The presenter’s checklist

This workshop ensures participants will know how to:

  • clarify the primary purpose of a talk

  • get to know the audience

  • make connections with the audience

  • choose 3 key messages for each particular audience

  • choose stories, anecdotes or metaphors to illustrate the messages

  • find images to illustrate key messages or feelings

  • actively involve the audience, especially at the beginning

  • offer the right follow-up information, and

  • cut the talk in half so you finish early and have time for more interaction.

Julie delivered an impressive workshop for the Kolling team, discussing the secrets to a successful presentation, where audiences are engaged and enthusiastic participants. The Bill Walsh Lab Research Director, Viive Howell said the workshop was tremendously valuable as it gave the researchers some clear guidelines to consider for their next presentation. “We are often required to speak to a group of people and the workshop provided us with a checklist for success to help us illustrate key points in memorable ways. It was an amazing experience as Julie taught us how to actively involve our audience to give an authentic and engaging presentation.
