How to Convey Your Message • Visible– Use a reasonable size font and a typeface which will
enlarge well• Clear– Slides should contain the minimum information
necessary• Simple– Visually simplify using design, colour, or overlays
![Page 9: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Visuals• Keep visuals simple• Consider colour coordination• Use large enough type for audience to read at a
distance• Do not stand in front of the thing you want the
audience to see• Speak to the audience, not the visuals
![Page 11: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Delivery• Speak clearly- don't shout or whisper - judge
the acoustics of the room • Say what you are going to say• Say it - remember that "listeners" listen only 25
to 50% of the time • Say what you’ve said - repetition often suggests
importance• Deliberately pause at key points

Elements of Delivery
![Page 13: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Tone
Consider the statement “What are you doing”
• It can be said with a harsh tone and sound like a rebuke
• It can be said with a soft tone and sound like a caring query.
![Page 14: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Emphasis Consider the statement “What are you doing”Try using emphasis on the bold word:1. What are you doing?2. What are you doing?3. What are you doing?4. What are you doing?
![Page 15: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Emphasis
1. Focuses attention on the action2. Implies disbelief/suprise as to what is
being done3. Suggests the person is at fault4. Focuses attention on the action.Combining emphasis and tone makes
messages easily understood
![Page 16: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Content
Actual words are important.• Set them at the correct level for the listener• Avoid technical words, particularly if you
are not sure of their meaning• Try to ensure that your words cannot be
misunderstood, no ambiguity
![Page 17: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Humour
• Can be a useful way of maintaining the listener’s attention
BUT• Can also risk the loss of credibility• Not everyone has the same sense of
humour• May risk offending someone
![Page 18: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
SpeedCan be used to aid emphasis and structure• to create anticipation• build up momentum before an important point• a pause can also highlight and aid the listener in
absorbing a point• a pause can infer deliberateness and thought • ‘Um’ and other noises are not pauses
![Page 19: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Pronunciation and Pitch
• Read difficult words aloud before you have to speak in public
• Try to avoid using words you are not sure how to pronounce
Pitch is a combination of tone and loudness• it tends to change when people get irritated or
angry• A speech with no change of pitch sounds very
boring
![Page 20: Presentation Skills. Outline of lecture Planning Preparation Message Media Delivery Elements of delivery Key points.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649eba5503460f94bc2163/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

audience, what will they gain?• What are your objectives?– Get the audience to agree with your views?– Give information?– Explain something?

Before Delivery• Rehearse your presentation.– To yourself at first and then in front of some
colleagues.
