1 Know your purpose

Before you start designing your slides, writing your script, or rehearsing your delivery, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve with your presentation. What is the main message you want to convey? What is the desired outcome you want to elicit? How do you want your audience to feel, think, or do after listening to you? Having a clear purpose will help you focus your content, structure your argument, and tailor your tone.

2 Know your audience

The next step is to research your audience as much as possible. Who are they? What are their backgrounds, roles, goals, challenges, and preferences? What do they already know about your topic, and what do they need or want to learn? How can you relate your presentation to their interests, needs, or problems? Knowing your audience will help you choose the right language, examples, stories, and data to connect with them.

3 Know your context

You also need to consider the context of your presentation. Where and when will it take place? How much time do you have? What is the format and the setting? What are the expectations and the norms of the event or the organization? How will you interact with your audience, and how will they interact with you? Knowing your context will help you adapt your style, tone, and delivery to suit the situation.

4 Hook them early

You only have a few seconds to make a good first impression and grab your audience’s attention. That’s why you need to start your presentation with a strong hook that sparks their curiosity, emotion, or action. You can use a surprising fact, a provocative question, a relevant story, a striking image, or a compelling promise. Whatever you choose, make sure it relates to your purpose and your audience, and sets the tone for the rest of your presentation.

5 Show them why

One of the most effective ways to make your audience care about what you have to say is to show them why it matters to them. How does your presentation solve their problem, address their need, or benefit their situation? How does it align with their values, beliefs, or goals? How does it challenge their assumptions, expand their knowledge, or inspire their action? Use clear and concrete examples, evidence, and stories to demonstrate the value and relevance of your presentation.

6 Engage them throughout

Finally, you want to keep your audience interested and involved throughout your presentation. Don’t just talk at them, talk with them. Invite them to participate, ask questions, share opinions, or give feedback. Use humor, emotion, or surprise to keep them entertained and attentive. Use visuals, gestures, or voice to keep them focused and stimulated. And use repetition, summaries, or transitions to keep them on track and reinforce your main points.
