1 Prioritize Points

To ensure your message is impactful, prioritize the most critical points of your presentation. Imagine your entire speech as a pyramid, and at the very top are the key takeaways that your audience absolutely must remember. Focus on these points and strip away any content that does not directly support them. This concentrated approach not only makes your delivery more powerful but also helps you remain calm and collected, knowing that every word you speak carries significant weight.

You may have to cut out the non-essentials! Most presentations do have a bit of trivia, fluff or add ons. Maybe you have designed your presentation like a large tree. You are going to describe the trunk, the bark, it’s many branches, leaves etc but now rather than an oak tree, it has to be a pine tree, or in some situations it may even be a bamboo! Lots of trunk but not much in the way of branches and leaves! The man in thing is the ‘trunk’ of the presentation is delivered. Don’t comprise the main points. Try and always plan for 2 conclusions, a short and long one. Then you won’t be thrown if you’re told that your presentation has lost a portion of time!

Here are some suggestions for modifying your motivational delivery for a lasting impression at a conference when time is limited: Concentrate on the important points: Decide which messages are most crucial to get across, then order them. Employ captivating narratives: To effectively convey your point, provide anecdotes or powerful stories that have an emotional impact on the audience. Interactive components: To keep the audience interested and add to the session's memory, including interactive exercises or Q&A sessions. Strong conclusion: Finish with a powerful and unforgettable statement that encapsulates the key lesson and leaves the listener with a lasting impression.

2 Engage Quickly

The opening moments of your speech are crucial for capturing the audience's attention. When pressed for time, you must engage your listeners immediately. Start with a compelling story, a provocative question, or a bold statement that relates directly to your central message. This approach creates a hook that draws your audience in, making them eager to hear what you have to say next. Remember, the strength of your opening often sets the tone for the entire delivery.

3 Simplify Language

Clarity is key when time is short. Use simple, direct language that can be easily understood by everyone in the room. Avoid jargon, complex terminology, or long-winded explanations. Instead, opt for powerful, concise statements that convey your points with precision. This simplification ensures that your message is not only heard but also remembered, as straightforward language tends to stick in people's minds more effectively.

4 Visual Aids

Visual aids can be incredibly effective when you're short on time. They can convey complex information quickly and in an engaging manner. Ensure that your slides or props highlight the key points and are easy to understand at a glance. Use high-contrast colors and large fonts to make sure that even those at the back of the room can see clearly. Remember, visual aids should support your message, not replace your verbal communication.

Visual aids can be a real game-changer when you're in a time crunch. Think about how quickly you grasp info from a well-designed infographic or a simple chart. These tools can take complex ideas and make them digestible in seconds. When creating visuals, focus on the big picture - what's the main takeaway? Use bold colors and large text to make sure everyone can see, even if they're squinting from the back row. But don't let your visuals do all the talking - they're there to back you up, not steal the show. Whether it's a family budget or a work presentation, good visuals can help get your point across fast and effectively.

5 Emotional Connection

Creating an emotional connection with your audience can leave a lasting impression. Share personal anecdotes or relatable experiences that align with your message. This personal touch can make complex concepts more tangible and memorable. By showing vulnerability or passion, you foster a sense of trust and empathy with your audience, which can be incredibly persuasive and motivating.

6 Call to Action

Finish strong with a clear call to action. Tell your audience exactly what you want them to do with the inspiration you've given them. Whether it's a change in mindset, an actionable step, or a commitment to a cause, make it specific and achievable. A powerful call to action resonates long after the seminar ends, giving your speech a sense of purpose and direction that can inspire immediate action.

Don't guess - ask your audience! Often times, the shortage of time has nothing to do with you - the conference may be running behind, there was a fire alarm... whatever! You still have time to ensure your timing is within limits. In cases where everyone knows the reason for short time, I've said, "I wanted to share 5 key strategies but we've only got time for 3. Of these 5 (listed or written on a white board), which are most pressing for you?" I always get an answer, and for those who wanted to hear about the other two, they either stay after or I connect with them via Zoom later on. Either way, you give your audience what they want.

A professional speaker is prepared for this. More than once in my career I've had the meeting planner or show runner tell me, "we're behind....you only have 45 minutes now instead of an hour." A professional speaker knows their talk, content, and audience. If they need to adjust on the fly they know what points and examples need to be included, and what can be dropped out. This only comes with knowing your content and audience. It also comes with practice and contingency planning thinking about what can go wrong.
