Last night I was at a meeting of a professional body. The speaker gave a presentation using an overhead projector linked to a PC.
The speaker was clearly confident in giving presentations to his peer group. The overheads were mainly black text on white. He proceeded at a rapid pace. One overhead might have a heading and a line of text, the next another point under the same heading.
Half way through the presentation he said "You don't need to take notes, the slides will be available on the website".
At one point he looked at the screen and said "I didn't mean to concentrate so much on ***".
After the meeting, I heard a few people say "A lot of that went straight over my head".
What do you think the speaker could have done to improve the presentation?
