Presentation Advice
Presenter

• Who am I? Why should I listen to you? – credentialise yourself

• Rehearse / Practice / Polished

• Know your material / know what comes next (slide notes to make your point)

• Assume the AV will break – be able to present without any props or visual aids

• Don’t “READ” your text or bullets - talk about a subject relevant to the slide.

• “Sell” the proposition you’re making – answer the question “why am I looking at this
  slide / what is the point you’re making

• Timing & Pace – don’t go too slow or too fast (especially if short of time). Cut material
  rather than talk faster.

• Keep the energy levels up & keep it exciting.
                                                                                              1

  point. Use animations to build a picture
