Things to Consider Before Presenting a Presentation by Sachin Karpe

To be a good presenter, you must be prepared. A little advance work can go a very long way when it comes to delivering a compelling, memorable, high-impact presentation says Sachin Karpe. Here are the five key things you need to know before you present – You must know your audience as you have to create the presentation form their perspective, Know Your Material – you have to be familiar with the content you are presenting, you may lack confidence during your delivery, or end up reading directly from notes to avoid making mistakes, know your strengths and weaknesses - stick to what your good at, and deliver your presentation in a way that plays up your proven strengths and you should know what “Plan B” is as disaster can strike at any time before or during your presentation.  You’ll need to know – in advance – how you will handle certain situations.
