How to Give a Killer Presentation by Chris Anderson.
As the curator of the TED conference since 2002, Chris is no stranger to great presentations!
In How to Give a Killer Presentation (viewing is free but requires registration), he gives a synopsis of what to do and just as importantly, what not to do for a “killer” presentation.
Whether you are presenting a paper on topic maps at a conference, making a presentation to a class or to a small group of decision makers, you will benefit from the advice that Chris has in this article.
None of the advice is new but compare the conference presentations you have seen to any good TED talk. See what I mean?
Don’t neglect Chris’ advice if you are preparing videos. Keeping an audience engaged is even harder when a presentation isn’t “live.”
I first saw this at: How to give a killer talk by Chris Crockett. That is a post at an astronomy blog trying to improve presentations at astronomy conferences.
The concerns of topic mappers may seem unique to us but for the most part, they are shared across disciplines.
