Episode description

One of the more challenging parts of any presentation is the very first part. If you are wondering how to introduce yourself before starting your presentation, you are in good company. For most of us, once we get the first few sentences out, our nervousness will diminish pretty significantly. So, this initial self-introduction is really important. If we struggle here, our nervousness will increase. In addition, the old adage, “You never get a second chance to make a first impression,” is very true.

In this post, we are going to cover the best way, a very simple three-step process that will help you introduce yourself in a presentation. A summary of the steps is below.

  1. Start with your name and company (or organization or school).
  2. Tell your audience what problem you can solve for them.
  3. Share some type of proof (social proof works best) that you can solve this problem.

I will break down each step into a simple-to-follow process.
