Don’t just lecture: interact!

Presentations risk becoming a long, tiresome, and passive experience for the audience, even if the topic is exciting. Avoid simply lecturing. Instead, aim for a dynamic and interactive approach. Engage your audience in active discussions, and incorporate interactive elements.
For example, use open-ended questions, conduct a poll, or present a challenge by asking your audience how they would address a specific issue. Any activity that breaks up the presentation and encourages audience participation is beneficial.
