Was tun Sie, wenn es Ihren Präsentationen an Wirkung mangelt?

You can and should: ~Remind yourself (or find out) why you ended up having the opportunity to give the presentation. ~Work out who will be in the audience, and why they might want to listen to what you have to say. ~Work out what valuable message(s) you were asked to share. ~Be to the point during your presentation. ~For a while, think about what it is, specifically, that makes you feels afraid, and accept that feeling to an extent. ~Consider what might go wrong and to what extent you will be able to deal with this. ~Engage in mental training: practise your talk in your imagination - go through it, imagine the scene of the room where you will be delivering your talk. ~Try to feel good about yourself on the day ~Go for it. ~That’s it!

O feedback sempre será importante para revisarmos estratégias e avaliarmos erros e acertos de forma crítica e imparcial. Para tal, é fundamental que a pessoa esteja aberta a recebê-lo, uma vez que o objetivo maior é sempre o de promover melhorias e evolução. Nesse sentido, procure escutar pessoas que você realmente admira e respeita, além de especialistas que de fato entendam do que você precisa e possam contribuir de forma mais assertiva. Feedback, como foi dito, é fundamental. Mas não é QUALQUER feedback, certo?

If your presentations lack impact, here are some tips for improvement: - Prepare: Gather data, plan your topic, and outline. Prepare! - Practice: Identify gaps, improve delivery, and build confidence. - Ask your friends for feedback. - Make use of slides, charts, and images. Put your focus on impact! - Be engaging: Use eye contact, gestures, and polls to get your audience involved. - Stay Concise: Don't ramble. It's better to use simple language than jargon. - Make your presentation emotional with anecdotes. - Summarize key points and leave a lasting impression.

Present about things you care about, that you have an actual opinion about... Say what you think and feels and hold nothing back... Then they'll have impact!

Focus on storytelling. Craft your presentation around a compelling narrative that engages your audience emotionally and intellectually, making your message memorable and impactful.

Practice, Practice, Practice. I have taken many trainings on presentations and in the most powerful ones I was videoed and able to critic myself and have our instructor give me pointers. Although it was very nerve raking, I will say using this practice will help you greatly.

Know your audience. It's important to have an understanding of what type of delivery will resonate with them. Details such as time of day you are presenting, if you have control over this, can make a big difference. Vary your engagement techniques throughout the presentation. Include videos, polls, think-pair-shares, and individual reflection time. Also consider the different types of learners in the room. Can some content be better explained through a graphic or a video? Changing up your presentation to account for your audience will keep them more engaged.

Plan your goal and message and write them down. Put emphasis how you start your presentation to get the attention of the audience. Plan your presentation around three key points.

The impact with which you start and end your presentation is crucial. Starting with an interesting story or surprising fact are : ways to draw in your audience. Wrap up your presentation with a call to action and end with a compelling fact, quote, or impactful story that ties to the beginning of the presentation. Make a lasting impression! Finally, being authentic and speaking from the heart are important for impact. Be sure to practice in front of a mirror or video tape yourself.

Consider your content. Think about what and how you are presenting. Use storytelling to convey points more memorably. Use slides as reference points only and not as a script. When I watch presenters read slides word-for-word, it is such a missed opportunity to engage the audience. Make your presence a value-add so that there is a distinction between you presenting and the audience reading the material on their own.
