Giving Presentations

Scope

Covers

• Turning a goal + audience into a clear talk objective and ask
• Building a persuasive narrative using contrast (“what is” vs “what could be”)
• Producing a slide/talk-track plan that is easy to deliver under time pressure
• De-risking high-stakes talks via role-play, Q&A prep, and pre-briefs
• Rehearsing for confidence (including visualization + record/review)
• Delivery mechanics for in-person and Zoom (presence, pauses, looking up to think)

When to use

• “Create an outline and talk track for my all-hands update.”
• “Help me turn this doc into a 10-minute exec presentation with a clear ask.”
• “I need a deck structure for a keynote / conference talk.”
• “Prep me for Q&A and objections for a high-stakes review.”
• “Build a rehearsal plan so I can deliver confidently.”
