Design experts recommend that presenters spend the majorityof their time thinking, sketching and scripting.

It is recommends that a presenter spend 90 hours creating an

hour long presentation with 30 slides.

But only one third of that time is spent building slides. Another

third is rehearsing, but the first third is spent collecting ideas,

organizing ideas, and sketching the story.

CHARGEDEVENT

DOPAMINE

According to Scientist, The brain doesnt pay attention

to boring things. When the brain detects an

emotionally charged event, the amygdala releases

dopamine into the system dopamine greatly aids

memory and information processing. Its like a mental

post-it note that tells your brain, remember this.

How do people remember

BIRD

10%65%

If information is presented orally, peopleremember about 10% of the content 72

hours later. That figure goes up to 65%

if you add a picture.

B

Your brain interprets every letteras a picture so wordy slides

literally choke your brain.

Refine & Rehearse

Master Stage Presence

- Eye contact

- Open posture

- Hand gestures

Practice

Wear the Appropriate Costume


12/15

Stage Presence & PracticeFor two full days before a presentation, Steve Jobs will

practice the entire presentation, asking for feedback from

product managers in the room. For 48 hours, all of his

energy is directed at making the presentation the perfect

embodiment of Apples messages.


13/15

Wear the Appropriate

Costume

Steve Jobs is the anti-Cher. Where Cher will change costumes 140

times in one show, Jobs has one costume that he wears for every

presentation a black mock, blue jeans and running shoes.

Now, why can he get away with it? Because hes Steve Jobs.

Seriously, when you invent revolutionary computers, music players

and Smart Phones, your audience will give you permission to dress

anyway you want.


14/15

One Thing!

HAVE FUN!Most presenters lose sight of the fact that

audiences want to be informed and

entertained.

Always a presentation is infotainment

he/she teaches his audience something

new, reveals new information and has fundoing it.

That makes your show one thing

Thank YouWas this One Thing
