Reconcile the
two lists
Create a presentation that
meets the wants and goals
of your audience.
And yours at the same
time.
If no goal or want match, give priority
to your audience over your goals.
Create benefits in the
areas that are at stake for
you and your audience.
OUTCOME
Be clear about the reasons behind
your own presentation.
What is your desired outcome?
Now to the hard
stuff

Lay out your material and look at it
with the eyes of your audience.
Read out your notes and listen to
them with the ears of your audience
How will your audience feel
about your language?
How will your audience feel
about your visuals?
How will your audience feel about
the overall style of the presentation?
BOOM
Now, if you have been honest there
should not be even one part of your
presentation left standing.
This process changes everything.
To summarise
1. change your perspective
2. investigate your audience or create personas
3. understand wants, goals, stakes & reasons
4. reconcile them with yours
5. look at your material with their eyes
