 Preparing for Your Presentation

Preparation is the most important part of making a
successful presentation explains what information
you need before you can really start to plan your
presentation and decide what you are going to say.
The most important aspects include the objective of
the presentation, the subject, and the audience.

and to make them feel personally addressed, it is
particularly important to maintain eye contact with the
audience during the presentation. Not only does this exude
confidence, but it also helps your audience to connect with
you and your subject. It also helps you feel less nervous.
 Be confident
By appearing self-confident, you convey to the
listener that you are confident in your topic and
have prepared yourself sufficiently. Try to relax and
not appear too stressed or nervous

you should start your presentation with a bang. You should also give
an overview of the time and structure of your presentation.

To make the presentation as lively and enjoyable as possible, you
should avoid reading it off. Speak freely, slowly, and clearly. If you are
not yet confident in what you are presenting, try using note cards.
But keep in mind: No continuous text, but only short, concise bullet
points

When creating your presentation, you should already think
about your target audience. This will help you present
successfully later on. It is especially important that you speak
the language of the audience. Use appropriate and relevant
examples. Use "strong" and meaningful words in short
sentences to avoid losing the audience.
 Planning Your Presentation

 Step 1: Analyze your audience

The first step in preparing a presentation is to learn more about
the audience to whom you'll be speaking. It's a good idea to
obtain some information on the backgrounds, values, and
interests of your audience
Step 2: Select a topic
if possible select a topic that is of interest to the audience and to
you. It will be much easier to deliver a presentation that the
audience finds relevant, and more enjoyable to research a topic
that is of interest to you.
Step 3: Define the objective of the presentation
Once you have selected a topic, write the objective of the
presentation The objective needs to specify exactly what you
want your audience to learn from your presentation. Base the
objective and the level of the content on the amount of time you
have for the presentation and the background knowledge of the
audience.

Step 4: Prepare the body of the presentation

The body of the presentation is where you present your ideas. To
present your ideas convincingly, you will need to illustrate and
support them.
remember, as you plan the body of your presentation it's
important to provide variety. Listeners may quickly become
bored by lots of facts or they may tire of hearing story after story.
Step 5: Prepare the introduction and conclusion
Once you've prepared the body of the presentation, decide how
you will begin and end the talk. Make sure the introduction
captures the attention of your audience and the conclusion
summarizes and reiterates your important points. In other
words, "Tell them what you're going to tell them. Tell them.
Then, tell them what you told them.

Step 6: Practice delivering the presentation

Most people spend hours preparing a presentation but very little
time practicing it. When you practice your presentation, you can
reduce the number of times you utter words and phrases like,
"um," "well," and "you know." These habits can easily diminish a
speaker's credibility. You can also fine-tune your content to be
sure you make your most important points in the time alloted.
