Giving presentations

This is a video produced by a presentation training company as an example of how NOT to make a Powerpoint presentation.



What is the first mistake he makes?
  • He comes unprepared.
  • He stands in front of the screen.
  • He doesn't say hello.

What should he have done before the talk?
  • Checked the sound and equipment.
  • Said hello
  • Put on his best suit
Here's a list of the errors our presenter makes you can watch for:
  • Clothing (tie, jeans, shirt untucked)
  • Supplies crash to floor
  • Strange microphone "test"
  • Throwing pencils?
  • Poor content
  • Bad slide preparation
  • Singing?!
  • Table crash
What else did you find?
