Considerations 4

Initial considerations - Timing
How long is the presentation? Do you have to allow for questions in that time?
How long are you expected to speak for?

• Time is a critical element as your audience will have a limited attention span

• Stick to your allotted time; to overrun is unprofessional

• Stick to 3-5 key points (objectives) to get across

• Allocate the appropriate time to each point - don’t spend a lot of time on a subject that is straightforward at the expense of a topic that is critical
