Have you ever worked very hard to develop and deliver a presentation or poster session, only to have the sense that your audience wasn't paying attention? Or worse, giving your work a poor grade!

Do any of these sound familiar?

• Words, words, words -- all over the slide?
• Graphics and images that are too immature or inappropriate? Or don't reflect your message?
• Reading the words on the screen to your audience?
• Looking at the screen instead of at the audience?
• Failing to provide the audience with a map of where the presentation is going?

From this list it is easy to see how a well-researched and prepared presentation can fail! Don't worry - many presenters make these easy-to-correct presentation mishaps. See Presenting Without A Net: If You Want People to Listen to You, You Have to Stop Reading to Them.
