How to discover who is really in your audience

Select presentation material that matters to them

Make your material memorable

• If they remember any one presentation make sure it’s yours
• Not repetitive of the ones that came before you and will follow

Staging your presentation

• Awareness and exploitation of the many physical components of your presentation space, television studio, conferfence room, hotel meetings, convention hall
• So you’ll look & feel comfortable.
• Use the space, don’t let it abuse you
• And your presentation will be an audience-friendly and dynamic experience

• Skills training, practice and one on one coaching in creatively combining entertainment and education

Media selection, design and best current practices in multimedia applications

• More than 70% of what audiences remember is what you show them, not what you tell them
• Your audiences are growing younger with media experiences and expectations beyond powerpoint

Techniques for including personal content and style

• Without interrupting or distracting from your key business messages

• What is appropriate or relevant personal content

• Standards for content that crosses the boundary of too personal –particularly at international meetings and conferences

In the first 90 seconds

• Audiences should understand what’s in your presentation that will help them and satisfy the reason they’re sitting there.

• They always want to know “what’s in it for me?”

• How to show and tell them what business result your presentation will enable them to achieve -- credibly

What content to include and what to omit

• All spoken, written and graphic content can be separated into three types: how to choose which to use

• Quantitative: facts, data

• Qualitative: application of facts with business examples

•  Commentary-editorial-benefit type of content answering “what’s in it for me?”

Time management tips and techniques
