"OPEN UP!" presentation acronym
OPEN UP!
O for Organized
P for Passionate
E for Engaged
N for Natural
U for Understand your audience
P for Practice!
This is another handy checklist in acronym form. Remember to consider what each of the words/phrases means to you — how you “do” each one in your unique way.
You can use the checklist as you prepare, and just before presenting to help you relax and focus.
The "OPEN UP!" presentation acronym was created by Tim Koegel, author of the book The Exceptional Presenter. I use this book and recommend it highly if you want to go deeper with your presentation skills development.
