SCORE COMMENT
Your presentations are probably quite weak, and perhaps a little boring. There are lots of ways to bring more excitement
to what, and how, you present. You simply need more practice developing the right kind of content, and learning to use
14-32 your nervousness to create a positive flow of energy.
Your presentations are OK, and they're probably very typical of average presenters. The impression you leave isn't good
or bad – it's essentially nonexistent, and your message is likely soon forgotten.
33-51
Super job! You're giving excellent presentations. They're interesting and well suited to the audience, and you know that
taking time to prepare pays off in the end.

FORMULATE
YOUR
OBJECTIVES
• Formulate a precise objective - form of a
simple, concise statement of intent.
• For example, the purpose of your speech
may be to obtain funds, to evaluate a
proposal, or to motivate your team.
• Isolate the essential objective and list at
most two others which can be addressed
providing they do not distract from the
main one.
• If you do not focus upon your objective,
it is unlikely that the audience will.

RESEARCH
YOUR
AUDIENCE
• It is the simplest and most effective manner
of obtaining their attention at the beginning.
• If your opening remarks imply that you
understand their problem and that you have a
solution, then they will be flattered at your
attention and attentive to your every word.
• For instance, if you are seeking approval for a
new product plan from senior management it
is useful to know and understand their main
objectives.
• If they are currently worried that their product
range is out of date and old fashioned, you would
emphasize the innovative aspects of your new
product;
• if they are fearful about product diversification
you would then emphasize how well your new 10
product fits within the existing catalogue.

STRUCTURE
• If you do not order your thoughts into
a structured manner, the audience
will not be able to follow them.
• Having established the aim of your
presentation you should choose the
most appropriate structure to achieve
it.
• However, the structure must not get
in the way of the main message.
• Do not make it too complex

should be easy to follow and
understand
don’t clutter it up with too many
KISS MODEL:
words or examples to make the
listeners confused at the end.
Keep it short and simple
when you speak, be very clear and
concise in your message.
do not give indirect references or
beat around the bush.
remember that you have the
responsibility of all the people in
the meeting to perform at their
best after the meeting winds up.
The presentation must give some
point to everyone to take home 25
and put to practice.
CSP Model (Challenge, Solution,
Progress)
CSP Model (Challenge, Solution, Progress)
Every presentation needs structure, but it’s easy to
forget that we need to guide our audience.
You need to explain:
the challenge or goal
explain what the solution to the challenge is (or how to
achieve the goal),
show where you are in the steps to completing that goal.
