  • Great presentations start with the key message
    Mar 9 2024
    It may sound like weird advice, but a great presentation actually starts with the end. The end of a talk usually is the conclusion or take-home message. By sharing that part already at the start, you are able to create a comprehensible narrative for your audience. In this episode, you will experience the difference it makes. Additionally, you will acquire a specific technique for crafting an effective opening, which can be applied to written communication as well. Not only does this method enhance comprehensibility and logical flow, but it also streamlines the preparation process, ultimately saving you valuable time when preparing a talk.
