The countdown is on for the much anticipated Ignite Sydney 4 event, being held here in Sydney at Oxford Art Factory on Tuesday 2nd March. This is part of the bigger ‘Global Ignite Week’ event where 40+ cities around the globe each host their own Ignite event at the same time.
We are big supporters of Ignite, as a showcase and celebration of a series of short presentations delivered by a range of speakers on ……… whatever! The format: each presenter has 5 minutes to present 20 slides which are set on a 15 second automatic transitions on a topic of their choice. These simple yet effective parameters force speakers to consider their core message and wrap it up into a punchy, succinct and often entertaining pack – the way a lot of presentations should be!
We are now seeing large corporates adopt similar styles for their speakers at conferences and internal team days as way to encourage creativity, refine content and inject a bit of entertainment into what can be tediously long days.
Here’s some quick tips to help you create a short and snappy presentation:
- Know your audience – this will help you shape your presentation
- Organise your key messages on paper before you even open PowerPoint
- Choose powerful and relevant images that help the audience understand your message
- Rehearse, rehearse and rehearse! – if you know your content, the rest comes naturally
See you at Ignite!
