The presenter should organize their content properly that is they should first give a brief description of what the topic is all about or what they are proposing and then continue to give the details.

2.       Manners
The general manners of the presenter are always considered. Being friendly but still being able to maintain the formal environment is very crucial.
3.       Know the place
Knowing the environment in which one is required to present is very important. One should know the audience in front of whom they are supposed to present. In small conferences the small efforts of knowing everyone in the room help the presenter gain a few impressed looks.
4.       Handouts
Handouts seem like a very tiresome and extra job and many a times people fail to read the handouts as well; but giving out some handouts is crucial in its own way. The handouts help the listener recap what they had seen and understood in the conference later.
5.       Speaking
In a conference the presenter is the only one speaking. Having a loud and clear voice will help the presenter showcase their idea properly to each person present in the conference room. Speaking every point twice also helps in making the listeners understand what the presenter wants to convey.
6.       Handling questions
Being truthful is very important when questions are asked. If the presenter is not able to answer the questions it is fine if they do not waste time trying to answer the question wrongly. The presenter must be clear about the topic that they are presenting and should answer every question with a proper answer that shall help the listener understand everything. Always welcome the questions that are asked and never cut someone mid-sentence or mid question.
7.       Feedback
Usually for presentation one should ask for the feedback of the listeners. What they understood from the whole conference. This helps improve the presenters’ skills and it also ensures that everyone did understand something out of the whole conference.
