Tips For Good Presentation
Tips For Good Presentation
At the end of the presentation: Brief the audience what you have told.
BODY LANGUAGE Your body movement need to express your thoughts and attitudes.
COMMUNICATION
Remember that oral communication cannot be taught , therefore practice is essential. Rehearse your presentation to yourself and then in front of some of your colleagues.
Do not make the entire presentation when lights are switched off. Bring emotions to explain reasons because people mind respond to emotional reasons and not always to logical ones. Our minds remember pictures easily than words- we remember faces more often but forget names. Therefore, incorporate pictures more than words to convey the message.
contd.
For your presentation if the target group is adults, you have to be doubly careful as adults harbour vast reservoirs of experience. Use their experience and knowledge of your advantage by linking unknown with the known. While answering the questions adopt honesty as the only best policy. For the reason that, no one can know the answer to every question.
IF THE QUESTION FROM AUDIENCE IS UNANSWERABLE, FOLLOW ANY OF THE APPROACHES GIVEN BELOW. a. Repeat the question and toss it back to the entire audience and from their answers summarize at the end. b. Tell the audience, you will get back later say after tea break, lunch break etc. and do it promptly and honestly. c. If the question is legitimately outside the area of your expertise say so and tell them you are referring to an expert and will get back with the answer later. d. Finally do not forget to compliment the questioner.
OTHER IMPORTANT POINTS Speak clearly and be natural. Modulate your voice to suit the situation.
Use your hands judiciously.(avoid overuse of hands) Dont avoid eyes of the audience, meet them occasionally to get the feed back.
