the honor of being able to help numerous professionals land their dream job
offers and if this is something that you're interested in working with me one
on one I can give you details about that at the end of this video so you have a
presentation that you have to deliver soon at work and you're wondering how do
you prepare for it so that you can deliver it with confidence and do a good
job well not to worry I'll walk you through my clear strategy on what you
need to do before and during the presentation so that you can deliver it
in a confident way so before the presentation you need to do two things
step one is to understand the purpose of what you're meant to do this may seem
obvious but if you don't actually understand the purpose of what you're
presenting and what you're going to be delivering then you're not going to be
delivering a very good presentation so make sure you're very clear on the
purpose of this presentation and if you're not clear ask the people who you
need to talk to that will help you to get clear whether it's your manager your
boss your co-workers to ensure that you deliver the presentation in a way that's
to the point and that is specific to the purpose step two is to read or analyze
the case project or assignment carefully by considering the facts and details
you're given this obviously ties hand-in-hand with step one which is to
understand the purpose but you need to fully go through the details of the
assignment of the case study the project whatever it is and make sure that you're
taking into account the most relevant details the most relevant facts and use
that as part of your analysis without considering all the different details
and facts available you will be showcasing a very narrow presentation
that perhaps maybe even just one-sided or biased and that's not going to
reflect well on you as a professional so you want to make sure that you consider
all the facts that are available to you all right now once you've done those two
first two steps before the presentation now
that you're getting to prepare the presentation you want to follow through
on these next five steps step one is to reiterate the purpose of the assignment
remind the audience as to the overall purpose of the case study the project
the assignment that you've worked on and the goal that you were trying to achieve
this helps your audience who is likely a mixture of different types of
individuals at different levels and have different positions all get onto the
same page when you can reiterate the purpose of the assignment the purpose of
what you're going to present it helps everyone to stay focused and know what
you're going to talk about step number two and do a good presentation is to
state your unique assumptions and factors that needed to be considered in
your analysis in situations where you notice that there were important
assumptions data facts details that needed to be considered and weren't
originally considered it's good to articulate and mention them here right
in the presentation because it gives the audience comfort that you did a thorough
analysis and it helps them to understand that you were able to take into account
concepts and facts and details that they didn't originally think of so it gives
the audience comfort in your ability to analyze and it's actually setting the
stage for how they're gonna feel about you as you continue the presentation
step number three briefly describe the types of analysis you performed now you
don't want to bore your audience with all the details of all the different
types of analysis you did instead you just want to name the different types of
analysis that you performed and the purpose as to what each type of analysis
was meant to achieve this helps the audience to understand the different
types of analysis that you performed and also allows them the ability to
visualize the work that you did so if your analysis involved charts and graphs
you definitely want to include the images on the presentation slides don't
clutter them up with too many analysis at the same time just one per slide is
good enough step four is then to clearly state your results and the impact on the
company or team once you've described your analysis now
can talk about your findings but again be clear and succinct what it means to
the team what it means to the company overall and
finally step five is to state your recommendation the key to closing your
presentation well is to offer a recommendation based on your analysis
based on the results that you found and understanding of how that's going to
impact the team and the company what would your recommended solution be you
want to state it clearly you want to state it confidently and that's how
you're going to end off your presentation so there you have it those
are my key steps and strategy on how to structure your presentation whether it's
in front of a potential employer or already at your work in a group meeting
