Instructions

My body language is positive, I look confident and demonstrate ‘gravitas’ when I speak.

I spend time thinking about who the 'audience' is and what they want to gain from the presentation before writing the content.

When presenting virtually (e.g. Zoom) I plan how I will invite the audience to participate.

I visualise the key ideas and concepts to make them simpler and more memorable.

My voice is clear, varied and at the right volume for virtual and face to face presentations.

I make it clear to the audience how and when they can ask questions, especially when presenting virtually.

I feel confident when I present face to face or virtually, no matter what the audience size.

When presenting virtually or face to face I calmly and comfortably manage any audience questions or objections.

I spend time practising important presentations out loud.

I know how to engage the audience and hold their attention in face to face and virtual presentations, and I make every effort to do so.

I use stories, case studies and examples to bring my presentation to life.

I talk freely and naturally to the audience (I have an outline of what I will say but not a script).
