Presentation skills

This handbook helps the reader to prepare a well-targeted script with striking visuals, and to fine-tune their performance so that you can face an audience with confidence. It discusses: researching the audience to understand their needs; structuring the presentation to establish rapport, maintain interest and end with impact; assembling ideas into a logical, persuasive sequence and transcribing key points onto overheads and prompt cards; rehearsing delivery, projecting your voice and controlling nerves; and using question time to reinforce your message.
