October's Topic: Simplify Your Presentation
Mike Costa will facilitate a discussion around simplifying your presentation. Simplifying and decluttering your presentation not only prevents PowerPoint poisoning, it also comes with a bonus—smooth and calm delivery. Improve your ability to share your story, explain your project or communicate your message. We may also touch (lightly) on the science behind popular practices. We’ll acknowledge reality and discuss methods for dealing with less than ideal conditions.
In this session we’ll share helpful hints and easy techniques to:
· Stay calm and confident
· Move content into a polite format (PowerPoint or another)
· Avoid myths that create road blocks
· Reinforce truths to stay on track
· Prepare for the unexpected
· Deal with the expected…or short notice prep (translated; need it yesterday)
