End with the Key Message

Ending with the main point provides a natural conclusion to your introduction and summarises what the audience should expect from your talk. Every presentation has a key point. The challenge is to identify it and deliver it effectively.25

State the Purpose

Communicating the purpose of the talk shows the audience that you are clear about what you want to achieve. It encourages your audience to listen actively to see whether you meet your goal. If you are unsure of the purpose, ask yourself: Why is my presentation relevant? Why should my audience listen?

Clearly introduce yourself and your topic

Introducing yourself at the beginning of the presentation helps you to connect with your audience from the start. Clearly stating your topic gives everyone a clear idea of what to expect so they’re ready to follow along with you as you present.

Agree on your outline

This is where you share the structure of your talk. When people know what’s coming, it’s easier for them to focus and make connections between your points. Including an outline also shows your marker that you have thought about the contents of your presentation. You can use it to check that you have included everything requested in the brief.
