Coffee breaks, lunches, accommodation for delegates/for speakers Delivering the Presentation: Your Visual Image. Your voice never conveys your whole message, nor does your choice of words. A critical part of your presentation success is your visual image: your posture, eye contact, facial expressions, head movements, gestures and dress. Three parts to a professional image Sound like a professional Speak like a professional Look like a professional Avoiding distractions in your presentation is essential. Many times I have attended presentations where the presenter had annoying or distracting mannerisms that took my attention away from the ‘message’ and had me concentrating more on the ‘messenger’. Here are some examples: Swaying or rocking motion Pacing too much Dress not appropriate to the situation Thumping or tapping on lectern or flipchart Staring at notes, floor or ceiling Tugging at ear Jingling coins in pocket Pointing finger at audience Slouching or slumped shoulders Clinging for life to the lectern Body Language Tips The best way to eliminate negative body language is to be aware of what we do. We should try to be conscious at all times of using positive body language. It helps to practise body language. For example, practise your stance. Stand with your feet less than shoulder width apart. Don’t lean into the audience, but don’t turn your body away either. Use an open posture. Stand upright and not slouched. Keep your shoulders back but keep them relaxed. Don’t fold your arms across your body, or put your hands across your face. Never put your hands in your pockets. Make positive eye-contact. Keep regular eye-contact with the audience, but don’t stare at any one individual. Practise smiling and using friendly expressions. Get a happy medium - you don’t want to scowl or look too serious, but you don’t want to look inane either. Use open gestures. Hand gestures should be made with up-turned open palms. Make sure your gestures, movements or facial expressions are natural. Nerves can make us exaggerate our body language which creates the wrong effect. If you can, take the opportunity to see yourself perform on video. This is a useful way of getting a critical look at the body language you are using and practise improvements. Alternatively, practise in front of a mirror or in front of a trusted friend. Body language - some simple rules easy eye contact across the whole audience relaxed posture head up but not tilted at an angle face the audience arms comfortable open gestures with arms/hands smile/friendly expression Other Presentation skills training articles : Presentation tips Overcoming presentation fear How to structure a presentation Powerpoint Presentation skills Powerpoint presentation tips and techniques Using visual aids in Powerpoint presentations How to use transitions in Powerpoint presentations Back to TOP					OUR PREVIOUS CLIENTS INCLUDE: Thames Valley Police National Air Traffic Control Tesco Luton Borough Council Legal Services Commission Remploy Physiological Society British Retail Consortium University of East London Amnesty International Hyde Housing Carbon Trust Glaxo Smith Kline Game Conservancy Trust Serco Docklands Light Railway Suffolk County Council Thale Translink Tennyson Group Goldman Sachs Merseyside Police Mencap Renaissance Hotels Berners Hotel South East Essex College Johnson and Johnson Ernst and Young Toshiba London Borough of Greenwich Direct Line Insurance Rank Leisure Epilepsy Society Lloyds of London Bank of America Level 3 Communications Abbey Life Thistle Hotels Tetrapak Informa Group Marcus Evans Legal and General Nationwide Building Society Eurostar HJ Heinnz Halifax Barclays Global Investors BAE Systems Holmes Place Health Clubs Action Energy and the Carbon Trust British Airways STA Travel Ernst and Young London Borough of Greenwich The Royal Society Cancer Research The Film Council Pfizer Diageo London Chamber of Commerce Metro Newspaper Universal Pictures Nestle London Borough of Lambeth British Gas Age Concern ICI St John's Ambulance
