I’m Johanna Rothman, and this is Johanna’s 60 Seconds of Writing WIP for August 2, 2024, where I read an excerpt of just a minute of some writing in progress.
This is from the Effective Public Speaking book.
Aside from designing the content and the visuals, there's one more preparation step for an effective presentation. That's practicing your presentation and creating a checklist so you are ready when it's time to speak.
This first part is about practicing at your computer, as you would speak in front of an audience.
Practice the Presentation Content
Not all presentations require practice. For example, if you have a specific status report template and you can't deviate from that, you might not need practice. Podcast discussions often don't require practice. I do have recommendations for these "special" kinds of presentations in a future chapter.
However, if you plan to deliver a new presentation to showcase your expertise, consider practicing your presentation in advance.
When I say, "practice," I mean:
1. Speak out loud, using the visuals.
2. Include all the stories you plan to include.
3. Practice moving from visual to visual. This is essential if you choose to use animation or move back and forth in the presentation.
4. Clarify how you will end your presentation.
Consider recording your practice--both video and audio--so you can learn from what you said and how you said it.
