- How to create effective presentation:
A. Set a goal and keep it before you present
- Decide what it is you would like to happen as a result of your presentation
B. Do your homework
- Research your topic- speak about something you have earned the right to talk about through experience and study
C. Plan the parts to your presentation
- List all the points you plan to cover in your presentation
D. Plan your format and delivery
- How you give your presentation can be more important then what you say
2. How to deliver effective presentations:
A. Analyze your audience
- Put yourself in the audience's shoes- try to understand your listener's level of understanding
B. Confidence is key
- Predetermine your mind to success. That's the main secret to being a good presenter: you have to be confident to show confidence
C. Make a powerful first impression
- The audience will judge you from your first appearance, your words and the sound of your voice. Remember, you cannot make first impressions twice.
D. Present with passion
- No matter what you are, we are all in sales. Sell your emotions and transfer your words to the audience to win them over
E. Keep your audience's attention
- Promise to tell the audience how they can get something they want out of your presentation
I agree with your post 100%. I took a public speaking class and these are the exact steps that I went through to prepare my speeches. Delivering a speech perfect takes a lot of practice.

Great post. I liked how you organized all the steps to give a good presentation. It makes it easier for us, readers, to understand and follow the steps. It is important to pay attention to these steps, especially now that we have some group presentations at the end of the semester. Lets practice all those steps and become a better presenter.
