(Inspired by Lori’s recent PDD session on TECHniques for influential presentations)
Technical leaders are brilliant problem-solvers—but when it’s time to present, their message can get buried under data and jargon.
I see it all the time: smart professionals who lose their audience because they try to share everything they know instead of what their audience needs to know.
Here’s how to make your next technical presentation impactful:
- Lead with the “why.” Start with the business impact or problem you’re solving. Hook them before diving into details.
- Use a clear structure. Organize content into 3–5 key points. A roadmap builds trust and keeps your audience with you.
- Translate, don’t just transmit. Swap technical terms for plain language when speaking to non-technical stakeholders.
The result? You’ll shift from “information overload” to “influential communicator”—and your message will stick.
