Give a Great Presentation by Engaging Your Audience

Tip
Giving great presentations is an art. And while your content is important, it won’t be memorable if your delivery falls flat. Here are three key principles to engage your audience and ensure they have a great experience.
Balance. Walk the tightrope between structure and improvisation. Prepare in advance by thinking about what your audience needs to know, and organize your content into sections by topic. But leave room to respond to their needs during your presentation, even if that means going off script for a while.
Generosity. Your goal should be to offer your audience something new and valuable. Let this principle guide the content you choose to present. People should leave your presentation with an idea, information, or inspiration that they didn’t have before.
Humanity. Rehearse to familiarize yourself with your content, but don’t memorize it. Being too polished can actually be counterproductive — your audience wants to connect with a real human being. If you go blank for a moment, don’t apologize or act flustered. Just pause, take a breath, collect your thoughts, and continue on.

🇨🇳 通过吸引你的听众来做一个好的演讲
做一个好的演讲是一门艺术。而且,虽然你的内容很重要,但如果你的内容没有效果,就不会让人印象深刻。以下是吸引你的用户并确保他们拥有良好体验的三个关键原则。
平衡。在结构和即兴之间走钢丝。提前准备,考虑你的听众需要知道什么,并按照主题将你的内容组织成章节。但是在你的演讲中要留有回应他们需求的空间,即使这意味着要离开脚本一段时间。
慷慨。你的目标应该是为你的听众提供一些新的有价值的东西。让这一原则指导您选择呈现的内容。人们应该在你的演讲结束后留下他们之前没有的想法、信息或灵感。
人性。排练以熟悉你的内容,但不要背诵它。太过精雕细琢实际上会适得其反,你的观众想要与真人建立联系。如果你大脑一片空白,不要道歉,也不要表现得慌张。暂停一下,深呼吸,整理一下思绪,然后继续。
