particularly true with something like the five-minute job presentation. You can add in parts from the script or take them out to fit the time. Allow extra time in your presentation for questions and watch out for nerves – this could mean that you talk faster on the day. In the actual presentation, you could take in a clock or take off your wristwatch and put it on the podium. This way you can see how the timing can develop. A very simple trick that can help you with your performance is to video or record yourself. This will give you some immediate feedback and will enable you to fine-tune your performance. The audience are likely to remember only three things from your presentation. The rule of three is one of the oldest in the book – Aristotle wrote about it in his book Rhetoric. Put simply it is that people tend to remember three things easily. Therefore, before you start writing your presentation, plan what your three key messages will be. Once you have these messages, structure the main part of your speech around these three main themes and look at how they could be better illustrated. There are three parts of your presentation: the 37 beginning, the middle and the end. Start to plan what you will do in these parts. The beginning is ideal for an attention grabber or for an icebreaker. The end is great to wrap things up or to end with a grand finale. Lists of three have been used from early times up to the present day. They are particularly used by politicians and advertisers who know the value of using this rule to sell their ideas. There are many examples: “Veni, Vidi, Vici” (I came, I saw, I conquered) – Julius Caesar. “Friends, Romans, Countrymen lend me your ears” – William Shakespeare. “Our priorities are Education, Education, Education” – Tony Blair. If you have four points to get across – cut one out. The audience will not remember it anyway. In presentations, less really is more. No one ever complained of a presentation being too short. жүктеу/скачать 0.87 Mb. Достарыңызбен бөлісу:
