Presentation nerves
• Lose the Fear: Get out there
and speak.
• There are legendary stories of
entertainment superstars who
undergo extraordinary episodes of
stage fright immediately before
they perform...
• They've experienced blurred
vision, nausea, and headaches -
even after performing hundreds of
times. So, if these entertainers face
anxiety on stage, is it any wonder
that the rest of us may be fearful of
appearing before groups?

Presentation nerves
• A Learned Skill
• We must begin by recognizing that
making presentations is a learned
skill. For most of us, it is not
something we can simply get up and
do effectively without having at least
some basic training.
• Take Action: Rehearse
and then Rehearse Again

• Videotape –
• Nothing will improve your
presentation more than seeing
yourself on videotape.
• You will notice mannerisms
about yourself that you never
noticed before.

Presentation nerves
• Audiotape -- Listening to
yourself on audio tape is another tool to
use when you rehearse your
presentations.
• Immediately, you'll know if you are
speaking too quickly, too slowly, or if
some words are difficult to understand.
• You will hear mistakes in grammar and
inappropriate "um's" and "ah's" that
are quite easily removed from your
presentation when you are aware of
them. The audio sessions will also help
you zero in on content and vocal skills.

• "The Presentation"
• You've just been introduced.
• Try this: pause for a few seconds and
"take in" your audience.
• Establish eye contact with them.
• Breathe deeply, smile, and allow
yourself to relax for a moment. Now you
are ready to begin!

Presentation Skills 1. Use Visual Aids
• 1. How we take in information
during a presentation
• Use visuals (pictures, graphs, tables,
props) whenever you can

the communication medium
• Ditch the bullet points (text 7%)

you could expect roughly to double
the chance of achieving your

Presentation Skills 2. Rehearsal
• "If you fail to prepare, you are
prepared to fail“
• 1. Plan to rehearse your presentation
out loud at least 4 times.
Rehearse your presentation and it will get
better.
Rehearsing could make the difference
between a good and an average
presentation.
Make sure that one of your rehearsals is in
front of a really scary audience - family,
friends, partners, colleagues; children.

Presentation Skills 2. Rehearsal
• 2. Rehearse against the
clock
If you have to give a presentation in a
short period of time then try to
practice your presentation against
the clock
Allow extra time in your presentation
for questions and watch out for
nerves - this could mean that you
talk faster on the day.

Presentation Skills 3. The Rule of Three
• 1. The audience are likely to remember only
three things from your presentation - plan in
advance what these will be.
• 2. There are three parts to your presentation-The
beginning, the middle and the end. Start to plan out
what you will do in these three parts. The beginning is
ideal for an attention grabber or for an ice breaker. The
end is great to wrap things up or to end with a grand
finale.
• 3. In Presentations "Less is More“ If you have four
points to get across - cut one out. They won't
remember it anyway. In presentations less really is
more. No one ever complained of a presentation being
too short.
