The

5 Elements

to a

Riveting

Presentation

#1 An Informed Presenter

Knows their audience well

Creates

their

presentation

with the

audience

in mind

They make changes depending on the

audience

It’s important to know how many people

you will have

You need

to know

how well

the audience

knows the topic

What’s

their

reason

for

attending?

Anticipate questions

#2 Audience Rapport

Open

with

a joke

or

light-hearted

story

Tell the audience you understand them

Build credibility

Establish something in common

Without rapport

the audience

won’t stay

with you

Put

the

audience’s

needs

first

#3 Top-Notch Storytelling

Use the story to draw the audience in,

introduce the topic and build rapport

Good

presentations

are based

around good

storytelling

Stories

are

intriguing and relatable

Illustrate or

provide

examples

of key

points

Don’t

overuse

stories

#4 Good Body Language

Your gestures

and movements

have a major

impact

Natural

gestures

at the right

times

make it

easier to

follow

Facial

expressions

should mirror

what you’re

saying

Voice and tone

are also

important

aspects

Practice, Practice and More Practice

No one is a great presenter first time

All of the great

speakers and

presenters spent a

great deal of time

practicing

Many people practice in front of mirrors

or recording devices

Always have a backup plan

in case things don't go smoothly
