How to Give
a Terrible Presentation Claire Sewell Research Support Librarian (Physical Sciences) ces43@cam.ac.uk
2.
#1 Go off
topic Build your presentation around your key message(s)
3.
#2 Use every
font/colour/effect Consider basic design principles and remember that less is always more
4.
#3 Over rely
on text Avoid the wall of text and reconsider your approach to bullet points
5.
#4 Use incomprehensible
graphs Don’t confuse your audience with badly presented data
6.
7.
#5 Read out
your slides Slides are your backing group – you are the star of the show!
8.
#6 Be embarrassed
by nerves Embrace your nerves to enhance your performance
9.
#7 Look bored Bad
delivery can kill a otherwise great presentation
10.
#8 Mismanage interruptions Deal
with questions professionally and don’t be afraid to admit you don’t know the answer!
11.
#9 Not think about
the wider audience How will your presentation read to those not in the room?
12.
#10 Fail to
deal with disaster Remember - the audience won’t know there’s been a problem unless you let it show
13.
