Using Visuals in a Presentation

Rosa: Thanks a lot for offering to give me some Pointers on how to use Visuals for my presentation. I’ve never given a presentation like this before.

Milo: I’m glad I can help. What do you plan to use?

Rosa: Well, I plan to show these Slides for the first part of the talk. First, I have this Pie chart that shows the types of services our company provides. Then, I have this Bar graph to show how the company has grown in the past 20 years. But, I’m not really sure how to talk about them.

Milo: Okay, first, when you’re using a chart, make sure you explain what each part Represents. For example, on this pie chart, I would explain that each Slice of the pie represents a percentage of the business. Then, for this bar chart, I’d make sure to tell the audience what the X-axis and Y-axis stand for, and what each Increment represents. That way, the Trend that the company is following is clear. Are you planning on using this Line chart, too?

Rosa: No, I Changed my mind about that. I think it’s a little confusing, but your tips on the other charts are really helpful. I have this Flip chart, too, that I’m supposed to use but I’m not sure how. I don’t want to Turn my back on the audience during the presentation.

Milo: The second half of the presentation includes some Audience participation, right? Then, I think it’s fine to use it during that part of the talk. Any other questions?

Rosa: I don’t think so. You’ve been so helpful. I hope you’ll let me take you to lunch as a Token of thanks.

Milo: You don’t need To treat, but I’d be happy to have lunch together. Let’s go.
