Tips To Do A Prezi Like Presentation In Powerpoint Successfully

By Ora Dickson


Doing a report in front of an audience can be quite nerve wracking. You will even feel more nervous if you are presenting in front of an audience that are executives of a company. If you are not careful on how you present your data, you might end up losing the trust they have in you. If you wish to have a successful report, then here are tips for your prezi like presentation in Powerpoint.

First, it is imperative that you do the report right on time. You should never be late if you are presenting because this will just put off the audience. When they feel bored or if they are too anxious with what you are about to present, they will end up not getting the gist of what you are trying to come across to them.

You should also take into consideration the message of what you are presenting. You should try to capture the summary of the message of what you are presenting in one sentence. This might be quite difficult but being able to do so should help you show off how knowledgeable you are with the topic. It shows your mastery of the subject.

If you have summed up the message of what you are presenting in one sentence, then you should be able to take advantage of that one sentence to search for results that can support your overall message. You can get basic information as well as experimental details when you search using that one sentence.

Prepare your opening and introduction. The opening and introduction should be enough to catch the attention of the crowd to what you are presenting. It may be a scientific question or it may be a catchy or provocative statement. You can even put out the conclusion of what you are presenting right at the get go.

The crowd should be given the proper greeting that they deserve. This means that you have to acknowledge the audience and thank them for coming to listen to your report. Be certain to give the right greetings. Pay special attention to those who hold the best honor so that you do not overlook their authority.

You should try to use graphs and tables when presenting. Instead of writing out the numbers and putting them in bullet forms or such, having graphs and tables should let the crowd understand what you are presenting to them easily. These are visual aids that can help the crowd catch up to your explanations without having to read a lot of text.

Keep what you are presenting brief and concise. It will be bad if you make it too wordy because not only will the crowd lose you and your explanation, not everyone will be able to read words in the board too. The ones at the back will have a hard time reading the words that are too small for them to read.

There has to be a conclusion to the report. This conclusion must be the bottom line of what you are reporting to your executives. It is important that the executives understand well your message as well as the conclusion that you are trying to get across to them.
