Editor's Notes
- A GUIDE TO THE SPEAKER Stan’s Never-Fail, Can’t-Miss, Infallible Hints My preferred presentation style is to have no notes, other than the visual aids themselves (more below). Why visuals? Because an audience that both hears and sees your points you’re making retain much more than if they merely hear it. It’s also my style to use more, shorter charts rather than fewer, busier charts. The primary reason for doing this is that each time you change to a different chart, the audience refocuses and pays attention. However, since this presentation is full of quotes, several of the charts are busier than I really like. But I think the quotes provide authority. The audience doesn’t have to take your word for it, because the presentation is full of the General’s own words, not your version of them. Another secret to effective chart design is not to phrase the bullets in complete sentences. Speakers shouldn’t read their charts, except for quotes. The bullets should be more like headlines than a narrative. This presentation, however, has many quotes, which have to be read. Be sure to use a pointer to point out the specific bullet or quote you’re addressing. As an old fuddy-duddy, I still prefer the old-fashioned telescoping pointer. I’ve actually never used a laser pointer. In the ones I saw where the laser was used, the speaker had a tendency to point the arrow all over the room. The only time you can’t use an old-fashioned pointer is in a large room with a large screen, and you can’t reach the upper-most portions of the chart being shown. If you can, stand behind a podium, with the viewgraph right beside you. If you’re kind of a nervous Nellie, staying behind the podium isolates you from the audience slightly, which may reduce stage fright. But, if you get a question, leave the podium and take a few purposeful strides to the questioner to establish eye contact and rapport. Keep your hands still. If you tend to fidget, it sometimes works for men to put a hand in your pocket, unless you tend to fiddle. Keeping the pointer in your hand will help you occupy your hands.
