence. Next, translate your outline into a storyboard. Here, visualize how each part of your talk will be represented using slides, images, charts, or other visuals. This step helps you see the actual sequence and impact of your content, spotting any gaps or redundancies early on. Utilize tools like mind maps, flowcharts, or index cards to efficiently craft your outline and storyboard, paving the way for a well-structured and engaging presentation.

3 Use the rule of three

The rule of three is a principle that suggests that people can remember and process three main points or ideas better than more or less. Therefore, you can use the rule of three to simplify and structure your presentation. For example, you can divide your presentation into three main sections: introduction, body, and conclusion. You can also limit each section to three subtopics or points. You can also use the rule of three to create catchy phrases, slogans, or examples that reinforce your message.

4 Follow a clear and consistent format

A clear and consistent format will help your audience follow your presentation and understand your message. You can use a format that follows the basic structure of introduction, body, and conclusion, or you can use a format that suits your purpose and topic, such as problem-solution, compare-contrast, or chronological. Whatever format you choose, make sure you follow it throughout your presentation and use transitions, signposts, and summaries to guide your audience from one section to another.

Use clear and concise headings and subheadings to organize the content of each slide. Use bullet points or short paragraphs to present information, rather than long blocks of text. Use images, charts, and diagrams to supplement the text and make the information more visually appealing.

Include transition slides between major sections to signal shifts in topics. These slides provide a brief overview of what's coming next, helping the audience stay engaged.

5 Use visual aids wisely

Visual aids can be a great addition to your presentation, adding interest, clarity, and impact to your points. However, they can also be a distraction if used incorrectly. To ensure you use visual aids wisely, stick to some best practices such as making sure they are relevant, simple, and clear; that they complement your verbal message rather than repeat it; that they are easy to see, read, and understand; that you use them sparingly and strategically; and that they are consistent with your format, style, and brand.

6 Practice and get feedback

The final step to ensure your presentation is well-organized is to practice and get feedback. Practicing will help you refine your content, delivery, and timing. Getting feedback will help you identify and improve any areas of weakness, confusion, or inconsistency. You can practice and get feedback by yourself, with a colleague, or with a small group of potential audience members. You can also use tools like video recording, audio recording, or presentation software to review and evaluate your performance.
