Be Professional, Passionate, Proud and Prepared• This is YOUR talk – OWN it, LOVE it, ENJOY it• No one in the room KNOWS this like you –

remember that as you walk on stage• Stand TALL, Speak CLEARLY, Speak UP• Deliver a PACED and measured talk – don’t

rush• And remember, it’s OK to be nervous!

Focus your AIM - What is your message?

• Time is of the essence. Have a clear aim for your talk – say what that is upfront

• Develop your key messages–Keep your messages clear and concise– Tell a story: Introduction, Information,

conclusions/recommendations, summary• Don’t reproduce your entire paper – refer the

audience to it for the detail

Timing Tips

• Match your presentation to the time available. 20 minutes:– 1-2 minute on the INTRODUCTION– 10-12 minutes on the KEY INFORMATION– 2 to 3 minutes on the CONCLUSIONS and

RECOMMENDATONS– 1 to 2 minutes on the SUMMARY and

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Engage your Audience

• TALK to the audience, not the back wall. Eye contact enhances your message

• USE the microphone with INTENT – speak INTO it and don’t turn away when talking

• Embrace your own talking style (be FUNNY if it works for you), but don’t let your style detract from your talk

• Don’t apologise!

take on constructive comments• FINESSE the talk and your style • PRACTICE it more!• PREPARE for potential questions

Examples of things that could go wrong

Page 10: Be Professional,  Passionate, Proud and Prepared

For additional assistance with presenting your technical paper please contact the AusIMM on 03 9658 6120 or [email protected]

Things that go wrong:Too many slides

• A good rule of thumb is 1 to 1.25 slides per minute – so for a 15 minute talk, if you have more than 20 slides – TOO MANY!

• If your presentation has more than this, reduce slides by focusing content to the key messages – not by increasing the detail on each slide by reducing the font size!

Things that go wrong:Too much text on a slide

Page 12: Be Professional,  Passionate, Proud and Prepared

For additional assistance with presenting your technical paper please contact the AusIMM on 03 9658 6120 or [email protected]

Things that go wrong – Special effects that detract

from your talk

• Visual bombardment by using too many different effects to introduce text, tables and figures

• Audio bombardment by using too many and/or unnecessary sound effects

Page 13: Be Professional,  Passionate, Proud and Prepared

For additional assistance with presenting your technical paper please contact the AusIMM on 03 9658 6120 or [email protected]

Things that go wrong – Effects
