Following are the top 10 tips our clients told us they received from prior training or schooling.
***WARNING*** Using these tips will assure you of a lousy presentation!
- Look just above the heads of the audience - do NOT look them in the eye.
- Memorize your presentation.
- Do NOT talk with your hands, it will be too distracting.
- Tell a good joke to warm up the audience.
- Stand still to appear confident - avoid moving.
- After you receive a question, say "Good Question" before you answer.
- Make sure you smile often in all your presentations.
- Saying "um" or "uh" will make you sound thoughtful.
- Do NOT have notes near you when you present - you will look unprepared.
- Using a lazer pointer is a great way to lead your audience through a slide.
