As communications theorist Marshall McLuhan famously said, “The medium is the messenger,” a cogent reminder that it’s not just what you say, but how you say it. Generally, the way a corporate presentation is delivered and by whom is just as important as the content of the presentation. This means careful planning to ensure that the message and all the key elements align with the brand. Moreover, corporate credentials matter. Informative, inspiring, motivating content may seem stale if the presenter lacks credibility.
It is important that the objectives and goals for the event are established. Clear objectives help to select the presentation design and format best suited for both the content and the audience. Ensure that you include entertaining material and that presenters maintain the right pace for the presentation to avoid audience withdrawal. Keep your audience engaged by encouraging their participation and incorporating visual elements that reinforce the messages. A presentation is not meant to be a sedative.
A presentation, since it is a more formal method of delivery, must dispense with some of the license we tend to enjoy in conversation. It must avoid meandering and be more structured and to the point. Its layout should set the framework for a logical progression of the material. In addition, a presentation, being essentially one-sided, will not be fueled by the feedback of another party. It must generate its own energy through the use of proven rhetorical devices.
