1 Check your equipment

Before you start your presentation, make sure you have tested your equipment and software. Check your internet speed, audio and video quality, battery level, and compatibility with the platform you are using. Have a backup plan in case something goes wrong, such as a spare device, a USB drive, or a phone number to call in. If possible, have a technical support person on standby to assist you if needed.

30 minutes before or even an hour before, always trouble shoot. If you can’t seem to get your equipment to work, prepare an alternative solution.

2 Communicate with your audience

If you encounter a technical issue during your presentation, don't panic or ignore it. Communicate with your audience and let them know what is happening and how long it will take to fix it. Apologize for the inconvenience and thank them for their patience. If the problem is minor, you can try to make a joke or use humor to lighten the mood. If the problem is major, you can ask them to take a short break or reschedule the presentation.

3 Use alternative methods

Sometimes, technical difficulties are beyond your control and you have to improvise. You can use alternative methods to deliver your presentation, such as sharing your screen, sending your slides via email, or using a whiteboard or a flip chart. You can also use your phone or tablet to show your visuals or demonstrate your product. Be creative and flexible and use whatever resources you have available.

In my experience, having a back up plan to your back up plan is always needed. You never know how that day is going to start or end with a presentation. Always prepare for the unknown.

4 Focus on your content

Technical difficulties can be frustrating and distracting, but they should not overshadow your content. Focus on delivering your message and engaging your audience with your voice, body language, and storytelling. Remember that your presentation is not just about the slides, but about the value you can provide to your clients. Show them that you are confident, knowledgeable, and passionate about your topic.

5 Learn from your experience

After your presentation, evaluate what went wrong and how you handled it. Identify the causes of the technical difficulties and how you can prevent or minimize them in the future. Ask for feedback from your audience and your colleagues and learn from their suggestions. Celebrate what you did well and acknowledge what you can improve. Use your experience as an opportunity to grow and improve your presentation skills.
