When your team is preparing to give a presentation, making it absolutely relevant, and engaging, is key to keeping the audience's attention and leaving a lasting impression. Here are some tips: ➡️ It’s important that they start with a strong opening, for example they might talk about a surprising fact or a relevant story. ➡️ Throughout their presentation, using bullet points and short phrases instead of long paragraphs helps to make slides concise and easy to read. This also encourages the audience to listen, rather than simply reading the slides. ➡️ Encourage them to incorporate participation by adding interactive elements like polls or quizzes.
