时间：2018-12-05 作者：英语课 分类：商务英语演讲课
Welcome back Business Skills 360 – the podcast that looks at the other side of Business English. This is the second part of our series on effective presentations. Last week, we talked about keeping it short, simple, engaging, and real. Much of that happens in the preparation. Today, we’re going to talk about what happens when you stand up in front of that audience and have to start speaking.
Your first goal should be to make a connection with each and every listener. That connection is the pathway along which your message travels. If you have a good connection, there’s a good chance your message will sink in. To make this connection, you have to do two things: you need to control the audience’s attention and you need to engage their minds. And to do these two things, you have three tools: your voice, your props 1 such as PowerPoint – and your body or movement.
