  2. Today’s Talk • Eye contact • Practice • Power of the pause • Body language • Time management • Questions

  3. Look at Your Audience • Maintain eye contact. • Scan your audience. Question: How can I do this if I am not very, very familiar with my talk?

  4. Practice, Practice, Practice! Reading is NOT a good way of presenting! Talking about your presentation is NOT a good way of practicing it!

  5. How to Practice • Verbalization: You have to say it! • Spaced repetition: 1-3-7-14 or multiples of 5 • Timed performance: Time yourself. • Audio taping: Tape yourself.

  6. The Power of the Pause Why are pauses important? • Eliminate pause fillers (e.g., “um”). • Practice 2-s pauses between sentences. • Vary your speech rate.

  7. Body Language Are these good ideas? Why or why not? • Hands in pockets • Pointing at the audience • Looking at the slides • Facing the screen

  8. Gestures • Must be natural. • Must help make a point. • Must be practiced!

  9. Position • Standing • Hands … where? • One position or moving? • Change of position to signal new point, change of topic, etc.

  10. Manage Your Time! • Have a clock in view • Practice X many times • Have a “shock absorber” built into your presentation

  11. Manage Your Time!

  12. Great Presentations All great presentations have 3 things in common: • They are practiced and rehearsed. • They keep the audience interested. • They are coached.

  13. Handling Questions • Prepare a summary. • Anticipate questions. • Invite questions. • Prepare a general answer. • Tip: Repeat the question!

  14. When You Don’t Have a Clue... • Could you rephrase your question? • Do you mean...? • Are you asking about...? What about this: Could you please repeat that?
