Speaking In Public

Casual Discussions Social Events Meetings Interviews Panel Discussions Debates Poster Sessions Formal Presentations Unplanned Opportunities

Elevators, airplanes, trains, restaurants


Warm Up

How did you spend your holiday time?

Pair up


Getting your point across

Communication does not occur until the listener/reader understands what you are communicating.


Communications Strategy

Why - What is your objective/goal? Who – Who is your audience? What –What do you want them to know?

How – Approach, Tone, Format When – Time, how long, how often Where – Location, mode (online, real)

SO? - Did it make a difference?


Effectiveness, Leadership, Action

“…in classical times when Cicero had finished speaking, the people said, ‘How well he spoke,’ but when Demosthenes had finished speaking, they said, ‘Let us march!’”

-- Adlai Stevenson (~1960)

Jay’s Presentation Tips

Start with a “Thank You” Shorter is better

Simpler words Shorter sentences Fewer slides Less time

Start with a Bang! (a Hook!) Something interesting to catch attention Then work to keep attention
