It was one of the most memorable presentation thus far
as it was the first time donning a blazer for a presentation. My confidence was
breaming from the overall image portrayed due to the formal attire paired with
a blazer, definitely a feeling to remember.
Overall, I felt that the delivery was smooth. I have stage
fright, and a very severe one. But I always manage to hide this fear under my
sleeves and proceed to deliver my presentation. This time was no exception. I
felt that through constant interaction and exposure to more people, my ability
to speak in front of others has dramatically increased.
I was responsible for the
opening for my group’s presentation, and that gave me tremendous stress. A
fluent yet impactful opening was critical in setting the pace for the remaining
presentation. I thought of an attention grabber which would capture the
audience attention while addressing the problem that our group was tackling. It
was a success! However, the attention grabber was inappropriate due to the
setting of the presentation which I had overlooked, and could have been done
better should more thought been put into it; a point to take note of for future
presentations.
One aspect of the
presentation that I disliked was the PowerPoint slides design. I felt that it could
have been done better. I am not
proficient in using Microsoft PowerPoint, and spend a lot more time to develop
a simple PowerPoint with simple slide designs and animations. I look to improve
my proficiency through online tutorials which are readily available.
To conclude, I felt that the skills taught to me have been well applied thus producing an excellent presentation. These skills would prove useful in future presentations and I look to sharpen these skills whenever possible.
