Presentation Skills For MANAGERS

HI,

I hope you all will like it.

# What are the characteristics of an effective, dynamic presenter?

5 Truths about presentation:

1. There is no one “right” way to create/deliver a presentation.

2. You know more than your audience.

3. There are “need to knows,” and there are “nice to knows.” Focus on the “need to knows.”

4. Making a presentation is an art, not a science.

5. The best presentations are those you are passionate about.

5 characteristics of an effective presentation:

# RElavant target contents

# Dynamic delivery

# Coherent organisation

# Staying within the time limits

# Adapting to audience.

* Effective presentation starts with effective planning:

1. Know your purpose.

2. Know your audience and its needs.

3. Know your subject.

4. Craft your presentation.

5. Choose your audiovisuals.

6. Practice, practice…and then practice some more.

Four methods of delivery:

1. Impromptu

-- No notes, no preparation

2. Reading from a Manuscript

-- Presentation is written out word for word

3. Reciting from Memory

-- Memorizing whole speech

4. Extemporaneous: practicing enough that you need minimal notes, allowing you to sound and look natural, conversational

# Your Physical self:

- Attitude

- Be positive

- Be engaging

- Listen, be open to comments, questions

- Appearance

- Dress (appropriate for occasion/audience)

- Grooming

- Body Language

- Posture

- Movement

- Gestures

- Emphasize key points

- Demonstrate passion for topic

Identify Purpose:

What is the subject of your presentation?

What is the purpose of the presentation?

How many people will you be presenting to?

Is this a stand alone meeting, or is it part of a larger meeting?

What room/location are you presenting in?

What time of day are you presenting at? For how long?

What equipment will you need? What back-up can you use?

Rest in next one.

Cheers
