Training manual sample
Below are some extracts from our Technical Presentation Skills manual.
Adapting presentations to fit a technical
environment data and audience
Adapting a presentation to a technical audience
and presenting technical data can require careful consideration of the audience
(for example their expertise, interests, and expectations), especially as
technical audiences are often used to a 1 way flow of information format
delivery (where information is given, without the need to reflect or feedback),
rather than a standard presentation 2 way style of delivery.
Key strategies that can be employed to help
the effectiveness can be;
1. Know Your Audience
Understand Their Expertise: Assess the
technical knowledge and experience level of your audience. Tailor the depth of
content accordingly.
Identify Their Interests: Know ‘Whats in it
for them’. Focus on topics and data that
are relevant to their work and interests.
Consider Their Expectations: Know what the
audience expects to gain from your presentation, such as insights, solutions,
or detailed analysis. Let them know the
format of delivery, ie that it will be reflective and may involve more participation
than they are used to.
2. Structure Your Presentation
Clear Outline: Start with a clear outline
of what you will cover. Include an introduction, main points, and a conclusion.
Logical Flow: Ensure a logical progression
of ideas. Use a sequential flow to present data and concepts, making it easy
for the audience to follow.
Signposting: Use clear signposts throughout
the presentation to indicate transitions between sections or topics.
3. Present Technical Data Effectively
Visual Aids: Use graphs, charts, and
diagrams to represent complex data visually. Ensure they are clear, well-labelled,
and not overly cluttered.
Simplify Complex Data: While technical
audiences generally like detail, make sure it is relevant. Break down complex data into simpler
components. Explain each part before integrating them into a larger context.
Highlight Key Points: Use highlights, bold
text, or colour to emphasise important data points and trends.
