Set Your Goal and Keep It Before You
Decide what it is you would like to happen as a
result of your presentation. The
four main goals of any communication are to inform, to request for an
action, to
persuade, and to build relationship.
Decide which of these goals
you are planning to achieve. Let your listeners know what you want them to
do near the beginning of your talk and again at the end.
Present your basic
idea and give them an outline of your presentation that would lead you and
your audience to the desired result.
