While i was working at Comex then, i used to have this senior who told me, "Presenting something is easy, all you have to do is to look at him, and tell him in the eye that he, cannot live without your product. You will find power in convincing him through knowing explicitly what you are pushing out to him."
With this mind-set, I presented my Car Park Solutions last Friday. Things did not go particularly well. I find myself constantly making errors when presenting certain points, and some points are not clearly explained, leading to an exciting round of Question and Answer session.
My presentation, apparently was seemingly interactive, attire was adequate appropriate and tone and speed was reasonable. However, I did show certain level of stage fear and lack of concentration when I made that few errors. I realised that I did not made full use of the slides as I was going faster than the slides, which would probably confuse my audiences. I too, appeared restless near the end of the presentation, which resulted in points mispronounce and some others, skipped. The language I used had some minor problems too as it was not proper English and had bad grammatical errors, resulting in the presentation being less convincing. My hand gestures did not aid very well to bring out my ideas.
I shall strive never to commit these mistakes again.
