Make Your Presentations More Interactive

Engaging with a crowd when giving a presentation is the best way to keep them focused, attentive, and interested in the content you’re discussing. Here are some helpful ways to make your presentations more interactive and memorable:

Use an Icebreaker

Icebreakers are a fantastic way to warm people up and make them feel comfortable (including the presenter!). These can be thought-provoking ice breakers or they can be more light-hearted. Consider the subject of your presentation and choose one that makes the most sense.

Ask Questions

Presentations aren’t always about the audience listening to the presenter. A great way to make the experience more interactive is to bring some dialogue into it. Throughout various points of the presentation, ask the audience some questions. This will keep them on their toes, attentive, and invested in what you’re saying.

Add Visuals and Audio

An engaging presentation is great, but when you include striking visuals and audio, the experience becomes more memorable. While music can be a great way to evoke emotion and resonate with the audience, visuals can help to bring an audience back to the slides. When the two are combined, it makes the perfect recipe for an interactive and engaging presentation.

Make it Personal

While each presentation is different, people are more likely to resonate with a speaker who seems authentic and comfortable on the stage. A great way to do this is to start the presentation with a short personal anecdote or story. This will give your audience an opportunity to “get to know you” before you dive into the rest of the presentation, making them feel more invested in what you have to say.
