There are 2 Methods of Selecting an Appropriate Presentation Topic.

2.Making your.ppt effective :

Slide Structure - Bad

Random stuff..bla bla bla blah….you know what..I am gonna over do this…Bla bla blablah…blah…It feels good to mess with you all..lol..xD :D lol

IgNoRe whAtever’s wRitten Up tHere..^^

Yay !! More random words…

I Really like this font.. Hellz Yeah..

SHOW them, don't Tell them..

Don’t be afraid of using the Visuals…

Use a GREAT DEAL of Pictures.

USE LEGIT IMAGES..

Picture Representation should be able to defend your point.

Always Try use Pictures of High Resolution.

Limit usage of humorous Pictures to 1 or 2.

Key Points in a Presentation:

How to handle your :

Introduction.Presentation Matter.Conclusion.Q&A.

First Impression is always the last impression :

“Introduction is the most important part of your presentation, even more than the real matter”

Grabbing the attention in starting 15 seconds of your presentation is MUST for an effective presentation.

Start off with…

Who are you? (Name + Qualifications)

What is your topic?

Why is it important?

How it can help the Audience ?

To get attention,you can…

Tell’em a Story.

Tell’em a Personal Experience.

Crack a Joke…

Tell’em an interesting, relevant quote

Presentation Matter :

One thing…Be Precise…Don’t give them huge chunks of insubstantial knowledge.

Concluding your Presentation:

Ending should always connect your Beginning and the content.

Conclusion is a short summary of your presentation.

A Good Ending is just as important as a Good Introduction.

Conclusion Layout :

“And That Is..” (Your Subject)

“What I talked about was..” (Summarize key points)

“Now that you have the required knowledge you can..” (Call to Action)

“Thank-you.”

Handling Q&As :

Embrace the questions..never run away from them.

You Should be like “BRING IT ON”

Not like “Jeez…I am outta here”

Q&A :

On Being asked a question you must :

1.Listen to it carefully.

2.Maintain Eye Contact and Nod to the Guy who asked it.

3.If Question is legit..then repeat it and share it with the rest of the Audience.

Q&A :

4.Compliment the asker :

“That’s a good question” and

“I really appreciate your concern about this point”

5. Now Finally Answer the Question.

Q&A :

In case you don’t know the answer:

Compliment the asker and tell him/her that you will get back to it.

“That’s a really good question you asked me…I really appreciate your concern…I’ll get back to you soon”

Q&A DON’Ts :

Never Insult the Questioner or the Question.

Never Say :

“You can Google that..Right?”

Never Argue.

Never Over do the “Compliment thing". Not every question is good.

Body Language During Presentation :

If You’re trying

TOO

hard…you’re

doing it wrong.

Reflect your words in your actions :

Not like :

Reflect your words in your actions :

Like This :

Maintaining Eye-Contact :

To Gain Someone’s trust you have to look him/her in the Eye.

Eye contact is the key to a Successful interactive Presentation.

Eye-Contact :

Look at every single individual present in a Room..for 3-5 seconds during your presentation.

It Helps in engaging them and generating the confidence within.

You need not to hurry..keep your calm and make eye contact.

All you have to do is:

Lock, talk and Pause

Pausing :

People only start listening to you when you stop talking.

Because Silence is the best Attention Grabber.

Duration of pause can be from 5 to 20 seconds.

Keep your mind clear :

Don’t think what you’re going to say “NEXT”

Always think when you’re going to “PAUSE”

If u do this..you’ll get a lot of time to think.

Stance-Pace :

FACE the Audience not your Power point presentation.

Power point isn’t for you…it is for your Audience.

Stance-Pace : Dos and Don’ts

Let your Hands do the talking

Ummms & Ahhs :

Just Replace “Ummms & Ahhs” with a “PAUSE”.

Never make use of words like:

“Sort of”

“kind of”“yeah maybe..probably”
