Importance of Authenticity Business presentations can be ineffective

despite the…

Right message

Right content

Good preparation/rehearsal

Confidence & Energy

Engaging body gestures

Appropriate dress code

16

How do you rehearse

authenticity when…?

17

Non-Verbal Cues

Match your body language to your

spoken message. Gestures speak louder

than words.

Reinforcement, contradiction, and

complementary arise first in gesture. (e.g.,

nodding, shaking our heads, rolling our

eyes)

18

Engaging the Audience Virtually

Challenge: Absence of body language, eye contact, visible 2-way interaction & reactions.

Don’t: Read the script. It’s boring! Use your voice to deliver your passion for the message & content.

Do: Monitor your audience by requesting the audience feedback, involvement & engagement.
