More Effective Presentation Content

01
  • Relevant. Your content should be relevant to your audience.
  • Informative. And it should support the main presentation purpose.
  • Illustrative. So it should use graphic illustration where possible.
  • Factual. But it must convey facts required to back up the information provided.
  • Observation and Anecdotes. Also, where possible aim to use stories and anecdotes.

Presenters Voice Delivery

02
  • Tone. Change your voice tone for specific effects.
  • Modulate. Try to alter the speed at which you present.
  • Pause. Because when you pause properly it’s a superb result.
  • Volume. So your audience shouldn’t struggle to hear you.
  • Language. Just make sure that your language is consistent with your audience. So, avoid the presentation jargon problem.

The Effective Presenter

03
  • Animated. Aspire to be animated, but don’t be a caricature of yourself!
  • Body language. Because every movement you make could be subject to some interpretation. Be aware!
  • Attire. Aim to get the dress code right. So then you look your best.
  • Listening. Listen for audience reaction to the points you make. Then take action.
  • Seeing. Gauge the impact of your presentation on the audience. So then take action.

Therefore, aim to focus on all three main attributes: That’s your content, your voice delivery and you, the presenter. Because when you achieve this, then you have a good chance of achieving a more effective presentation.
