Reflection on the Presentation

Last Friday, I've did my final presentation on The Beatles' Leadership.

Actually, I think I have to check the things I have to fix, or I should have not done, rather than listing what I thought was good.

Bad-point 1
The first thing is that I overused video-clips.
I wanted to show the songs, just for quick introduction and fun, but I didn't think about the loading time, and that video-part took pretty much time. That made me speak quite too fast later. The presentation time was rather short, so I should have cut that part, at least the half of them.

Bad point 2
The second thing is that I did not really care about the time, which is close to the first point. 
I took too much time on the introduction, and the leadership episode part had to be carried out in a hurry. That was because I was afraid that if the audience did not know much about the Beatles, the presentation would be boring.
Although, the presentation was about leadership, not the career of The Beatles, so I did not really have to show the information about the band, and I could introduce episodes that doesn't need so much background information. Or I could show a chronology(年表) in the slides at first and move on.

Bad-point 3
The third, and I think the biggest mistake, was that I chose my presentation time as the last day. I knew I would not start working early and make a high-quality presentation, but I chose Friday. This maybe deeply related to my character, but I should stop postponing things.

Good-point
My presentation had many things to be fixed and improved, but the good-point is that I could learn how to make and use the slides in presentations. Koji's presentation inspired me a lot. I could not really learn his confident delivery, but I learned much about slide-making, and it was meaningful.

Overall, I'm not really satisfied with my presentation. However, I will make this a lesson, and be a better presenter in the future!!!!
