PAGE 1/8 MR3 - My Research in 3 minutes Below are some questions that remind you how to succesfully face the challenge :
1. |
Why do I make this presentation? What is the real objective of this "exercise"? |
2. |
What are the essential ideas, works, achievements I want to present? What do I expect my audience will remember from my speech? |
3. |
How can I bring my public into my world? A so complex world? How can I make it interested and curious about my work? And how can I keep it listening to me till the end? |
4. |
How can I format my speech for being intelligible and accessible for my audience, which can be so diverse? |
As suggested by the Heath brothers in their book "Made to stick", the answer is: Tell a Simple, Unexpected, Concrete, Credible and Emotional Story. That's the SUCCESs way to do so ! Use the "almost nothing" given to you for doing that : - YOU : Your intonation, your rhythm, your body language, your movements - Your BACKGROUND (picture, poster, slides) : the support it gives to your talk, the interest it sparks, the attention it brings (back) - Your AUDIENCE (the public) : its sight, hearing, emotions |
