PUNCH
I gave a mini-lecture on beginning your presentation well with PUNCH. Read more about PUNCH at the blog link below.

Presentation Zen – Start your presentation with PUNCH

You can also see the slides again with the slideshow below.

Presentation punch from Daniel Beck

In addition to the focus point for each point of your conclusion, I suggest a final focus point. You can introduce your final focus point with these words …

If you only remember one thing from my presentation, please remember that …

After that, show your title slide and finish with Thank you! (do not say "I'm finished.").

This is a powerful way to end your conclusion.


Next Lesson (1/15)
Next week some of you will give your final speech. Everyone should be ready.

Remember:

• Do not write sentences on slides
• Use keywords or images
• You cannot use notes
• Memorize your final sentence and practice it many times

Continue building your Final Speech. Practice, practice, practice. Practice makes perfect.
