The Presentation Skills Checklist

from Fearless Presentations · host Doug Staneart

On today's episode, I'm going to give you a presentation skills checklist that can make designing and delivering a presentation easier and less risky. When folks go through our presentation skills classes, they are often surprised at how simple public speaking really is. That is if you have a great structure and follow a simple checklist.Before pilots take a plane off the ground, they always follow a written checklist. They don’t follow this process by memory. Instead, they check off each task one by one.There is a reason why every pilot does this. The process takes a tremendous amount of risk out of the equation. The checklist also takes something very complex and makes it very simple.Great presenters do the same thing. If you follow a simple presentation checklist, you make delivering the presentation less risky.In my classes, I teach students how to design an entire presentation, from start to finish, in fifteen minutes or less. These class members are often shocked at how fast they can design their presentations. They finish in minutes what would have typically taken hours (or weeks) to complete.On this episode, I cover a simple presentation checklist that you can use when you design PowerPoint presentations. It will help you shorten your preparation time and also reduce your fear of public speaking.Then, in the next few weeks, we'll go into each step in a little more detail.Show Notes: Presentation Skills Checklist(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/checklist-presentation-skills/)
