Avoid the temptation of using bullet points to do this – they just look so dull!
The more information presented, the more cluttered and less appealing a slide looks. If you have large data sets, think about the key points that you really want to be remembered and then show them in plain, simple terms. To make your slides as attractive and memorable as possible, try to boil down the information to an absolute minimum. It may seem obvious, but it’s worth repeating: too much information is an instant turn-off! Keeping this in mind during the planning phase of a presentation vastly increases your chances of delivering a presentation that really ‘works’. Remember that a primary function of visuals is not to simply display information, but to make sure information is received by the audience. Presenters often fail to understand the visual aids that they use and, crucially, how these will be received by their audience. Equally most of us can point to presentations we’ve attended that have really ‘worked’. We’ve all had to sit through dull presentations that would be better suited to curing insomnia than maintaining an audience’s interest. Think! Are my Visuals Attention-Grabbers? In the wider population, it has been proven that a combination of verbal and visual information is by far the most effective way to ensure information is remembered.Īrmed with this knowledge, you can use a variety of techniques to visualise your data, process or arguments to deliver more effective presentations.ġ.
