歡迎回到 技能 360for today’s lesson on how to connect with your audience during a presentation.
You’ve probably heard all sorts of advice about delivering a good介紹. But at the end of the day, every single presentation strategy is designed for one thing: connecting with the audience. 實際上, if you don’t connect with your audience, you might as well pack up your PowerPoint and head home. You need to build a bridge to send your message across. No bridge, no message. And don’t think you need to be an easy-going extrovert to connect with an audience. This is something that you can learn to do well.
歡迎回到 商務英語播客for today’s lesson on delivering an engaging and organized presentation.
Getting up in front of a room full of people to give a英文演講can be a difficult task. Whether you’re reporting information or trying to convince people to buy something, you need to catch their attention. Then you need to keep it. And at the end of it all, you want them to walk away feeling like they learned something, 或者他們同意你的觀點, or they want to buy what you’re trying to sell them.
當然, it might seem difficult, but there are skills you can learn to make it much easier. Several techniques in both presentation and delivery can help ensure an engaging英文介紹that will wow your listeners.
在今天的課程中, we’ll take a closer look at some of these techniques, including asking people to imagine a situation in order to persuade them, and focusing on the “why” behind your ideas rather than the “what.” We’ll also learn how you can use a single thread throughout your presentation and how you can transition between ideas. And finally we’ll cover how to check in with your listeners and add emphasis.
