1001 Presentation Tips (Word DOCX)

This publication contains over 1000 tips to help you improve your presentations and speeches.

It is probably the most extensive collection of short tips you will find anywhere. It is based on my experience teaching presentation skills to thousands of adults over 22 years.

Having watched and assessed tens of thousands of presentations of a very wide variety trainees from diverse backgrounds and with different skill levels, I have compiled the wisdom gained from this experience and condensed it into 70 pages of useful tips.

Each tip has been carefully written to make it simple, clear and thought provoking.

The tips have been grouped into 66 categories for easy reference. This makes finding the right tip very easy. The categories include Audience, Body language, Closing, Content, Delivery, Eye Contact, Gestures, Hook Phrases, Humor, Movement, Opening, Planning, Posture, PowerPoint, Questions, Rehearsals, Slides, Stage Fright, Story Telling, Structure, Title and Voice.

I have included a presentation planning tool to help you plan your presentation – all you have to do is fill in the boxes.

I have included a presentation assessment tool you or someone else can use to assess your presentation. This tool looks at over 80 elements on one A4 page. Simply completing this form will help you identify many areas you can work on to improve your presentation. When you have identified them, simply turn to the tips to look up solutions for your challenges.

This publication is also an excellent tool for anyone wanting to teach presentation skills. Using this publication will allow you to make over one hundred suggestions for anyone you are assessing. You will have the wisdom gained from watching and assessing tens of thousands of presentations.
