Everybody wants to be a better communicator. Whether you are standing up delivering a speech or leading a meeting, it is important that you are effectively presenting your material.
Below, are 7 key items that all great communicators take in consideration before they engage with their audience:
 | I will not waste your time. | |
 | I know who you are and I know why you came. | |
 | I am well organized. | |
 | I will deliver this speech in an interesting, conversational way. | |
 | I know my subject. | |
 | Here are my most important points. | |
 | I am finished. |
What say you? Is there anything missing from the list? Would you add anything?
A suggestion might be to print this out, and use it while preparing for your next presentation.
The above list was compiled from the book, "How to Give a Terrific Presentation" by Karen Kalish (AMACOM, 1996).
