I find giving a presentation is toughest when the audience is mixed. Although they may all be in the presentation with a common goal, their backgrounds and experiences vary greatly, thus, I find the need to make significant changes in the presentation while in action. Yes, understanding the audience is key, but when you are giving a pre-developed company presentation that is required to be given to each and every group at a prescribed time in their process, the task becomes more difficult. Being able to offer personal experiences with examples is usually my back up for success. This offers participants with no knowledge on the topic useful incite while allowing the experienced to relate directly. I loved this module and gained some very useful information, guidance and direction. The skills tools will be invaluable as a template in developing, designing and executing my future presentations.
