Part 1: What Makes for a Good or a Bad Presentation?

Hey welcome back, let's start this series with a question. What makes
for a good or bad presentation? Now this makes for a really serious
question. A question I want you to focus on, slowly, really, focus on this
question. Don't rush through this. What makes for a good or bad
presentation?

Now, for me, what makes for a good presentation is kind of simple:

1. its conversational

2. it's entertaining

3. It's interactive

4. I like the presenter

So, what makes for a bad presentation is also fairly simple:

1. It's boring

2. Not interactive

3. I don't like the presenter

So, looking at that criteria we could say that what makes a good or bad
presentation is you. It's how you act, it's your body language, it's how
you talk, it's how you project yourself, it's your charisma or lack of
charisma. It's your tone, your voice, your movements. Are you moving?
Or are you just staying in the one place? Are you interactiong? Or are
you just talking to an audience? One way, only one direction. So before
you continue with this course, this is a really, really important question:
what makes for a good or bad presentation? Seriously ask yourself that
question because if you were to attend a presentation today, delivered
by someone else, say for example a 40 minute presentation, you would
for sure have expectations of your own. You would most likely know
what would make a good or bad presentation, without having to be
told, you would feel it. Regardless of the topic. What makes for a good
or bad presentation? That's what we are going to focus on. There are a
few more ingredients, and I would call them the magic ingredients and I
will show you these in the next video. But for the moment seriously ask
yourself, what makes for a good or bad presentation?
