Presentation Skills

 Over 30 million presentations happen every day.


Want to present like the top 1%?


Here are 9 lessons from Steve Jobs:


1. SHOW YOUR PASSION


Use simple language and get your audience excited.


2. ONE-SENTENCE SUMMARY


Create "twitter-friendly" headlines that capture your main message.


3. THE "THREE" RULE


Stick to three key points for clarity and impact.


4. BRING IN A VILLAIN


Every story needs a villain to highlight the hero - show why your product matters.


5. SIMPLE, VISUAL SLIDES


Keep slides clean - less is more. Jobs’ first slide had just 19 words!


6. INTRODUCE THE HERO


After the villain, present the hero - give your audience a reason to care.


7. DON'T READ NOTES


Present from memory to show confidence and connection.


8. TELL STORIES


Share quick stories about how the product came to be or its impact on you.


9. PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE


Rehearse a lot to boost your confidence.


Great presentation skills are crucial for success in life and work.


Follow these 9 lessons, and you'll be unstoppable!
