Business News Presentation Self-Evaluation
One of the most powerful tools we can use to improve our public speaking skills is to watch a recording of our presentations. Yes, it can be uncomfortable, but this is how you can identify your strengths and weaknesses. Here’s what you need to do:
Watch your business news presentation. Watch the video at least three times.
Write a one-page memo about your business news presentation.
The memo should identify:
Strengths
Areas for improvement
Devise strategies to improve for the next presentation
Incorporate strategies from Harvard Business Review, your textbook and lectures
Provide a citation for your article. Use the APA in-text citation. The Library Business Research Assistant can help.
Use memo heading and format. Include an introduction paragraph, 3-5 paragraphs discussing your findings, and a conclusion paragraph.
Make sure it is free of grammatical and spelling errors
This is a "self-reflective" memo so it is ok to use "I." You can also use the third person. But stay consistent.
Remember: Smart Brevity is key to solid writing. Keep it to a single page, no more than a single page.
