How To Prepare For A Presentation

When you get invited to stand up infront of a crowd, popular knowledge says to start preparing your deck so you can memorize and practice for your big day.

Because a deck makes you a slave to your screen, how do you prepare for a presentation that clicks?

Practice telling the story first.

1. What is the main point you want your audience to walk away with at the end of your speech?
2. Why are the 5 points you want to touch on driving this point home?
3. Who in the audience has had this experience so you can build your examples around their real world stories?
4. When in the presentation will you surprise your audience with an outrageous statement or other unexpected turn?
5. How will you end your talk with a call to action that links directly back to the main point you want to make?
