How much time do you spend preparing to deliver a presentation? The majority of us spend most of our time creating the visual presentation, yet we spend very little time rehearsing the delivery. Even if you are leveraging Microsoft Powerpoint as your key visual, you should still practice the actual delivery. You should practice your presentation in its entirety 6 times from start to finish before you present. This will allow you to hone the flow, the timing, and the key points to emphasize in your delivery. This practice is also a good time to capture potential questions that may arise as a result of the information you are sharing. Practice time is a great time to plan for Question & Answer. Preparation is the key to success. How many times do you typically practice before you present?
