Presenting vs. Teaching
Similarities Differences•Both involve knowing your topic – content-focus
•Teaching is more content-focused; Presenting is both content and process-oriented

•Both involve communication skills and listening skills
•As a teacher, you are the expert but as a presenter//facilitator, you tap into the expertise of the audience
•In teaching- it is more lecture-focused- In presenting- it is more audience-focused

Communication Barriers
• Barriers for you as the Presenter:– Your own nervousness– Not understanding the needs of your audience– Message is unclear– Lack of preparation – Not a logical flow of the message
![Page 37: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

![Page 39: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Why Ease?
Good speakers make it “look easy”
When we are comfortable, our audiences are comfortable
When we are relaxed, we can actually “have fun” giving presentations!
![Page 40: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Why Confident?
• We lose credibility as speakers when we are not confident
• Confidence breeds credibility breeds an attentive audience that breeds in us, more confidence!
• If you don’t feel confident, act confident. Feelings will follow.

Quote for Thought
“The best way to conquer stage fright is to know what you are talking about.”
- Michael Mescon
![Page 48: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Prepare and Organize your Talk
“What may seem totally logical and organized to you can appear a jumbled mess in the ear of the listener.”
- Jeff Dewar
![Page 49: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Prepare and Organize Your Talk
• What is your objective?
• Three Point Outline (Tell them what you are going to tell them, tell them, and tell them what you said)
• Note: The majority of audiences retain the first and last 15 minutes of every talk
![Page 50: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Organizing Tips
Don’t be misled when you see seemingly spontaneous off the cuff remarks made by veteran speakers. Know that they did their homework and they were prepared!
Be clear on your topic and what your objective is Think through the whole subject and formulate your ideas and
conclusions Gather the information you will need to support your ideas and
conclusions Develop your outline
![Page 51: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Preparation Basics• Time limit• Who is the audience?• What does the audience already know? What do they want to
know?• Goal of your presentation• What can I realistically cover within the time limit• What is the material I MUST include?• What material can I cut or shorten?
“A well-designed speech is like a fishing pole, each section can stand on its own”
![Page 52: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Your Initial Research
• WHY? (Why is this talk important and why am I doing it?)
• WHO? (The right speech to the “wrong” audience” is the wrong speech)
– Level of people in audience
– Technical people in audience?
– Decision makers present?
• WHERE? (size of the room, lighting, table and chair set up)
• WHAT? (What am I trying to achieve in this talk?)– From Ed Scannell, Center for Professional Development and Training and Larry Lottier,
Dana Corporation

Developing Your Outline
Always start with your objective. What is the purpose of your talk?
To persuade To give information To sell To inspire Get the audience to act
![Page 54: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Delivery Skills
Try to use what the experts call the “Three V’s of Presentation”
– Visual aspects – what they SEE– Verbal aspects – what they HEAR you say– Vocal aspects – HOW they hear you say it
From “How to be the Best Speaker in Town”,
by Doug Malouf
![Page 55: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
The Three V’s
• Non-Verbal (facial expressions, gestures) account for 55% of our communication
• Intonation, Stress, and speed (how it is said) account for 38% of our communication
• Words account for 7% of our communication• Each of these parts should work together but
if there is a contradiction (between our words and visuals), the visual factors will overwhelm the rest
![Page 56: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)

Using Visual Aids
People remember 10% of what they hear and 25% of what they see and 65% of what they hear and see together!
![Page 58: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Using Visual Aids

• White Board – don’t use any pens except white board pens!
![Page 59: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

-Sony Harris, President of Window Man, Durham, North Carolina

“A good speech is a one on one conversation with each audience member.”
-Ralph Archbold
![Page 64: Developed and Facilitated by: Jan Dwyer Bang, MBA, CSP](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812e4f550346895d93eca1/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Acknowledge Their Viewpoint

Acknowledge Their Viewpoint
What to when you are interacting with a hostile audience or when the audience has a different viewpoint than yours:– Use “I” statements rather than “you” statements– Use factual descriptions instead of judgments– Seek first to understand, then to be understood– You are always on stage!

• Anticipate questions as you plan your talk (So you can eliminate the need for questions by answering them in your talk! Also helps you be prepared for answering the questions during the Q&A session)
• Take control (Don’t let the audience take you on a tangent)
• Be honest if you don’t know the answer• Handle objections

Q&A Session – Can Make or break You!
– Encourage the audience to ask the questions– Listen carefully and rephrase the questions before
answering– Look at the questioner while rephrasing the question but look
at the audience while answering– Call on experts in the audience but take control after they
have responded– Set a time limit to control hostile questioners– Answer briefly but succinctly– End the Q&A period with a closing remark\
