12. LOSE THE JARGON.

people can't understand
what you are talking
about.

16. Try to find or imagine the need
behind the obvious need of the
audience. My motto is to
always SAY SOMETHING NO
ONE ELSE SAYS. And that is
not easy.

18. It certainly helps to HAVE A CLEAR
"WHY". For that you have to know
two things: what is the purpose of
your presentation, and who are the
people who will participate in it.

20. Stop cramming in more information
into your presentation thinking that
you're making your presentation more
valuable to the audience. Instead,
focus your speech on ONE BIG IDEA
that moves your audience to action
and helps the audience remember and
spread your message.

24. Think of HOW YOUR PRESENTATION WILL
SERVE YOUR AUDIENCE, not the other way
around. You are on that stage to create a
teachable, memorable experience for them that
inspires. Find your common ground, bond them to
you by showing you're one of them with a story of
how you've experienced and conquered their
struggle.

26. START WITH PEN AND PAPER.
Only when you have made your ideas,
the structure of your talk, and your
words very clear, jump to PowerPoint
or your favorite tool. Never start with a
blank slide trying to bring ideas.
