This is my latest deck from my Presentation Elevation class I teach for ThinkLA. Like most decks, it may not mean much without me presenting, but there are some good nuggets, tools and tips. Lots of good pointers on how to build Powerpoint Presentation Decks, How to use your body, hands and voice. I talk about Bill Clinton, Steve Jobs and as always there's a slide with Eddie Van Halen.
Transcript of Presentation Elevation - How To Become A Better Presenter (updated)
PRESENTATION ELEVATION
Michael Weiss @mikepweiss
Who is this guy? AND WHAT IS
HE DOING HERE?
Still Chasing THE ROCK AND ROLL
DREAM
Now you know MICHAEL
WEISS
That is called THE LESSIG
METHOD
YOU THEM HOW 3
YOU
You are not the HERO.
You are Yoda.
The audience is LUKE
SKYWALKER
We are in the business of PERSUASION
Aristotle said that one of the most important parts
of a speech is to PRODUCE
PERSUASION
Communication is the
TRANSFER OF EMOTION
Seth Godin
What is your STYLE?
It is critical that you IDENTIFY &
ACCEPT your style
If you are not NERVOUS you are not HUMAN
Be COMFORTABLE
Be NATURAL
“You’re never really COMFORTABLE.
Even though you may think you are…you
really aren’t.”
Are you CASUAL?
Are you
FORMAL?
What about your
CADENCE?
Are you a
FAST talker?
The power of the PAUSE
Or do you
TAKE YOUR TIME?
How do you use your HANDS?
Are you aware of your
FACE?
How do you use your
BODY?
At the 1988 DNC Clinton was
BOO’ED off the stage
Clinton uses his HANDS
better than anyone
Cadence
Repetition REPETITION
Repetition
It was hard not to feel his PASSION
Jim Morrison was a master of
CROWD CONTROL
It comes down to
CHARISMA
!
A personal quality making a person capable of INFLUENCING or INSPIRING large
numbers of people.
Is it
INNATE or can it be
LEARNED?
CLTs* (Charismatic Leadership
Tactics)
* John Antonakis, Marika Fenley, and Sue Liechti
Metaphor
Story
Want to learn how to tell a better story?
WATCH COMEDIANS
Confidence
If you don’t believe it
NEITHER WILL THEY
“If I'm King, where's my power? Can I form a
government? Can I levy a tax, declare a war? No! And yet I am the seat of
all authority. Why? Because the nation believes that when I
speak, I speak for them. But I can't speak.”
Being AUTHENTIC
We fear that we are not worthy.
And that DISCONNECTS
US - Brene Brown
We have to be willing to be VULNERABLE*
*Do something where there are no guarantees
We need to stop
CONTROLLING &
PREDICTING
EMOTIONS are
CONTAGIOUS
THEM
The human brain not only looks for the
UNEXPECTED but actually craves it
Gregory Berns
Create
TENSION
NESTED LOOPS
Open with the
CONCLUSION
? It creates
MYSTERY
It unravels a
PUZZLE
