Once you have identified the purpose of your talk, the next step is to generate bullet points of your ideas. This helps in organizing your thoughts and creating a clear and concise structure for your presentation.
Show Your Heart
Expose yourself to the audience by sharing personal stories. This builds trust and relatability. Identify the most important points in your talk and keep them thematically related.
Keep It Simple
Ensure your bullet points are concise and to the point. Each point should be like a headline, not a sentence, making it easy for the audience to follow.
Clarify Your Points
Bullet points are meant for brevity and promise. They give the audience an overview of what you are going to cover, setting clear expectations.
Focus on Audience Needs
Use inclusive pronouns like “we” and “our” to make the audience feel seen and important. This fosters a sense of unity and engagement.
Engage the Five Senses
Incorporate evocative images, music or sound effects, and stories that involve taste, smell, and touch. Engaging multiple senses helps in creating a memorable and immersive experience for the audience.
By generating clear and concise bullet points, you can structure your talk effectively, making it easier for the audience to follow and retain your message.
