Speaking about Presenting

JULY 26, 2010

In my last post on presentation handouts I suggested that it’s best to distribute your handout before your presentation. The comments to that post identified three situations when it makes sense to distribute your handout after the presentation. Have you got another good reason for distributing handouts after the presentation? As not everyone wades through comments I’ve decided to highlight them in this post: 1. Surprise. Mike Slater.

To make it easier, I used a feature that is one of the subjects of today's tip - the distribute feature. Aligning, having multiple objects lined up at the top, bottom or along one side, and distributing, having multiple objects evenly placed either horizontally or vertically are two important tasks that are hard to do by hand. Fortunately for all of us, PowerPoint has two features, the align and distribute features that automatically do this for us.

  By the end of this month, petfoodstamps.org will be distributing free pet food to those on public assistance, reports CBS in Dallas, Texas.  Low-income families will no longer have to choose between feeding the humans or the animal companions.    That will prevent the brutal necessity of surrendering the four-legged members of the family to a shelter because there is no money to feed them.    Currently food stamp laws prohibit spending on pet food.

More and more presentations or handouts are being distributed in PDF format so that they can be viewed on any system and look the same. One great advantage to creating a distributable version of your presentation in PDF format is that you can combine a printout of your slides with other documents that are in PDF format. When you have to distribute your presentation, use these ideas to create a PDF version of your presentation that is much more than just a slide printout.

What kind to give out, what you should include in them, when to distribute them, and even if you should have them at all are all major points of discussion. Handouts are a hotly debated topic in the presentation world. While the catchall answer to these questions is “it depends on the nature and subject of your presentation”, that doesn’t provide you with much guidance when planning your handout.…

In PowerPoint 2003, click Draw> Align or Distribute on the Drawing toolbar.). In the Arrange group, click Align, then Distribute Vertical (in this situation) or Distribute Horizontal. When you can make objects equidistant while you are moving them into place instead of having to separately select them and apply the Distribute feature, you save time. A common task is to space objects equidistant from each other.

Distribute horizontally or vertically. On the Format tab, click Align in the Arrange group and then choose Distribute Horizontally or Distribute Vertically, depending on your needs. Any time you have 3 or more similar objects on a slide, you may want to make them equidistant. PowerPoint offers 3 separate ways to create equidistant objects. Duplicate, place, duplicate.

Distribute the handout at the beginning of your presentation. Some people are concerned that if they distribute the handout first, people will stop listening and start leafing through it. Not distributing it till after the presentation suggests that you think you know best how people should pay attention to your information. Your presentation handout is the lasting concrete manifestation of your presentation.

Make eye contact when you are listening to the questioner, but during your answer, distribute your eye contact throughout the audience. Most presentations benefit from a question-and-answer session (Q&A). Audience members appreciate this time to get clarification, share comments or ideas, and get deeper information on key concepts. However, because the Q&A feels less formal than the main presentation, many speakers neglect to prepare for this time.
