Your Introduction: Write your own!

3 likes•5,251 views
The Introduction is an Integral Part of the Presentation. The Introduction to your presentation is not your Bio! It sets the stage for the presenter. It is the responsibility of the speaker to write it. The emcee should read it as if they wrote it. The Introduction should be like the king’s trumpeters blowing their horns in anticipation of the king walking down the red carpet headed towards the throne. The audience should be pumped and ready to hear you! Your Introduction should answer three questions: Why this Subject? Why this Speaker? Why Now?

EVERYONE Needs a Great Elevator Speech!
Fred Miller provides a step-by-step guide to crafting an effective elevator speech. The elevator speech starts simply by introducing yourself on the 1st floor and then expands with more details on higher floors. It should clearly tell the audience who you are, what you do, and your expertise. The core of the elevator speech is the "why"- why people hire you. It should articulate your passion and ultimate selling proposition, and leave the other person wanting to know more. An effective elevator speech follows Simon Sinek's "Golden Circle" model of starting with the why before discussing the what or how.
The AFTER-Duction- write your own!
I’ll bet you’ve been to a presentation and experienced this:
The master of ceremonies takes the microphone immediately after a speaker finishes their talk and says, in an underwhelming manner, “Thanks for coming. Have a safe drive home!”
WOW! That’s a memorable take-away, isn’t it? NOT!
Ending a valuable presentation program like that is unfortunate. Regrettably, this anti-climatic way to draw to a close, a great message from a speaker, is often the norm. It’s done this way because no one, especially the master of ceremonies and others in charge of the event, thought about a better way to end it. I bring you Good News – There is!
The Fear of Public Speaking - WHY?
Survey after survey lists The Fear of Public Speaking at the top of the ‘Fear List’ most people have. Some say they would rather die than stand in front of an audience and deliver a speech. This is unfortunate because it holds many back from reaching their potential.
Up to seventy-five percent of the population, to one degree, or another, has this dread.
Questions about Questions - WHEN?
Q&A can be an important part of your presentation.
But, WHEN is best?
In your OPENING, tell the audience WHEN You'll Handle Questions.
Four Choices
Questions about Questions - HOW?
The document provides tips for handling questions during a presentation. It recommends telling the audience up front when the Q&A portion will occur. When answering questions, the speaker should make eye contact with the questioner, finish their thought, then move their eyes to another person to avoid private conversations. If the speaker does not know the answer, they should never lie but should throw the question to the audience or offer to follow up after the presentation. The speaker should also repeat questions for a large audience to ensure all hear it.
Fear of Public Speaking the Fear of . . .
The document discusses how failing, especially in public speaking, can be a great way to learn. It notes that if something is done correctly the first time, it may not be fully learned or improved upon. While some types of failing like puzzles or tutorials done alone are easy, public speaking failures are very public. However, facing fears and getting outside one's comfort zone is where learning begins. The document encourages overcoming the fear of public speaking through practice, even if it means failing, in order to improve skills over time.
Secrets of a Successful Business FB Page
The document provides tips for creating a successful Facebook business page. It outlines a formula of (Audience + Message + Content) Engagement = Profits. Key recommendations include choosing an engaging profile picture and cover photo, posting varied content like photos and short videos regularly, and asking questions to generate comments and interaction from followers. The goal is to build a sense of community and help followers see how the business can help them transform, using language that focuses on their goals and challenges. Regular posting of different types of engaging content is important to maintain audience attention and follow-through to sales.
Presentation Slides: Tex vs. Images
The document discusses the importance of using images over text in presentations. It argues that images are more effective for communication because they allow the audience to visualize concepts, rather than just reading words. When an image is shown, like a picture of an apple or kiwi fruit, the audience will mentally see the object rather than its name in text on a slide. While this presentation uses text to make its point about images, it acknowledges the irony of doing so through slides. Ultimately, it stresses that people think in terms of images, so presentations should also incorporate visuals whenever possible for audiences to best understand the message.

Training: Making Small Talk
In most English-speaking countries, it is normal and necessary to make “small talk” in certain situations. Small talk is a casual form of conversation that “breaks the ice” or fills an awkward silence between people. The ability to make ‘small talk’ is highly valued. In fact, many English students agree that making effective small talk is much more important than knowing correct grammar structures – and rightly so! Small talk gets friendship started and ‘breaks the ice’ before important business meetings and other events.

More Bonus Tips to Neutralize the Fear of Public Speaking
The document contains tips and templates for creating effective presentations, including outlines for speeches with main points and subpoints, mind maps for organizing content with central topics and related subtopics, and examples of slides with clear headings, bullet points of text, and photo credits.
You can quote me on these!
The document provides tips and advice for public speaking. It discusses the importance of helping the audience "GET IT" or understand the key messages. This means educating them with new information, entertaining them to hold their attention, and clearly explaining the message. Stories can be used to connect emotionally. All elements of a presentation like words, slides, and appearance must reinforce the same message. Bullet points can confuse while images can help explain the message. The rule of three, primacy and recency effects, avoiding saying you're nervous, smiling, and using name tags are also addressed.
Non verbal communication
The document discusses five key non-verbal elements of an effective speech: 1) maintaining eye contact with the audience, 2) displaying engaging facial expressions like smiling, 3) using gestures to emphasize points, 4) having confident posture when speaking and waiting to speak, and 5) incorporating body movement to keep the audience engaged without words. These non-verbal elements are important for conveying trust, honesty, and a range of emotions to the audience.

Master Mind Mapper!
The document outlines a project structure using Roman numerals and letters to represent different sections and subsections. It then discusses how mind mapping could be a good fit for organizing projects. It provides contact information for Fred Miller to discuss mind mapping and scheduling a conversation.
How To Mind Map
The document provides instructions for creating a mind map, starting with the main subject in the center and radiating out topics and sub-topics of varying importance. It recommends using keywords, pictures, words and symbols to show associations and themes without making judgements. The mind map should be created quickly, jumping from branch to branch and filling in empty boxes later, before going back to edit, prioritize, elaborate and clean up the final product.
Mind Mapping - It's History
This document discusses mind mapping and its history. It introduces mind mapping as a creative and nonlinear alternative to logical linear thinking. Mind mapping was pioneered by Tony Buzan in the 1970s as a note-taking technique to organize ideas, concepts, and information in a radial, diagrammatic manner with branches and relationships.

7 Habits of Highly Effective People.pptx
Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
