If you are looking for a presentation training/coach here are the three things that you should look for: Relevancy, Rigidity, and Respect.

One of the best article about presentation skills
I have seen is “How to Give a Killer
Presentation”.
• Appeared in the June 2013 issue of Harvard Business Review
• Written by Chris Anderson
• Anderson is the Curator of TED
• TED talks started out in 1984
• TED stand for Technology, Entertainment, and Design
• This article outlines presentation tips with TEDTalk videos to demonstrate
If you’re looking to get motivated for an upcoming presentation, I
highly recommend you read that article!

A few years ago, The New Yorker also ran a
short profile on a gentleman invited to give a
TEDTalk.
• Published in July 2012
• Written by Nathan Heller
• The article describes the experience of Lior Zoref, an Israeli Ph.D. student
• Zoref gave his presentation more than 400 times to prepare for his TEDTalk
• He presented to his wife, his colleagues, his newborn baby, people at his commuter train stop…
• Zoref always gave the talk standing and in full voice
Basic message of the article: To get into TEDTalk presentation shape is the
same as to get into Carnegie Hall… practice, practice, practice.

Practicing with a good coach or taking a
presentation skills program is the best start to
improving.
If you’re looking for a presentation skills program or a personal coach, here is what we believe are the
minimum requirements for a quality learning experience. We call them the 3 R’s:
• Relevance
• Rigor
• Respect

5. Presentation Skills: How to Have a Great Learning Experience
Relevance
In InfoPro Learning’s experience teaching people to prepare for and give
presentations, we’ve found that participants who come to the program or coaching
session with a real presentation they will be giving soon (or just gave and want to
improve) are those who benefit the most.

Relevance
Find a program or coach where you can immediately apply skills and knowledge to
relevant work, so that you can not only leave the program having edited, tweaked,
and strengthened your presentation, but also get work down while in the training
program.

7. Presentation Skills: How to Have a Great Learning Experience
Rigor
Presentation skills coaches should be nice people with good senses of humor. After
all, you’re up in front of a group (possibly strangers if it’s an “open” program) and
giving it your all. You need advice, objective feedback, and careful coaching…

Rigor
But you also need rigor – coaching that pushes you out of your comfort zone. It’s the
only way to learn a new skill. Just like when that golf coach changes your grip on the
club. Awkward at first, then with practice it pays off.

9. Presentation Skills: How to Have a Great Learning Experience
Respect
In any learning program, skills or knowledge-based, your facilitators or coaches should
set and maintain an environment of respect. In presentation skills, it’s critical that the
environment also be safe.

10. Presentation Skills: How to Have a Great Learning Experience
Respect
The program should be seen as a lab – an environment in which you can practice, try
things out, look and feel awkward, feel safe, and have fun! The job of the coach is to
have you “try things on” and then, like a finely tailored suit, practice until the new
skills fit you and your presentation goals.

Respect
And bottom line? A good presentation skills program will capture your skills practice
on video. The video allows you to be the final judge of what works for you.

12. Presentation Skills: How to Have a Great Learning Experience
As you consider renewing or refreshing your skills
we encourage you to find a program and/or coach
that makes the most of your time together.
If have not already, please consider InfoPro Learning for your communication training needs.
And Remember, have some fun doing it!
