Presentations are complex processes that involve good public speaking skills and control of your nerves. In Steve McNeils's one-day class, Strategies for Effective Presentations, you will cover important methods and strategies not only to speak to different types of audiences but most importantly the audience at your workplace.
Your Audience Matters
Presenting calls upon the skills of effectively communicating specific points. Finding the appropriate words and visuals should be considered when designing presentations.
“Designing a presentation without an audience in mind is like writing a love letter and addressing it: To Whom It May Concern.“ - Ken Haemer
With all good things, the planning phase matters the most. Structuring your time and allowing yourself to get all the information you need will do you wonders.
Deliver in Style
The delivery of the information is commonly what we focus on, which can be the cause of presentation anxiety — asking, “What’s going to go wrong?” Which sets anxiety in motion bringing the worst of fears to life. To avoid this you could memorize everything, and have a proctor of words but what will work best for you?
The point is to retain your audience's attention while also hitting all the important points.
What happens if you lose your audience?
People tend to perk up when they hear the most relevant parts of a presentation that they hear. Keeping their attention is a struggle. Making sure your audience is consistently listening and engaged will make the whole process worth it.
Be more confident about communicating by seeing how Strategies for Effective Presentations can prepare you to be more aware of how to properly give your next presentation and focus on managing your own emotions.
