This document outlines Frank Lee's effective presentation course from December 2012. The course covers how to enhance charisma through content, verbal and body language skills, and behavioral techniques. It provides tips on using simple backgrounds, effective animation, voice variation, body language, conquering nervousness through preparation, handling questions, and considerations for audience participation and distractions. The overall message is that effective presentation requires practice of both verbal and nonverbal techniques with preparation and structure.
The Presentation
...say it, Most presentations are divided into 3 main parts (+ questions):
INTRODUCTION
BODY
CONCLUSION
Questions
As a general rule in communication, repetition is valuable. In presentations, there is a golden rule about repetition:
Say what you are going to say,
say it,
then say what you have just said.
In other words, use the three parts of your presentation to reinforce your message. In the introduction, you tell your audience what your message is going to be. In the body, you tell your audience your real message. In the conclusion, you summarize what your message was.
We will now consider each of these parts in more detail
