FOUR PHASES OF THE PRESENTATION


Adding power to the four phases of the presentation:

    A presentation is the process of showing, explaining or presenting on a topic to an audience. It is typically:
•      a demonstration
•       introduction
•       lecture
•       or speech
    It is meant to inform, persuade, inspire, motivate, or to build goodwill or to present a new idea or product.

Every presentation must have 4P’s which are as below and must be followed with the bottom-up approach.



1.     Plan

    Plan is the process of thinking about the all the activities required to achieve the goal. Following things should be considered during planning:
To add power to the presentation we first should know Why, What and Who.

a.      Why?

-          Why are we going to present?
Goal, objective


b.      What?

-           What is the purpose of presentation?
To teach or train
To inform or educate
To persuade
To motivate to act

c.       Who?

-          Who are you presenting for?
         Age level
         Culture or religion
         Language

2.     Prepare

We should prepare well before any presentation. preparations can be done through:
Ø  Research
Ø  Books
Ø  Internet
Ø  Article
   We can also take examples, tables or chats, jokes images to make audience attentive during the presentation.

Following points should be considered to add power in the presentation:
•      Prepare a memorable conclusion
•      Keep it short and simple
•      Tell stories connected with audience
•      Use limited notes
•      Visualize yourself
•      Research about fun facts, jokes etc. about the topic to make audience attentive.

3.     Practice

Practice is a process of learning though the repetition. Practice helps to decrease nervousness and overcome anxiety.

Why?

“…because the more connected we are to our material the more connected our audience will be to us”
    We can practice until we become familiar with speech. We can practice:
•      In mirror
•      In video
•      In front of family, friends or teacher




 Trust me – Rehearse
                               Rehearse
                                           and
                                       Rehearse

“Practice makes a man perfect.”

•      Judge our time
•      Clear points
•      Delivering strong opinion
•      Closure with a strong ending
                                          



4.     Present

    This phase associates with the process of delivering the ideas and explaining the topic in front of live audience. It is the final phase of the presentation process.
We will be able to present well if we plan, prepare and practice properly.
Following points should be considered to add power to the presentation:
•      Own the Subject
•      Feel positive
•      Confident and relaxed
•      Well groomed and smart
•      Have vary voice
•      Use vivid words
•      Manage proper timing
•      Say ‘we’ not ‘you’
•      Clear and concise
•      Use different body language
•      Don’t be too fast
•      Involve the audience (don’t just let them to listen, let them raise questions and doubts.)


   We will be able to deliver proper presentation. If we properly follow the 4p’s of presentation process. We will be able to deliver exact concept of the whole presentation if we plan beforehand, prepare well and practice enough.
