Effective Skills and Strategies for HR Presentations
Strategies
Executives need to immediately see the connection between what you are talking about and their driving
goals.” He also urges HR reps to discuss finances: “Always include business case financial numbers when
you can talk dollars and cents.”
Layouts
When asked about the layout of the presentation, these HR professionals talked about creating an appealing
design and avoiding wordiness.
“The most boring aspect of HR presentations could be presenting the same old concept in the same old way.
The best practice or trick to avoid boring your audience is to keep your deck short and to the point and to cut
out the ‘known.’”
•In addition, consider incorporating the following in your
layouts to spice up your HR presentation slides:
•Visuals – No one wants to read through wordy slides. Keep it simple and creative by
illustrating your main points through visuals such as pie charts, graphs, flows charts,
images, and videos. These will help engage your audience and keep their attention. If you
use charts or icons to represent data visually, arrange your visuals on top with text below
for better readability. If you’re using images to tell a story, make sure they’re big and on
the left side of the slide. This will create a more comfortable visual flow for your
audience.
•Weave in some humor – Sometimes, adding a dose of humor can really help bring the
message home. So spice up your presentation with some comedy. Perhaps you can kick it
off by providing a funny video, image, meme, or quote that pertains to your topic. Just be
sure it’s office appropriate.
•Develop interactive materials and handouts – To hold the attention of your audience,
consider adding a handout to your presentation where they can take notes and write down
any questions. You could also incorporate some fun, short quizzes or surveys to which
your audience can respond online using virtual tools such as Poll Everywhere.
•Provide short snippets – Avoid providing too much information, and utilize bullet
points and numbered lists to make your HR presentation short and sweet. You may know
ten reasons why an organization should make the switch to e-signatures, but you’ll want
to limit your points to four or five. Less is more. And you can always include your
additional points in a special report you share after the presentation.
