- 5. The Beginning The beginningof a presentation is the most important part. It is when you establish a rapport with the audience and when you have its attention. Get the audience's attention and signal the beginning. • Let's begin. • Shall we start? • Let's get the ball rolling. • Let's get down to business.

All your information should support your purpose. In most cases you will have to limit the content, as time is usually precious! • Quantity How much information should you give?

Think of ways you can keep the audience's attention throughout the rest of the speech.

Remember to draw the attention of the audience to the points that you wish to highlight but avoid redundancy by describing everything that is in the visual! • As you can see.... • The first line of figures is the most revealing... • Notice/observe how the increase has had an effect on the... • What is important here is the way that... You can also try to rephrase your point to give it emphasis, giving the audience time to absorb the information. • In other words the number of employees has a direct effect on the... • Or to look at it in another way every time you... • That is to say no matter what technique is used, the results remain
