We face dramatic clash of approaches to presentations
Ineffective Presentations• Reverence & Respect• Focus on hierarchy• The more formal, the better• Communication is over as
soon as the presentation is over
• No or little practical value of presentations
• Questions start with long statements =self expression of the audience
Effective Presentations• Respect, friendliness and
being ‘aggressively’ inquisitive
• Free exchange of opinions • Presentations are aimed at
further contacts and practical outcomes
• Questions are questions: short, sharp and purposeful

• Questions and feedback from the audience while presenting
• Visuals : graphs, charts, tables etc• Summing up• Dealing with questions, encouraging further contacts
