Presentation Studio | 10 tips for freshening your delivery

Editor's Notes

  • #2 10 Tips for Freshening Your Delivery
  • #3 Meet people as they come into the room, shake hands and break the ice.
  • #4 Show enthusiasm for the subject. Your energy will transfer to the audience.
  • #5 Stay out of the way of your visuals and use the space you have to move around.
  • #6 Build a sense of connection with your audience by using names.
  • #7 Keep your body “open” to the audience. An occasional glance at the screen should be all you need.
  • #8 80% of your speech should be delivered straight to the audience so get into the habit of looking at them.
  • #9 Don’t ever read your slides word for word. Your slides should be a simple collection of key words.
  • #10 Use slide ‘builds’ like they do on TV news, for emphasis and impact.
  • #11 Personalise your presentation by sharing life experiences and stories.
  • #12 Real confidence in a presenter is about talking in good faith to your audience, be yourself and the message will translate.
