6-tips-for-giving-a-fabulous-academic-presentation.
Tanya Golash-Boza, Associate Professor of Sociology, University of California
January 11, 2022
One of the easiest ways to stand out at an academic conference is to give a fantastic presentation.
In this post, I will discuss a few simple techniques that can make your presentation stand out. Although, it does take time to make a good presentation, it is well worth the investment.
Tip #1: Use PowerPoint Judiciously
Images are powerful. Research shows that images help with memory and learning. Use this to your advantage by finding and using images that help you make your point. One trick I have learned is that you can use images that have blank space in them and you can put words in those images.
Here is one such example from a presentation I gave about immigration law enforcement.
PowerPoint is a great tool, so long as you use it effectively. Generally, this means using lots of visuals and relatively few words. Never use less than 24-point font. And, please, never put your presentation on the slides and read from the slides.
Tip #2: There is a formula to academic presentations. Use it.
Once you have become an expert at giving fabulous presentations, you can deviate from the formula. However, if you are new to presenting, you might want to follow it. This will vary slightly by field, however, I will give an example from my field – sociology – to give you an idea as to what the format should look like:
Tip #3: The audience wants to hear about your research. Tell them.
One of the most common mistakes I see in people giving presentations is that they present only information I already know. This usually happens when they spend nearly all of the presentation going over the existing literature and giving background information on their particular case. You need only to discuss the literature with which you are directly engaging and contributing. Your background information should only include what is absolutely necessary. If you are giving a 15-minute presentation, by the 6 th minute, you need to be discussing your data or case study. At conferences, people are there to learn about your new and exciting research, not to hear a summary of old work.
Tip #4: Practice. Practice. Practice.
You should always practice your presentation in full before you deliver it. You might feel silly delivering your presentation to your cat or your toddler, but you need to do it and do it again. You need to practice to ensure that your presentation fits within the time parameters. Practicing also makes it flow better. You can’t practice too many times.
Tip #5: Keep To Your Time Limit
If you have ten minutes to present, prepare ten minutes of material. No more. Even if you only have seven minutes, you need to finish within the allotted time. If you write your presentation out, a general rule of thumb is two minutes per typed, double-spaced page. For a fifteen-minute talk, you should have no more than 7 double-spaced pages of material.
Tip #6: Don’t Read Your Presentation
Yes, I know that in some fields reading is the norm. But, can you honestly say that you find yourself engaged when listening to someone read their conference presentation? If you absolutely must read, I suggest you read in such a way that no one in the audience can tell you are reading. I have seen people do this successfully, and you can do it too if you write in a conversational tone, practice several times, and read your paper with emotion, conviction, and variation in tone.

In theory, it couldn’t be easier to take your written research proposal and turn it into a presentation. Many people find presenting ideas easier than writing about them as writing is inherently difficult. On the other hand, standing up in front of a room of strangers, or worse those you know, is also a bewildering task. Essentially, you have a story to tell, but does not mean you are story telling. It means that your presentation will require you to talk continuously for your alloted period of time, and that the sentences must follow on from each other in a logical narative; i.e. a story.
So where do you start?
Here are some simple rules to help guide you to build your presentation:
Keep to your written proposal formula
Slide layout
Practice, practice, practice
Maybe I've got it all wrong?
There are some things that I still need to learn about presentations. Have a look at the following video and see what you think. There are some really good points made here, and I think I should update my example slides to reflect these ideas. I especially like the use of contrast to focus attention.
Presenting your research is a key component of conducting research. Some students conduct research to gather a more in-depth look into their field. Others are looking to build their research skills and portfolio. Whatever your reason may be for presenting, the task can seem a little intimidating at first. One way to combat this presentation anxiety is with careful preparation and understanding what is expected from your presentation. Knowing the guidelines for each type of presentation is the first step to making sure your presentation is a good representation of all of your hard work.
1. be organized.
Know the clear and unifying point of your research, and be able to communicate it to an audience.
Most research in the sciences and some social sciences is organized in the following components (or versions of them):
In other disciplines, these components may be less formal, but all research should have an introduction, address a question or problem, and discuss or analyze the results of its inquiry. Consult with your faculty mentor regarding selecting the best format for your presentation. The Purdue Online Writing Lab has a lot of resources for student researchers including style guides. Students can also search past Student RSCA Conference and Creative Activities and Research Symposium (CARS) abstracts through the Bronco ScholarWorks University Library website , CSU Scholar Works RSCA Conference Abstract Collection , CSU ScholarWorks CARS Abstracts Collection.
4. anticipate possible questions.
Take notes on questions (and the names and addresses of the contacts you’ll make while discussing your work).
6. credit all sources; be truthful; respect your audience, oral & performance presentation guidelines.
Preparing & presenting.
We encourage you to use the tips below that will best help you prepare your for your oral or performance presentation.
Student presenters with questions about computer or technical support should contact the event organizers in advance at [email protected] .
For the campus conference held in-person, Cal Poly Pomona will provide computers, projectors, and screens for students making oral presentations with visual aids. (PowerPoint is the only supported presentation software, it is the students’ responsibility to make sure the format, version, and presentation software works on the provided computers.) All computers are PCs. Participants should not bring their own computers.
Aside from posters, sometimes students might have to present their research using slides. Here are some examples of slides ranging from basic, busy and organized.

We encourage you to use the tips below that will best help you prepare your poster and creative works presentation.
In-Person Poster Format Guidelines
Poster presentations should be no larger than 4'(width) x 3'(height) Landscape. When you apply to present, the conference will provide specific guidelines on whether your poster will be pinned to bulletin board or mounted on a hard backing that will be displayed on an individual easel. Follow the instructions provided by the specific conference. Also please note: NO TAPE, VELCRO, GLUESTICKS, or other permanent fasteners should be visible. If you require a special set-up for your presentation such as a table to display a prototype or design project, please notify the conference so that they can accommodate your request.
Space on a poster is limited, so pick wisely what to present. Your display should be self-explanatory and have a logical flow—others should be able to follow the order even if you are not present. Start with a rough draft of your design on paper, using graph paper or post-it notes to simulate sections.
Place your title at the top of the poster and make sure that the text is large (usually at least 2 inches in height) and clear. Include your name and major, and the name of your faculty mentor and his/her department name, the name of your school and the names of other co-authors. Incorporate appropriate graphics in your poster. Label or describe any charts, tables, figures, graphs, or photos that you use. Make sure all edges line up evenly. Edit, review, and spell check all the elements of your poster display. Be sure to firmly attach all materials to your poster board (spray adhesive, found in art supply stores, works best).

Over the past few weeks, we’ve both spent a fair amount of time at conferences. Given that many conferences ask researchers to summarize their work in 15 to 20 minutes, we thought we’d reflect on some ideas for how to do this, and – more importantly – how to do it well.

There are many different types of research presentations, but the different types of presentations can be divided into two general categories: written presentations and oral presentations. Written research presentations include dissertations and theses, posters, grant and project proposals, blogs, websites, PowerPoint slides, etc. Oral research presentations include lectures, conference presentations, job talks, etc. Often, oral and written methods of presentation are combined to effectively convey information about research. For example, posters or PowerPoint slides may be used to support oral presentations of research, or information on posters may be supplemented with oral explanations. Whichever type of research presentation you choose for your research, you should remember the following about the similarities and differences between oral and written presentations.
The fundamental elements of successfully presenting research apply to both oral and written presentations. Whether you choose to present your research orally or in written form, you should know and actively engage your audience in the presentation of your research to effectively deliver your ideas. Organization is also important in both written and oral presentations. You can create outlines of your research that you can use to help you organize information for both oral and written presentations.
The most important difference between oral and written presentations is the time that is available for your audience to process what you have presented about your research. In written presentations, your audience has an unlimited amount of time to read, re-read, and analyze your research; if your audience does not understand particularly dense elements of your research, your audience has plenty of time to mull over your research until it becomes more understandable. In oral presentations, however, you generally have a limited amount of time to present your research, and your audience has even less time to understand what you have said. In both oral and written presentations (but particularly in oral presentations), you can help your audience understand your research by defining important key terms. After you have defined the key terms for your written or oral presentation, you must use them and any other jargon consistently throughout your entire presentation to help your audience avoid confusion.

Preparing for the presentation.
When you give a presentation, it's tempting to start off by considering what you are going to be presenting. A better approach is to look at why you are presenting in the first place, and what your audience needs are.
In the introduction to this section, we mentioned a number of possible reasons for giving a presentation about your research – defending a dissertation, a job interview, a conference, and asking for funding. Knowing the purpose of your presentation is a matter of determining the actions which you want to stimulate in your audience. Here are some examples:
Reason for presentation | Type of presentation | Intended outcome |
---|---|---|
Defend dissertation | Mini-seminar on thesis: present cogently | Thesis successfully defended |
Academic job interview | Mini-seminar on main features of research: summarize, inform, influence | Offer of job |
Conference presentation | Mini-seminar on main features of a particular aspect of research: inform | Interest in research; add to networks |
Seeking funding | Seek to influence non expert audience on the importance of topic, and of synergy with their own work | Obtain funding |
Many people working for universities are used to lecturing; it is a mistake to consider making presentations as a similar activity. In the former you are presenting information, whereas all the above examples (with the possible exception of conference presentations) call for a degree of selling – your dissertation, yourself, or your project. The emotional dynamic is different, and it is important to be aware of this.
Reason for presentation | Audience | ||
---|---|---|---|
Defend dissertation | Your thesis examiners | Knowledgeable but your knowledge of topic greater | To be convinced that your thesis makes a contribution to research |
Academic job interview | Rest of the department | Knowledgeable but not in the same field | To have their own research strengths reinforced or complemented |
Conference presentation | Others, probably academics, with a similar interest | Knowledgeable; may also be experts in the same field | To gain knowledge/insights which will help their own work; to build up networks |
Seeking funding | Commercial sponsors; panels for grant-giving bodies | Not experts in the field; probably have different attitude to knowledge | To solve a business problem |
It is very important, when considering your audience, to know:
If you are being examined for a thesis, you will obviously do a great deal of background on your examiners, finding out what their research in the area is. In the case of a job interview , it is probable that you will have to do a presentation about your research to other members of the department; you can find out about them and their research strengths from the departmental web pages, and make any connections with people whose research interests are similar to yours. For a conference presentation, the background/needs of your audience will be determined by the topic of the conference.
In some respects, the most difficult audience to prepare for is that for whom you are making a presentation to obtain money for research . If you are presenting to a panel from a funding body, find out the composition of the panel and their interests. The most likely reason however is seeking commercial sponsorship. In this case, it is important to identify:
For example, you may be interested in doing research on the supply chain, but your potential sponsor will also have an interest in its effectiveness. Likewise, your own research may be on the psychological process of decision making, but why people make decisions in particular to purchase your products or services is a part of what business is all about!
It is normal practice in job interview to be informed as to the length of the presentation; it is very important if you are not informed to find out the length and whether this includes questions. A rough rule of thumb is, for every minute of presentation, allow 100 words, slowly and clearly spoken.
Find out about the location of the presentation – will it be in a seminar room, meeting room, board room, someone's office?
What sort of equipment will you have at your disposal? (See Technical matters – using Microsoft PowerPoint )
How formal is the presentation – will you be expected to present without interruptions and then answer questions, or will you be expected to do something more interactive, taking questions as you go along?
Once you have done your research, you will know all about your audience and its needs, and the actions you need to stimulate, and how long you are expected to speak for. The next stage is planning the actual presentation.
These days, particularly in a commercial setting, it is expected that the presentation will be accompanied by slides created using Microsoft PowerPoint. Because of this, we deal with more general points of planning on this page, and the more specific aspects of preparing the slides to go with your presentation in the page in Technical matters – using Microsoft PowerPoint .
Introduction, the body of the presentation, using graphics, practise, practise, practise, supporting documents.
This is the first chance you have to grab your audience's attention – take it! It is usual to have a cover slide with the title of the presentation and your name: while this is up on the screen, take the opportunity to introduce yourself briefly. Having done that, make some arresting statement which sums up your presentation in a way that will make them prick up their ears and convince them that you understand their needs .
For example, you are seeking funding on ways of streamlining the production line for the creation of space rockets. This could be stated as:
"Would you like to improve the production management of your space rocket construction?"
Or, you may be interested comparing how people manage projects with and without software. This could be stated as:
"Would you like to understand the factors that improve project management?"
Obviously, you will have to show how your research will in fact reveal these factors.
Of course, there are other circumstances when it might be better not to make explicit reference to your audience's needs, for example, when you are attending a job interview you could start like this:
"I want to talk to you about my research in the area of X, where I have key interests in a, b, and c."
The next part of your presentation should be a brief summary of what you are going to cover: this will give the audience a roadmap.
First, you need to decide what material you need to cover. There are various ways of doing this, not necessarily mutually exclusive:
You also need to establish how you are going to structure the presentation. Here are some possible approaches:
The occasion of the presentation will also help determine its structure. For a job interview, you may wish to use a topic based approach providing a few general statements about your research (the detail will be in your publications/work in progress, a list of which will have been supplied with your application).
A presentation requesting funding requires a different approach in that you are probably talking about future research. You could adopt a problem based approach, but you will also need to describe the stages of the project with built in milestones so that your potential sponsors can feel that they are monitoring progress, and obtaining tangible benefits along the way.
Some further points to remember are:
Briefly recapitulate the main points, referring to your objective. In the case of a presentation for sponsorship, make a specific request for action – "We need £x amount over y time period."
It is important to make a visual impact with your audience – we will discuss other ways of doing this, such as through design, when we come to the section on Technical matters: using Microsoft PowerPoint . Here we are talking specifically about the use of graphics. These can clarify concepts, help make your presentation appealing, add variety and interest, and retain audience attention. However, make sure that your graphics:
Use a graphic type suitable for making a point:
Once you have written your presentation, and assembled your overheads, you need to practise to ensure:
Remember, your presentation is really just a snapshot of the entire information you are trying to convey.
One of the more challenging aspects of doing a presentation can be using the technology. In the commercial sector, this means using PowerPoint, a Microsoft product which allows you to build a slide show.
If you are not familiar with PowerPoint, you will find it on most Microsoft Office packages, and it is not a difficult piece of software to learn. Microsoft do a number of training courses : "Create your first presentation" is a good introduction.
PowerPoint is a powerful tool, but like all powerful tools if not well used it can be deadly!
If you are well prepared, that's over half the battle. On this page we'll look at a few things you need to remember on the day, including body language and dress.
Arrive early at the venue, to check out the room, equipment etc.
The following points are worth bearing in mind:
Advice on presenting your research from the Kansas University Medical Center
Using LaTeX add-ins
Published on 01 Feb 2023
Presenting at a conference can be stressful, but can lead to many opportunities, which is why coming prepared is super beneficial.
The internet is full to the brim with tips for making a good presentation. From what you wear to how you stand to good slide design, there’s no shortage of advice to make any old presentation come to life.
But, not all presentations are created equal. Research presentations, in particular, are unique.
Communicating complex concepts to an audience with a varied range of awareness about your research topic can be tricky. A lack of guidance and preparation can ruin your chance to share important information with a conference community. This could mean lost opportunities in collaboration or funding or lost confidence in yourself and your work.
So, we’ve put together a list of tips with research presentations in mind. Here’s our top to-do’s when preparing to present your research.
The worst thing you could do for your research is to not present it at all. As intimidating as it can be to get up in front of an audience, you shouldn’t let that stop you from seizing a good opportunity to share your work with a wider community.
These contestants from the Vitae Three Minute Thesis Competition have some great advice to share on taking every possible chance to talk about your research.
Before you get started on your presentation, double-check if you’ve been given guidelines for it.
If you don’t have specific guidelines for the context of your presentation, we’ve put together a general outline to help you get started. It’s made with the assumption of a 10-15 minute presentation time. So, if you have longer to present, you can always extend important sections or talk longer on certain slides:
Plan for about one minute for each slide of information that you have. Be sure that you don’t cram your slides with text (stick to bullet points and images to emphasize key points).
And, if you’re looking for more inspiration to help you in scripting an oral research presentation. University of Virginia has a helpful oral presentation outline script .
A PhD Student working on an upcoming oral presentation.
As mentioned in the intro, research presentations are unique because they deal with specialized topics and complicated concepts. There’s a good chance that a large section of your audience won’t have the same understanding of your topic area as you do. So, do your best to understand where your listeners are at and adapt your language/definitions to that.
There’s an increasing awareness around the importance of scientific communication. Comms experts have even started giving TED Talks on how to bridge the gap between science and the public (check out Talk Nerdy to Me ). A general communication tip is to find out what sort of audience will listen to your talk. Then, beware of using jargon and acronyms unless you're 100% certain that your audience knows what they mean.
On the other end of the spectrum, you don’t want to underestimate your audience. Giving too much background or spending ages summarizing old work to a group of experts in the field would be a waste of valuable presentation time (and would put you at risk of losing your audience's interest).
Finally, if you can, practice your presentation on someone with a similar level of topic knowledge to the audience you’ll be presenting to.
In scenarios where it’s appropriate, crafting a story allows you to break free from the often rigid tone of scientific communications. It helps your brain hit the refresh button and observe your findings from a new perspective. Plus, it can be a lot of fun to do!
If you have a chance to use scientific storytelling in your presentation, take full advantage of it. The best way to weave a story for your audience into a presentation is by setting the scene during your introduction. As you set the context of your research, set the context of your story/example at the same time. Continue drawing those parallels as you present. Then, deliver the main message of the story (or the “Aha!”) moment during your presentation’s conclusion.
If delivered well, a good story will keep your audience on the edge of their seats and glued to your entire presentation.
Along the same lines as using storytelling, it’s important to think of WHY your audience should care about your work. Find ways to connect your research to valuable outcomes in society. Take your individual points on each slide and bring things back to the bigger picture. Constantly remind your listeners how it’s all connected and why that’s important.
One helpful way to get in this mindset is to look back to the moment before you became an expert on your topic. What got you interested? What was the reason for asking your research question? And, what motivated you to power through all the hard work to come? Then, looking forward, think about what key takeaways were most interesting or surprised you the most. How can these be applied to impact positive change in your research field or the wider community?
It’s tempting to discuss all the small details of your methods or findings. Instead, focus on the most important information and takeaways that you think your audience will connect with. Decide on these takeaways before you script your presentation so that you can set the scene properly and provide only the information that has an added value.
When it comes to choosing data to display in your presentation slides, keep it simple. Wherever possible, use visuals to communicate your findings as opposed to large tables filled with numbers. This article by Richard Chambers has some great tips on using visuals in your slides and graphs.
With the above tip in mind: Just because you don’t include data and tables in your main presentation slides, doesn’t mean you can’t keep them handy for reference. If there’s a Q&A session after your presentation (or if you’ll be sharing your slides to view on-demand after) one great trick is to include additional slides/materials after your closing slide. You can keep these in your metaphorical “back pocket” to refer to if a specific question is asked about a data set or method. They’re also handy for people viewing your presentation slides later that might want to do a deeper dive into your methods/results.
However, just because you have these extra slides doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make the effort to make that information more accessible. A research conference platform like Fourwaves allows presenters to attach supplementary materials (figures, posters, slides, videos and more) that conference participants can access anytime.
Curiosity is a good thing. Whether you have a Q&A session or not, you should want to leave your audience with a few key questions. The most important one:
“Where can I find out more?”
Obviously, it’s important to answer basic questions about your research context, hypothesis, methods, results, and interpretation. If you answer these while focusing on the “Why?” and weaving a good story, you’ll be setting the stage for an engaging Q&A session and/or some great discussions in the halls after your presentation. Just be sure that you have further links or materials ready to provide to those who are curious.
Throughout the entire process of scripting, creating your slides, and presenting, it’s important to remember that no one knows your research better than you do. If you’re nervous, remind yourself that the people who come to listen to your presentation are most likely there due to a genuine interest in your work. The pressure isn’t to connect with an uninterested audience - it’s to make your research more accessible and relevant for an already curious audience.

What is a research presentation.
Research Presentation is a visual representation of an individual or a team's observational findings or invocation in a particular subject.
To effectively convey your research findings to your audience, various phases are involved in creating a research presentation. Whether you're giving a presentation at a conference or a business meeting,
To begin with, the idea of research presentation, choosing topics that align with your expertise and knowledge is the first and foremost. After understanding the topic, collect core factual and empirical data for proper understanding. After gauging information, it creates a place for every subtopic that must be introduced.

Presentation skills are essential for your personal and professional life. Learn about effective presentations and how to boost your presenting techniques.
Presentation skills are essential for a successful career in many fields. They are important for building confidence, enhancing collaboration, and developing robust critical-thinking skills. Although it might be tempting to think these skills are reserved for people interested in public speaking roles, they're critical in diverse jobs. For example, you may need to use presentation skills to pitch new ideas to clients or to explain your perspective on an issue to a manager.
Presentation skills are essential in various scenarios, including working with a team and explaining your thought process, walking clients through project ideas and timelines, and highlighting your strengths and achievements to your manager during performance reviews.
Whatever the scenario, you want to begin by capturing your audience’s attention with a well-crafted opening and get your point across when presenting information. Effective presentation skills help you get your point across and connect with the people you’re communicating with, which is why nearly every employer requires them.
Understanding what presentation skills are is only half the battle. Honing your techniques is essential for mastering presentations of all kinds and in all settings.
Presentation skills are the abilities and qualities necessary for creating and delivering a compelling presentation that effectively communicates information and ideas. They encompass what you say, how you structure it, and the materials you include to support what you say, such as slides, videos, or images.
You'll make presentations at various times in your life. Examples include:
Making speeches at a wedding, conference, or another event
Making a toast at a dinner or event
Explaining projects to a team
Delivering results and findings to management teams
Teaching people specific methods or information
Proposing a vote at community group meetings
Pitching a new idea or business to potential partners or investors
Delivering effective presentations is critical in your professional and personal life. You’ll need to hone your presentation skills in various areas, such as when giving a speech, convincing your partner to make a substantial purchase, and talking to friends and family about an important situation.
Whether you’re using them in a personal or professional setting, these skills make it easier and more effective to convey your ideas, convince or persuade others, and experience success. A few of the benefits that often accompany improving your presentation skills include:
Enriched written and verbal communication skills
Enhanced confidence and self-image
Boosted critical thinking and problem-solving capabilities
Better motivational techniques
Increased leadership skills
Expanded time management, negotiation, and creativity
The better your presenting techniques, the more engaging your presentations will be. You could also have greater opportunities to impact business and other areas of your life positively.
Imagine yourself in the audience at a TED Talk or sitting with your coworkers at a big meeting held by your employer. What would you be looking for in how they deliver their message? What would make you feel engaged?
Those are a few questions to ask yourself as you review this list of effective presentation skills.
How you use language and deliver messages is essential to how your audience will receive your presentation. Speak clearly and confidently, projecting your voice enough to ensure everyone can hear. Think before you speak, pausing when necessary, and tailoring the way you talk to resonate with your particular audience.
Body language combines critical elements, including posture, gestures, eye contact, expressions, and position in front of the audience. Body language is one of the elements that can instantly transform a presentation that would otherwise be dull into one that's dynamic and interesting.
Projecting your voice improves your presentation by allowing your audience to hear you. It also increases your confidence, helping to settle lingering nerves while making your message more engaging. To project your voice, stand comfortably with your shoulders back. Take deep breaths to power your voice and ensure you enunciate every syllable.
How you present yourself affects your body language and ability to project your voice. It also sets the tone for the presentation. Remain open, upright, and adaptable while considering the formality of the occasion instead of slouching or looking overly tense.
Many powerful public speakers use storytelling effectively and incorporate it into their presentations. Storytelling can bring your subject to life and pique the audience’s curiosity. Don’t be afraid to tell a personal story, slowly building up suspense or adding a dramatic moment. And, of course, be sure to end with a positive takeaway to drive your point home.
Active listening is a valuable skill all on its own. When you understand and thoughtfully respond to what you hear—whether it's in a conversation or during a presentation—you’ll likely deepen your personal relationships and actively engage audiences during a presentation. As part of your presentation skill set, it helps catch and maintain the audience’s attention, helping them remain focused while minimising passive response, ensuring the message is delivered correctly, and encouraging a call to action.
During a presentation, projecting confidence can help keep your audience engaged. Stage presence can help you connect with your audience and encourage them to want to watch you. To improve your presence, try amplifying your normal demeanour with enthusiasm. Project confidence and keep your information interesting.
Watch your audience as you present. If you hold their attention, it likely means you’re connecting well with them.
Monitoring your emotions and reactions will allow you to react well in various situations. It will also help you remain personable throughout your presentation and handle feedback well. Self-awareness can help soothe nervousness during presentations, allowing you to perform more effectively.
Writing is a form of presentation. Sharp writing skills can help you master your presentation’s outline to ensure you stay on message and remain clear about your objectives from the beginning until the end. It’s also helpful to have strong writing abilities for creating compelling slides and other visual aids.
When you understand your audience's needs and interests, you can design your presentation around them. This will deliver maximum value to them and enhance your ability to make your message easy to understand.
Public speaking is an art form of sorts, and just like any other type of art, this is one that requires practice. Improving your presentation skills will help reduce miscommunications, enhance your time management capabilities, and boost your leadership skills. The following offers a few tips to help you improve these skills:
When you’re confident, you naturally speak more clearly and with more authority. Preparing your presentation with a strong opening and compelling visual aids can help you feel more confident. Other ways to improve your self-confidence include practising positive self-talk, surrounding yourself with positive people, and avoiding comparing yourself (or your presentation) to others.
Many people are nervous or fearful before giving a presentation. A bad memory of past performance or insufficient self-confidence can contribute to fear and anxiety. Having a few go-to strategies like deep breathing, practising your presentation, and grounding can help you transform that fear into extra energy to put into your stage presence.
Grounding is a technique that helps you steer your focus away from distressing thoughts and keeps you connected with your present self. To ground yourself, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and imagine you’re a large, mature tree with roots extending deep into the earth—like the tree, you can become unshakable.
Visual aids and other technical support can transform an otherwise good presentation into a wow-worthy one. A few popular presentation tools include:
Canva: Provides easy-to-design templates you can customise
Powtoon: Animation software that makes video creation fast and easy
PowerPoint: Microsoft's iconic program popular for dynamic marketing and sales presentations
Breathing techniques can help quell anxiety, making it easier to shake off pre-presentation jitters and nerves. It also helps relax your muscles and get more oxygen to your brain. For some pre-presentation calmness, you can take deep breaths, slowly inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth.
While presenting, breathe in through your mouth with the back of your tongue relaxed so your audience doesn't hear a gasping sound. Speak on your exhalation, maintaining a smooth voice.
The more you practice, the better you’ll become. The more you do anything, the more comfortable you’ll feel engaging in that activity. Presentations are no different. Repeatedly practising your own presentation also offers the opportunity to get feedback from other people and tweak your style and content as needed.
Your presentation isn’t about you but the material you’re presenting. Sometimes, reminding yourself of this ahead of taking centre stage can help take you out of your head and allow you to connect effectively with your audience. The following are many actions you can take on the day of your presentation.
Since you may have a bit of presentation-related anxiety, it’s important to avoid adding travel stress. Give yourself ample time to arrive at your destination, and consider heavy traffic and other unforeseen events. By arriving early, you also give yourself time to meet with any on-site technicians, test your equipment, and connect with people ahead of the presentation.
Arriving early also allows you to assess the room and determine where you want to stand. Experiment with the acoustics to determine how loudly you need to project your voice and test your equipment to make sure everything connects and appears properly with the available setup. This is an excellent opportunity to work out any last-minute concerns and move around to familiarise yourself with the setting for improved stage presence.
When you watch others present, you'll get a feel for the room's acoustics and lighting. You can also listen for any relevant data and revisit it during your presentation—this can make the presentation more interactive and engaging.
Writing yourself a script could provide you with more comfort. To prevent sounding too robotic or disengaged, only include talking points in your note cards if you get off track. Using note cards can help keep your presentation organised while sounding more authentic to your audience.
Cultivating effective presentation skills can be helpful in your personal and professional life, aiding you in everything from making a toast at your next celebration to pitching your team on a new project. Rehearsing your presentation and preparing ahead of time can help smooth the way forward, but these are only two options to improve your presentation skills.

Team Presentations are routinely used in academia. However, there is a significant lack of published research outlining a framework for team presentation strategies and techniques that can be applied to students, faculty and business professionals.
Dr. Daniel Usera, Clinical Marketing Professor, walks readers through the dynamic task of presenting as a team with different examples . W hile comparing and contrasting different styles that are well explained and easy to understand. The article instructs and informs readers about transitions styles and presentation styles.
Initially, he highlights the speech writing five-point outline. Typically starting with an introduction, three main points, and a conclusion. After highlighting topics, he explains various speaker's roles. T he opener who delivers the introduction, each following speaker presents a main point, and a closer who finishes with the conclusion.
Each group member should access and lean into their strengths during the presentation to complete the experience. Usera mentions in the article that speaker roles should depend on talent, subject matter experience, and the size of the team. To facilitate a team ’ s transitional periods between speakers, Usera spotlights four different options which are Hosted, Un-hosted, Overhand, and Topical transitions.
Two students pitch during a group pitching event on Dec. 13, 2022.
Transitions
Hosted Transitions
A host conducts the handoff between two team members
Un-hosted Transitions
Transitioning speakers conduct their hand-off without a host
Overhand Transitions
Preceding speaker says the transitions statement before handing off the microphone or microphone
Topical Transitions
The next point is set up without a hand-off
The article f o cuses on presentation styles and how teams interact internally during a presentation . Usera presents 5 different presentation options including Hosted, Relay, Hybrid, Popcorn, and Duo. Each format can utilize the same material while presenting a different way .
Team Presentation Formats
Hosted Format
Relies on one speaker to open and end the presentation and conduct transitions between main point speakers (uses hosted transitions)
Relay Format
Spreads speaking responsibilities equally between all group members
Three Advantages: most common and natural format that audiences might expect speakers to use ; one speaker is not emphasized over the rest; un - h osted transition style can be quicker than hosted ones
Hybrid Format
Uses the same speaker to open and close while executing un -h osted transitions
Benefits of Hybrid method
Opener/closer engage the audiences with their strong speaking skills establishing a connection and credibility
Reengaging with the audience can create a memorable ending
Popcorn Format
Creates a more conversational and casual presentation
All speakers can participate in the introduction, main points, and conclusion
No distinct speak roles; can be completely improvised
For teams of two; both speakers conduct the introduction, main points and the conclusion
The duo format allows group members to take turn s speaking throughout the presentation, moving through topics rather than speakers
Risks Associated
Requires additional coordination or rehearsal
Can be imbalanced towards one team member over the other
The presentation styles can be used dynamically , a llowing a team to keep the audience engaged with different topics, multiple speakers and keeping a constant pace throughout the presentation. Usera mentions, “ An essential strategic decision that all teams must make is how they deploy their speaking talent. The five team presentation formats offer different approaches and trade-offs to this question. ” Talent and strengths should be considered as a team choose s a format to work with.
Dr. Usera, Clinical Associate Professor of Marketing at The University of Texas at Arlington, published this article titled “ Team Presentation Theory I: The Five Formats ” in the Business and Professional Communication Quarterly academic journal in January 2024.
