| Review: | Engineers and technical professionals are often called on to make presentations at meetings, briefings, discussions, demonstrations, or at educational and training courses. This book gives a systematic approach to planning and delivering your presentation. The first part of the book concentrates on technical presentation skills, such as analysing your audience, physically arranging the seating and floor plan, choosing presentation strategies (illustrated presentations, technical demonstrations, brainstorming, case studies, role plays, discussions, and team presentations), preparing notes, using presentation media (video, computer output, flip charts etc.), and introducing and delivering your presentation. The second part of the book helps hone these skills and takes a deeper look at, amongst others, technical demonstrations, leading discussions, making team presentations, and, finally, evaluating your presentations. |
