What is worse than someone reading PowerPoint slides to an audience?
Someone who also never looks at the audience.
If you are giving a PowerPoint presentation, it is very easy to become glued to your slides–and to stay looking at your slides even when what you are saying is not there! Here are three tips for avoiding that dilemma.
Be Aware of Your Toes
Sounds silly, but it is true that if your toes are pointed at the screen, you will definitely wind up reading the screen and losing your audience. However, when your toes are pointed toward the audience, or are catty-corner to the audience, that position will serve you well in two ways. First,it allows you to glance at the screen for your information. Second, because your bodys want to turn in the direction of your toes, you will naturally find yourself turning from the slides to look at your audience.
