One of the skills that sets professionals apart in their organizations is their ability to speak confidently in public conveying their ideas, plans, proposals and expectations to inspire, educate, inform and persuade others. Presentation skills are highly sought after and are very rare, and an important part of effective presentations is ensuring that you have the right structure for your presentation.

Our research and experience suggest that a well-structured presentation consists of five elements: 1) a powerful opening; 2) an insightful middle; 3) an action-oriented first closing; 4) an interactive Q&A; and 5) the door-opening final close.
