 Limit usage of humorous Pictures to 1 or 2.

29. Key Points in a
Presentation:
How to handle your :
Introduction.
Presentation Matter.
Conclusion.
Q&A.

31. First Impression is always
the last impression :
 “Introduction is the most important part of
your presentation, even more than the real
matter”
 Grabbing the attention in starting 15 seconds
of your presentation is MUST for an effective
presentation.

32. Start off with…
 Who are you? (Name + Qualifications)
 What is your topic?
 Why is it important?
How it can help the Audience ?

33. To get attention,you can…
 Tell’em a Story.
 Tell’em a Personal Experience.
 Crack a Joke…
 Tell’em an interesting, relevant quote

35. Presentation Matter :
 One thing…Be Precise…Don’t give them
huge chunks of insubstantial knowledge.

36. Concluding your Presentation:
 Ending should always connect your
Beginning and the content.
 Conclusion is a short summary of your
presentation.
 A Good Ending is just as important as a Good
Introduction.

37. Conclusion Layout :
 “AndThat Is..” (Your Subject)
 “What I talked about was..” (Summarize key
points)
 “Now that you have the required knowledge
you can..” (Call to Action)
 “Thank-you.”

38. Handling Q&As :
 Embrace the questions..never run away from
them.
You Should be like “BRING IT ON”
Not like “Jeez…I am outta here”

39. Q&A :
 On Being asked a question you must :
1.Listen to it carefully.
2.Maintain Eye Contact and Nod to the Guy
who asked it.
3.If Question is legit..then repeat it and share
it with the rest of the Audience.

40. Q&A :
4.Compliment the asker :
“That’s a good question” and
“I really appreciate your concern about this
point”
5. Now Finally Answer the Question.

41. Q&A :
 In case you don’t know the answer:
Compliment the asker and tell him/her that
you will get back to it.
“That’s a really good question you asked
me…I really appreciate your concern…I’ll get
back to you soon”

42. Q&A DON’Ts :
 Never Insult the Questioner or the Question.
 Never Say :
“You can Google that..Right?”
 Never Argue.
 Never Over do the “Compliment thing". Not
every question is good.

43. Body Language During
Presentation :

TOO
hard…you’re
doing it wrong.

actions :

47. Maintaining Eye-Contact :
 To Gain Someone’s trust you have to look
him/her in the Eye.
 Eye contact is the key to a Successful
interactive Presentation.

48. Eye-Contact :
 Look at every single individual present in a
Room..for 3-5 seconds during your
presentation.
 It Helps in engaging them and generating the
confidence within.
 You need not to hurry..keep your calm and
make eye contact.

49. All you have to do is:
Lock, talk and Pause

51. Pausing :
 People only start listening to you when you
stop talking.
 Because Silence is the best Attention
Grabber.
 Duration of pause can be from 5 to 20
seconds.

52. Keep your mind clear :
 Don’t think what you’re going to say “NEXT”
 Always think when you’re going to “PAUSE”
If u do this..you’ll get a lot of time to think.

53. Tone/Inflection :
 I didn’t say he stole the money.
 I didn’t say he stole the money.

55. Stance-Pace :
 FACE the Audience not your Power point
presentation.
 Power point isn’t for you…it is for your
Audience.

56. Stance-Pace : Dos and Don’ts

57. Let your Hands do the
talking

58. Ummms & Ahhs :
 Just Replace “Ummms & Ahhs” with a
“PAUSE”.

“Sort of”
“kind of”
“yeah maybe..probably”
