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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.”

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”

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.

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.

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”

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.

Body Language During
Presentation :

If You’re trying
TOO
hard…you’re
doing it wrong.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

Stance-Pace : Dos and Don’ts

Ummms & Ahhs :
 Just Replace “Ummms & Ahhs” with a
“PAUSE”.
 Never make use of words like:
“Sort of”
“kind of”
“yeah maybe..probably”

Now it’s your
turn to
“NAIL IT”
