TIPS FOR A KILLER
PRESENTATION @SaniLeino 25 by: Sciantifically proven tips inside

PRESENTATION
BEFORE

1,2,3 MIC & TECH CHECK.
ALWAYS CHECK: AUDIENCE, VENUE, TECH ”By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” - Abraham Lincoln

GHOST PRESENT NEVER LET THE
AUDIENCE BE YOUR PLACE OF PRACTISE ”I fear not the man who has practiced 10000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10000 times.” - Bruce Lee

UNDER ANXIETY & STRESS YOUR
BODY PRODUCES CORTISOL WHICH MAY LOWER YOUR FOCUS & ALERTNESS LEVEL BURN SOME CORTISOL. MAKE A SMALL EXERCISE BEFORE THE PRESENTATION

ENERGETIC PERFORMACE NEEDS ENERGY.
EAT A HIGH PROTEIN MEAL BEFORE PRESENTATION. PROTEIN ACTIVATES DOPAMINE WHICH KEEPS YOU ALERT. BIG GREASY MEAL PRIOR MAKES YOU SLEEPY.

DO THE ”HELSINKI SUBWAY PLAN” Freeze Station Route B Route A IF THE FIRST LANE IS STUCK, HOW DO YOU SWITCH TO ANOTHER LANE AND KEEP GOING?

CREATE YOUR OWN ”PRE-GAME ROUTINE”
During the 1998 World Cup French player Laurent Blanc kissed the bold head of the goalie Fabien Barthez before every match for good luck. NBA Player LeBron James, tosses chalk to the sky before every game. The pre-game ritual has become his trademark and ended up in Nike’s Ad.

DURING THE SHOW

EMBRACE ”INTERRUPTIONS” A QUESTION IS
NOT A BAD INTERRUPTION TO HAVE, IT OPENS THE DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE PRESENTER & THE AUDIENCE. ADDRESS QUESTIONS IMMEDIATELY IF POSSIBLE

ASK A QUESTION YOU DON’T
KNOW THE ANSWER TO. THEN TALK ABOUT THINGS YOU DO KNOW & SHOW YOUR TALENT THIS WAY YOU WILL SHOW YOUR HUMILITY & LOWER THE DIALOGUE GAP.

ALWAYS GIVE THE AUDIENCE
SOMETHING TO TAKE HOME PRESENT, MATERIAL, GREAT ADVICE, E-MATERIAL, SOMETHING EXCLUSIVE.

WHAT DO YOU DO TO
CONTINUE IF A POSSIBLE FREEZE OCCURS DURING YOUR PRESENTATION? HAVE A FREEZE KILL-PILL

ESTABLISH AN EXIT STRATEGY HOW
TO WALK AWAY LIKE A WINNER IF THE ”STAGE STARTS BURNING”?

BE PERSONAL ”Be yourself. Everyone
else is already taken.” - Oscar Wilde #11

DO THE DUNK. HAVE A
”WOW” -FACTOR IN YOUR PRESENTATION.
