      Hello thank you for your video. I was wondering is there a complete video of the presentation "R&D insentives staff scheme" ? Where we can find it?

    At first I thought 7 minutes is way too long, but after watching this every second had me captivated!!

    Best way to open a presentation: "I'm going to make this quick."

      I always snapped them wide awake by asking for a show of hands if they'd ever indulged in Group Sex...? Nobody ever walked out, nobody ever complained, they just sat there laughing, and the women laughed the loudest. It had nothing to do with the speech, but I got their attention...

    I once went to a great technical presentation, which was supposed to last 45 minutes. The presenter opened by saying:
    "If all you want is the end result and not how to get there, I will start with that and it will take less than five minutes. If that's all you need, feel free to leave after that."
    Then, "If you want a more specific discussion on how to get that result, the roadmap, if you will, I will be done in ten minutes. After that, you may leave."
    Then, "If you're a technical person, I will walk you through the details, which will take twenty minutes, all-in. After that you may leave.
    Finally, "After twenty minutes, assuming anyone is left, I have set aside the remaining twenty-five minutes for us to chat and to answer any questions you may have."
    The Execs left after 5 minutes, General Management after 10, and the rest of us stayed so we could more fully understand the new technology. No one's time was wasted, and the appropriate parties got the information appropriate for their needs.

      Blame the Greek philosophers who always present ideas and defend it to their peers. (I think that's where it started the presentation).

    It depends on many factors: presentation topic, audience, setting, program objectives. The first line of any speaking program is best when it gets an audience's attention without distracting from the coming program. The closing is best when it anchors the results. There are more than 180 video clips on my CZcams channel addressing various public speaking techniques and methods.
