Along with the engineering topic for presentation, other factors contribute to its success. Some of the most prominent key factors for a good presentation are discussed below:

1. Try to Keep it Brief with Data

A common mistake to avoid while preparing a presentation slide is overfilling text. Engineers should keep presentation slides content informative yet brief. People get bored with complex wording and lengthy content. It is suggested to use eye-catching slides that include bullet points.

The addition of bullet points and readable fonts puts the audience at ease. Moreover, you must avoid slang, jargon, and complex terms that can confuse the audience. Another way to achieve the audience's interest is by inserting colorful illustrations in slides.

2. Know Your Audience and the Potential Questions

Before presenting, get to know about your potential audience and their expertise level. It will be helpful in a successful presentation. You can quote relevant examples by knowing the audience's knowledge level and interests. Moreover, it enables you to memorize relevant terminologies and expected questions.

This will enhance your credibility as a presenter and maintain the audience's attention. However, due to interest, your audience will listen to the presentation with attention. Knowing potential questions enables you to create backup slides and enhance confidence.

3. Choose an Interesting Template

Slides are short notes to keep the audience attentive toward the presented topic. A visually appealing slide template is essential to engage them in the presentation. For engineering students, use a template that contains attractive infographics for statistical data. Moreover, use a template that offers complete customization options according to your choices.

In addition, a relative appearance, trending graphics, and layouts make a template unique. Despite the attractive nature of the template, it should be easy to edit to save time.

4. Enhanced Visual Effects

Compelling visual aids grab the audience's attention in seconds. These include transitions and animation in most parts. Engineering students can add icons, symbols, diagrams, and equations. Format your presentation in readable fonts and color palettes. Plus, organize your content according to the topic hierarchy.

A Comprehensive Guide to Mechanical Engineering Presentations

• Mechanical Engineering

Welcome to our easy-to-follow guide on creating impactful mechanical engineering presentations.

Whether you’re a student or a professional in the field, this guide is here to help you present technical information clearly and confidently.

We’ll start by explaining why it’s crucial to know your audience and adjust your talk to fit their knowledge level.

Then, we’ll share effective ways to organize your presentation to grab and hold attention, including how to make slides that are both eye-catching and full of useful information.

You’ll also learn the best way to speak confidently and handle any questions from the audience smoothly.

Our goal is for you to be able to share your ideas and findings in a way that is interesting and convincing.

Understanding Your Audience

When you’re getting ready to give a talk on mechanical engineering, it’s really important to think about who will be listening. For example, if your audience knows a lot about different areas of engineering, you’ll want to explain things differently than if they were all experts in how fluids move or how heat works.

You want to make sure your talk is just right—not too simple or too complex—so that people stay interested and aren’t confused. It’s crucial to be clear and use words that precisely describe what you mean without being confusing. Use pictures or charts to help tell your story and make sure they’re easy to see and understand.

When you’re speaking, try to fill in any knowledge that your audience might be missing so they can fully grasp what you’re saying. For instance, if you’re talking about a new pump design, don’t just throw out technical terms. Instead, say something like, ‘This new pump design can move water much faster because it has a more efficient blade shape, similar to how a ceiling fan with curved blades moves air more effectively.’ This way, you’re giving a specific example that’s easy to visualize, which helps your audience understand the benefit of the design.

Always check that your words and pictures are spot on and that you’re writing like you’re having a conversation with someone. Your goal is to give a rich, detailed talk that everyone in your audience can learn from.

Structuring Your Presentation

Start your engineering talk by explaining its goal and what you’ll discuss. This helps your listeners follow along and understand the information better. Open with an engaging introduction that explains why the topic matters. If needed, include a section on previous research to lay the groundwork for your points.

Make the main part of your talk about important themes or discoveries, using numbers and studies to back up what you’re saying. Design each slide to stand on its own and add to the story you’re telling. End by going over the key points and suggesting ideas for further study or how the work can be used. Make sure to leave time for questions and talks.

Designing Effective Slides

Creating good slides is very important for explaining complex ideas in mechanical engineering in a clear and brief way.

When you make slides, pick a straightforward, professional-looking template that doesn’t take away from what you’re trying to say. Use text and background colors that stand out against each other so people can read your slides from far away.

Keep your text short and to the point, using key phrases and bullet points, because too much text can be too much for your audience. Add clear diagrams, schematics, or simulations that show mechanical processes or parts; make sure these images are clear and accurately labeled.

When you show data, use graphs or charts that are easy to understand, with a clear legend and the right scale. Keep your font size, style, and how your slides change the same throughout to make your presentation smooth.

Double-check that all your technical details are correct and try to give a lot of information without making your slides too busy.

Delivering With Confidence

A mechanical engineer’s delivery should exude confidence, as it reinforces the credibility of the presentation and engages the audience effectively.

To project this assurance, the engineer must be well-versed in the subject matter, demonstrating technical proficiency throughout the discourse. Mastery of the topic facilitates a clear and articulate explanation of complex concepts, ensuring that the details are communicated with precision.

It is imperative that the presenter practices the material extensively, which not only hones the delivery but also prepares them for potential inquiries, allowing for detailed responses delivered with authority.

Utilizing a steady pace and maintaining eye contact can further convey a sense of confidence, making the information presented not just understood but respected.

Handling Questions Skillfully

While delivering with confidence is crucial, adeptly handling audience questions is equally important in demonstrating a mechanical engineer’s expertise during a presentation.

When approached with inquiries, it is imperative to listen attentively, ensuring that the question is fully understood before formulating a response. This not only shows respect for the individual’s query but also allows for a precise and tailored answer.

Engineers should aim to communicate their responses with clear, unambiguous language, avoiding overly technical jargon unless it is audience-appropriate.

Furthermore, when a question falls outside the presenter’s scope of knowledge, it is vital to acknowledge this candidly, offering to follow up with additional information post-presentation if possible. Such an approach maintains credibility and fosters an environment of professional integrity.

For a mechanical engineering presentation to be effective, it’s essential to know who you’re talking to and make your story easy to follow. This helps you connect with your audience and makes it easier for everyone to learn and grow professionally.

Creating slides that grab attention is also crucial. Well-designed visuals can enhance understanding and engage your audience.

Speaking with confidence is another important aspect. When you present with confidence, you convey credibility and expertise, which helps your audience trust the information you’re sharing.

Lastly, being good at answering questions is essential. Mechanical engineering concepts can be complex, and your audience may have inquiries. Being prepared and knowledgeable in your responses will further enhance your presentation’s effectiveness.

By getting these key elements right, even the toughest engineering ideas can be explained so everyone understands. It is through effective communication that professionals in mechanical engineering can thrive and succeed.

Technical Presentation

Structure diagram, criteria for success.

• The presentation starts with the motivating problem for the research and why it’s being presented.
• Every slide shows something relevant to the motivating problem.
• Every slide shows no more information than necessary to convey the message.
• Slide titles stand on their own; other text supports the visuals.
• The audience takes away the presenter’s desired message .

Identify Your Message and Purpose

Identify your message and goals as a presenter and use them to organize your presentation. Your message is what you wish to convey to the audience, and is your primary goal. Other goals could include eliciting feedback, receiving a job offer, etc. Use your goals to structure your presentation, making it easier for the audience to follow your logic and identify important points that support your goals.

For example, if your goal is to communicate a new scientific result, focus on the results and broader implications rather than your methodology. Specific methods should take a back seat (e.g. “I measured key material properties,” rather than “I found the thermal decomposition temperature and profile”). Spend more time focusing on what the result means, and how it can be used.

Alternatively, if your goal is to elicit feedback from colleagues on an experimental apparatus, focus more on the experimental methods. Compare the advantages and disadvantages to alternatives. Explain your assumptions, base models and why your proposed experimental design will give more useful results than other designs would.

In less formal settings such as lab meetings, you can explicitly tell your audience what you’re looking for (e.g., “I’d appreciate feedback on my experimental methods”).

Analyze Your Audience

Understanding your audience is of paramount importance for a successful presentation. Highlight how your goals overlap with what audience cares about, so they receive your message. A well-designed presentation will steer the audience’s attention such that you can lead them to the exact point that you want them to take away.

Different audiences have different goals for attending a presentation, and therefore pay attention to different things. For example, at the same talk, an engineer may be interested in using your result to solve their problem, a scientist in the broader scientific advance, a venture capitalist in its impact as a novel product, and clinician about how your device could improve their patients’ care. The introduction of your presentation should speak to the range of backgrounds and experiences in your audience.

That being said, often an audience consists of people with similar backgrounds and interests. Therefore, identify whether jargon is appropriate for an audience, and to what extent. Consider whether other methods, such as images or analogies, are more appropriate to convey concepts that would otherwise rely on jargon.

Plan Out the Presentation

Presentations are constrained by the fact that they progress linearly in time, unlike a written piece of communication, where the reader may jump forwards and backwards to get at the information they seek. Outline the content of the entire presentation first, then begin to design the slides, rather than jumping straight into them.

Lay out the order in which the content needs to be presented to achieve your goals, such that your message flows from point to point, topic to topic. This order may be very different from the structure of the journal paper you’ve already written.

Start by motivating your work with a problem that everyone cares about. Then develop your message step by step, from the background to the final message, so the logic flows clearly.

In many cases (depending on the audience), it might be most appropriate to reveal your conclusions up-front, so that the audience can tie everything else in the presentation back to supporting those conclusions. For instance, technology-focused program managers or engineering sponsors are likely most interested in your results, which will determine whether they are interested enough to pay attention to your process and justification. By contrast, certain scientific communities appreciate being taken through your scientific process to develop their own conclusions before you present yours.

Because the audience cannot immediately see a presentation’s structure like they can with a paper, it is often a good idea to provide a high-level roadmap of the presentation early on. At key points throughout the presentation, remind them of where they are on the roadmap.

Connect Your Work Back to the Broader Motivation

At the beginning of your talk, develop the broader context for your work and lay out the motivating questions you aim to answer. The audience should understand how your answers have an impact on the broader context, and why a solution was not immediately possible without your work.

At the next level down, when showing data and results, make sure it’s clear what they contribute to answering the motivating questions.

Anticipate Questions

If your audience is following along with your presentation, they’ll likely have questions about why you made certain decisions or didn’t make others. Sometimes, the questions could arise from what you’ve said and presented. Other times, they’ll arise from a listener’s knowledge of the field and the problem that you’re working on.

While you design your presentation, think about what kinds of questions may come up, and identify how you will address them. For less formal talks, you can anticipate interruptions to discuss these questions, whereas for more formal talks you should make sure that none of the questions are so big that they’ll preoccupy your listeners. For big questions, decide if you’ll explicitly address them in your talk. For smaller ones, consider adding back-up slides that address the issue.

Remember – while you know all of the information that is coming up in your talk, the audience probably does not. If they develop a question that doesn’t get addressed clearly, they could get distracted from the rest of the points you make.

You can use questions to create strong transitions: “seed” the listener’s thought process with the questions you’re about to answer in an upcoming slide. If a listener develops a question, and then you answer it immediately after, your message will stick much better!

Each Slide Should Convey a Single Point

Keep your message streamlined—make a single point per slide. This gives you control over the pace and logic of the talk and keeps everyone in the audience on the same page. Do not be afraid of white space—it focuses your audience’s attention.

The slide title should identify where you are on your roadmap and what topic the question the slide is answering. In other words, the audience should know exactly where in the presentation and what the slide answers just from the slide title.

Strong Titles Tell a Message

Strong titles highlight where on the roadmap you are, and hint at what question the slide is answering. Weak titles tend to be vague nouns that could be used across many slides or presentations. A rule of thumb is your title should be a clear, single-line phrase illustrating the importance of the slide.

Note that different mechanical engineering fields have different preferences for titles that are phrases versus full sentences. In general, design, system, or product-focused presentations tend to have short titles that only highlight what the speaker is saying, allowing audiences to focus more on the body of the slide, which is usually a figure. In other fields, a strong title might instead be a full sentence that states a message.

Emphasize Visuals

When a new slide is presented, most people will shift their attention from what you’re saying to the slide. People can often interpret figures and listen, but not read text and listen simultaneously. The more words on the slide, the less control you have over your audience’s attention. If you are reading words off the slide, you’ve lost the audience’s attention completely—they’ll just read the slide too.

Use brief statements and keywords to highlight and support the slide’s individual point. Slides are a visual medium, so use them for figures, equations, and as few words as possible to convey the meaning of the slide.

If you have a block of text on your slide, ask yourself what the takeaway message is, and what is the necessary supporting material (data, analysis). Then, identify how text can be reduced to still support your point clearly. Consider…

• Replacing text with figures, tables, or lists.
• Eliminating all but key words and phrases, and speaking the bulk of the text instead.
• Breaking up the slide into multiple slides with more visuals.

Replace blocks of text with easy-to-read pictures, tables or diagrams.

Left: The original slide provides specific information as text, but makes it easy for both speaker and audience to read directly off the slide, often leading to a distracted audience.

Right: The improved slide conveys the same information with a simple graphic and keywords, conveying the chronology more clearly, and allowing the reader to speak the same information without reading off the slide.

Simplify Figures

The purpose of a figure is to convey a message visually, whether it be supporting evidence or a main point. Your audience usually gives you the benefit of the doubt and assumes that whatever you show in the figure is important for them to understand. If you show too much detail, your audience will get distracted from the important point you want them to gather.

An effective presentation figure is often not one made for a paper. Unlike you scrutinizing your own data or reading an academic paper, your audience doesn’t have a long time to pore over the figure. To maximize its effectiveness, ask yourself what minimum things need to be shown for the figure to make its point. Remove anything that doesn’t illuminate the point to avoid distraction. Simplify data labels, and add emphasis to key parts using colors, arrows, or labels.

Additionally, presentations offer different opportunities than papers do for presenting data. You can use transitions on your slides to sequentially introduce new pieces of information to your slide, such as adding data to a plot, highlighting different parts of an experiment (or equation), or introducing text concepts as bullets.

Simplify data, simplify labels for emphasis.

Top: Academic referees and peers would prefer to see the complete theoretical model and experimental data (top), so they can interpret it for themselves. In addition, in papers, space is limited, while time to digest is not.

Bottom: But in a presentation, simplifying the data makes it easy to focus on the feature of interests for the presentation, or even at that moment (different regions may be highlighted from slide to slide). Slides provide plenty of space, while time is at a premium. [Adapted from Wind-Willassen et al., Phys. Fluids 25, 082002 (2013); doi:10.1063/1.4817612]

Introduce Your Data

Make sure your audience will be able to understand your data before you show it. They should know what the axes will be, what points in the plot generally represents, and what pattern or signal they’re looking for. If you’re showing a figure common to a specific audience, you may not need to explain as much. But if you show the data before the audience knows how to read it, they’ll stop listening to you, and instead scrutinize the figure, hoping that a knitted brow will help them understand.

If you are worried your audience won’t understand your data, one approach is to show sketches of what the data would should like if your hypothesis were true or false. Then show your real data.

For an audience unfamiliar with cyclic battery testing as a way to measure corrosion, first show a slide explaining how the electrical signal would appear without corrosion ( top ) before showing the slide with the actual data ( bottom ). Use parallel design across the explanation and data slides. This way, the audience is introduced to the logic of the experiments and how to draw conclusions from the data, making them more likely to follow and agree with the point made on the second slide. [Adapted from AAE2]

Be Critical of Visual and Textual Jargon

If there are discipline-accepted symbols, for example in fluid or electrical schematics, using them is an effective tool to simplify your visual for people in your field. However, if these may be unknown to a significant portion of your audience, be sure to add a descriptive keyword, label or legend.

Use simple, consistent visual design

A clean set of slides will minimize visual noise, focus the audience’s attention and improve the continuity between what you’re showing and telling. The graphical design is also important for setting the tone and professionalism of the presentation.

• Are colors related to each other? Do some carry intrinsic meaning (e.g. blue = cold, water, red = hot)?
• Are you using colors that are well-represented when projected?
• Are your color choices appropriate for colorblind members of the audience? Can you textures or line/point styles to differentiate data instead?
• Spread out elements on a slide to use space effectively—don’t be afraid of white space! By limiting the amount of information on a slide, you can control what your audience will focus on at each moment in time.
• Use your software’s alignment and centering features.
• When items are grouped as a list, make sure they actually belong under a helpful unifying theme.
• Make sure all text and figures are legible to the back of the room.

How to Choose a Great Presentation Topic in 5 Steps

120 presentation topic ideas, 5 presentation tips.

4. Choose an appropriate presentation style.

There are many ways to present a topic. Your personality, the topic at hand, and your audience’s personas will help you determine which style would best fit you and your audience.

Select a presentation style that will communicate the main idea clearly and have a lasting impact on your audience.

For instance, explore a freeform style presenter by Sir Ken Robinson.

5. Engage with your audience.

Work on your presentation skills to make a strong connection with your audience, get through to them and leave a mark.

Think of the presenter as the link between the topic and the audience. A strong or a weak presenter can make a difference between a presentation being a thriving success or a boring failure.

Hone your skills by engaging and interacting with your audience. Make them feel like a part of the presentation and not just spectators. 70% of marketers have found presentations with interactive content to be more effective than those without.

Here are a few ways you can make your presentation interactive:

• Start your speech with uncommon questions to your audience. Involve them from the get-go, like ask to raise their hands if X.
• Make eye contact to build credibility and show confidence. Don’t stare at your slides or notes. Smile occasionally and talk to the audience directly.
• Have an active and confident body language. Don’t stand in the same place the entire time. Move around the stage.
• Don’t be monotonous. Speak as you would to a colleague — with enthusiasm.
• Ask close-ended questions in between to keep the audience engaged without losing time. Address them using their names to keep things interesting.
• Share personal experiences and stories that your audience will find fascinating and relatable.
• Practice thoroughly before you present so you’re fluent with the material and delivery.
• Energy and excitement can be quite contagious. Make sure you exude enough to spread some to your audience.

Feeling Inspired Yet?

Now you have all the right ingredients for choosing amazing topics and a hundred ideas to drive inspiration from. So, go ahead and start cooking presentations that will blow your audience away.

Don’t forget to choose a super-relevant topic and add meaty information. Do it with excitement to make it enjoyable for you and your audience. Best of luck!

Why Do Teachers Assign Student-Selected Presentations? [Infographic]

By now, you must have already chosen a presentation topic idea . But you might still be wondering why your teacher assigned you this task in the first place.

No, your teacher is not out to get you by assigning a presentation you have to choose the topic for. There are a few reasons why teachers and professors assign presentations this way.

Choosing a presentation topic idea inspires you to look inside themselves to find a topic of interest. Knowing about your interests helps give direction to your future life and career plans.

Selecting topics to present about in school also helps you learn how to do research properly. You get more familiar with the practice of taking notes, creating an outline and prioritizing information.

Brainstorming various topic ideas is also great for improving your creative performance. And finally, getting up on stage and presenting prepares you for public speaking in front of an audience.

Here's a quick infographic to sum it all up.

Believe it or not, assigning a presentation is one of the best ways to teach a student how to learn on their own. It’s similar to asking a student to write an essay, but a lot more fun!

If you're overwhelmed by all the school presentation ideas above and aren't sure which one is right for your presentation, don't worry. We have tips to help you pick the right topic in no time.

If after this process you still aren’t sure, just browse through the list above and find a specific presentation subject idea that sparks your interest most.

The first step to figuring out what your presentation should be about is to ask yourself these questions:

• What are your hobbies?
• What type of books do you read?
• When you play Trivial Pursuit, which topic are you good at?
• What kind of TV shows do you watch?
• What would you like to learn more about?

What Are Your Hobbies?

It’s easy to find a presentation topic by looking at your hobbies. The best part of this choice is that you’ll be passionate when presenting it to your peers.

For example, if you love woodworking, create a presentation about the history of woodworking or a step-by-step look at “How to make a wooden bowl by hand.”

What Type of Books Do You Read?

When looking for innovative topics for presentation, consider the style of books you’ve been reading lately. Have any of them made an impact on your life?

If you're having a difficult time coming up with a topic idea, you can create a presentation about a book that you found really special, or about an author you’ve read a few books by.

When You Play Trivial Pursuit, Which Topic Are You Good At?

If you've ever played Trivial Pursuit or attended a Trivia Night, you must have noticed that some topics are easier for you to answer. That is your topic of interest and a great place to look for some ideas.

For example, if you always know the answer to the questions about classical music, you can create a presentation about your favorite composer.

What Kind of TV Shows Do You Watch?

What have you been binge-watching lately? Regardless if its Orange is The New Black or a documentary about the Sudanese civil war, you can find an interesting topic to work with.

It can be about history or current events. You could even do some kind of comparative analysis on how a specific show has affected you or the people who watch it.

What Would You Like to Learn More About?

Another way to find the best topics for presentation is to think of things you want to learn more about. Take the opportunity to learn something new and then share it in your presentation.

Present the facts of what you learned or turn the presentation into a journal entry of your personal experience using the new information that you just learned.

Additionally, it’s important to remember that whatever topic you choose, it must also be appropriate.

“Depending on your audience and occasion purpose, you have to steer away from topics that might bore or offend your audience.”

Once you have chosen the perfect presentation topic idea, it’s time to create your presentation. Here are some tips for putting together a great presentation that will get you a good grade.

Presentation Mistakes to Avoid

First things first, let’s talk about some presentation no-nos. You want to avoid these mistakes in any presentation you give—from a presentation for a grade in your middle school class all the way up to a business presentation.

Key presentation don’ts are:

• Don’t create slides full of text —your presentation is not a 30-page essay. Instead, create slides with just a few bullets and some type of visual to represent your content.
• Don’t just read off of your slides —you’ll bore your audience. Practice and rehearse your presentation or create index cards with speaking notes to make your presentation more engaging.
• Don’t use a new design, transition, animation, etc., on each slide —you’ll clutter up your design. Choose one single design, color scheme, font pairing, transition style, animation effect, etc., and use it throughout to create a cohesive presentation design.
• Don’t present on topics you don’t understand —you’ll sound like you don’t know what you’re talking about. Even if you’re choosing a “new to you” topic, you need to do enough research to have a firm grasp on the information you’re presenting.
• Don’t ramble and go over your allotted time —you’ll sound flustered and unorganized. Again, make sure you practice your presentation so that you can smoothly transition from slide to slide and cover all information in the time given.

Regardless of the topic you're presenting, creating drafts shouldn't be a challenge. Utilize Visme's AI writer to generate high-quality content in seconds. Feel free to deploy it as a proofreading tool or an outline creator. Just describe what you want to write about and get content ideas or Power Point presentation topics and the tool will work out the details.

Use Data Visualization in Your Presentation

Regardless of which type of topic you’ve chosen, there’s likely some sort of data or information that would be better presented via visuals rather than written out numbers or text.

Make sure you choose a presentation tool that makes it easy to visualize certain information. For example, Visme allows you to create a number of data visualizations that help make information pop on your slide.

Some examples of data visualizations you can use within your presentation include:

• Timelines for historical information
• Charts and graphs for numerical data sets
• Tables for organizing text
• Maps for sharing geographic information
• Flowcharts and diagrams for organizing information
• Data widgets for visualizing standalone numbers

Avoid Using Boring Layouts

Don’t let your presentation look like a PowerPoint from the nineties with a blank white background and two columns of boring bullet points. Instead, take advantage of engaging presentation templates and spice up your slides.

First, start with a template that’s going to make your information stand out. You can browse a few options that Visme offers below. Use Visme’s Brand Wizard to automatically add your brand’s assets to your presentation.

Look for a unique way of presenting the information, use interesting backgrounds, apply shaped frames to the images, embed videos and use colorful shapes to create separations.

But for some specific ideas, consider pulling these design tactics into your presentation.

Slide Background Ideas:

• Set photos as your slide background
• Use color overlays to make sure your content is still visible on top of the photo background
• Create a gradient background
• Use a stock video as your background to create motion
• Choose a color other than white as your background
• Set a pattern as your background
• Use an animated background

Visual Element Ideas:

• Place photos strategically on your slide to drive your point home
• Use colorful shapes and animated graphics
• Try 3D graphics to make your content pop
• Apply shaped frames to images within your slides
• Use icons to visualize your text

Interactive Ideas:

There are so many ways to make sure your slides are engaging so you keep your audience interested throughout your entire presentation. Visme offers tons of features to make your presentation interactive .

• Incorporate hover-overs or pop-ups that hide additional information
• Link your slides to create a non-linear presentation
• Embed videos that provide even more information
• Create audio clips that activate when you click on an element

Prepare for Your Presentation

We already touched on how important it is to practice and rehearse your presentation. You want to appear confident and well-versed in your topic. Presenting and public speaking are also skills that you can carry into adulthood in your future career.

Although nerve-wracking, you’ll have a turn to deliver your presentation in front of the class. You’ll give your speech while simultaneously showcasing your slides.

Utilize these tips when preparing for your presentation:

• Practice speaking while moving through your slides at least three times
• Memorize the order of your slides and what information is on each slide
• Create a flashcard for each slide so you have basic talking points in front of you
• Use memorization techniques so you don’t have to fully rely on your flashcards
• Focus on the end goal: delivering your presentation may be stressful but it will also make you feel great when you’re finished

Keep Your Audience Engaged During Your Presentation

Our last tip is to keep your audience engaged throughout your presentation. This will help your fellow classmates to better retain the information you’re sharing in your slides and can even help you feel more confident as you present.

A few tips for engaging your audience include:

• Avoid using a monotonous tone; instead, tell stories, speak conversationally, and hold your audience’s attention
• Try not to say things like, “um,” “er,” “like” and similar terms
• Focus on keeping good posture throughout
• Avoid chewing gum, fidgeting or doing other things that will detract from your speech
• Make eye contact with your audience rather than staring at your notes or your slides

120+ Presentation Ideas, Topics & Example

Written by: Ryan McCready May 08, 2023

Did you know that 46% of people can’t sit through a presentation without losing focus? 

That’s why I wanted to learn how to make a presentation that will captivate an audience. After looking at hundreds of different authors, topics and designs, I’ve assembled over 100 presentation ideas and tips on how to design a compelling presentation for:

• Social media
• Online courses
• Pitch decks
• Lead generation

In this blog, you’ll find 120+ presentation ideas, design tips and examples to help you create an awesome presentations slide deck for your next presentation.

To start off, here’s a video on the 10 essential presentation design tips to make sure that your presentations don’t fall under the YAWN category.

1. Use a minimalist presentation theme

CREATE THIS PRESENTATION TEMPLATE

The best designs can also be some of the simplest you see. In the Airbnb pitch deck below, they use a minimalist color scheme and font selection.

A minimalist design is sleek, organized and places the most important thing in focus: your information. There are no distracting stock images, icons, or content. Everything on this unique presentation feels like it belongs and works together perfectly. 

Learn how to customize this template:

2. Use a consistent design motif throughout your presentation

Here’s a go-to tip to for a cohesive presentation design: use a design motif. The motif could be a recurring shape (like circles, lines or arrows) or symbol (like a leaf for “growth” or a mountain for “goals”). For more ideas, check out our guide to common symbols and meanings used in design .

For example, this  presentation template uses circles as a design motif. The same circle icon is used in three different colors to add a bubbly touch to the design. The team photos are also incorporated using circle frames:

3. Use an eye-catching presentation background image

Like with any type of design work, you should want to catch the eye of your audience. In a presentation, this should be done from the beginning with a  compelling background image or a color gradient.

In this presentation template, the creators were able to do just that with a landscape photo. When a presentation like this is seen on social media, during a webinar or in person, your audience will definitely listen up.

4. Visualize your points with icons

Icons are the perfect visuals to include in presentations. They’re compact and can convey a concept to your audience at a glance. You can even combine multiple icons to create custom illustrations for your slides.

5. Use a black & white color scheme for a corporate presentation design

In the presentation below there are only two colors used: black and white. Now, you might be worried that only using two colors is boring, but it all comes down to balance.

Playing off the ideas of classic minimalism, the designer made this presentation look sleek and professional. And now your content can be the main attraction of your presentation as well!

6. Repurpose your slide deck into an infographic 

Different types of presentations serve different purposes and sometimes it helps to work smarter, not harder when you are creating a unique presentation. In fact, the spacing, layout, and style used in this presentation makes it easy to repurpose the same images into an infographic.

This allows you to create two unique pieces of content from one idea!  Which is exactly what  Officevibe did .

7. Break your genre mold for a fun presentation idea

When I first clicked on this creative presentation from SEMrush, I was not expecting to be transported into a comic book. I’m glad I clicked because it may be the most unique slide deck I have ever seen. Going this extreme with your presentation ideas may seem a bit risky, but to be able to break the mold in this age of cookie-cutter presentations is worth it.

To leave a lasting impression on your audience, consider transforming your slides into an interactive presentation. Here are 15  interactive presentation ideas  to enhance interactivity and engagement.

8. Make your presentation cover slide count

As I was scrolling through all of the presentations, this one made me stop in my tracks. It could be that I have a life-long love of Star Wars, or it could be that their presentation cover slide was designed to do just that: grab your attention. That’s why you should not stick with a boring, text-only title slide. Don’t be afraid to use icons and illustrations to make a statement.

9.  Alternate slide layouts to keep your presentation engaging

Keeping your audience engaged throughout an entire presentation is hard, even if you have been working on your presentation skills . No one wants to look at slides that look exactly the same for an hour. But on the other hand, you can’t create a unique masterpiece for each slide.

That’s why I’m very impressed with what the designers did in the presentation example above. They use a consistent visual theme on each slide, but alternate between vertical and horizontal orientations.

The swapping of orientations will show people that the presentation is progressing nicely. It can help you make a strong, almost physical, distinction between ideas, sections or topics.  

10. Make your audience laugh, or at least chuckle

Sometimes you need to not take your business presentations too seriously. Not sure what I mean? Go check out slide number 10 on this slide deck below.

If you did not actually laugh out loud, then I don’t know what to tell you. Small illustrated embellishments can be very powerful because they evoke an emotional response and to gain your audience’s trust.

Did you know 70% of employees think that giving a good presentation is an essential workplace skill? Check out the top qualities of awesome presentations and learn all about how to make a good presentation to help you nail that captivating delivery.

11. Supplement your presentation with printed materials

Printed takeaways (such as brochures and business cards ) give audience members a chance to take home the most important elements of your presentation in a format they can easily access without using a computer. Make sure you brand these materials in a way that’s visually consistent with your slide deck, with the same color scheme, icons, and other iconic features; otherwise, your recipients will just end up scratching their heads.

If you’re giving people multiple materials, try packaging them all into one convenient presentation folder. There are over 100 styles with a wide range of custom options, so feel free to get creative and make your folder stand out. Sometimes a unique die cut or an unusual stock is all you need to make something truly memorable. Here are some brochure templates to get you started.

12. Only use one chart or graphic per slide 

Having too much information on a slide is the easiest way to lose the focus of your audience. This is especially common when people are using graphs, charts or tables .

In this creative slide deck, the author made sure to only include one focal point per slide, and I applaud them for it. I know this may sound like a simple presentation tip, but I have seen many people lose their audience because the slides are too complex.

13. Keep your employee engagement presentations light   

Sometimes you need to get away from stuffy, professional presentation ideas to capture your audience’s attention. In this case, Officevibe used some very colorful and playful illustrations to stand out from the crowd.

I mean, who could not love the plant with a face on slide number 9? And if you want to see some more icons and illustrations like this, be sure to check out our article on how to tell a story with icons.

14.  Feature a map when talking about locations

Including a map in your creative presentations is a fantastic idea! Not only do they make an interesting focal point for your slide layout, they also make location-based information easier to understand.

This cool presentation example by our pro designers at Venngage uses maps to visualize information. This map both dominates the screen, and also displays all the locations being covered.

15. Use a font that is large and in charge 

If you are presenting to a small group or a packed stadium, make sure your audience can see your text! Use a large and in charge font that can be read from even the nosebleed seats. 

Honestly, you really never know where your unique presentation will be seen. It could be seen in a conference room or conference hall, and everything in between. Be ready to present almost anywhere with a bold and easy to read font.

16. Use pop culture references to build a fun presentation 

Using a meme or pop culture reference is another way that you can jive with your audience. It can be used to quickly get a point across without saying a word or create a moment that you can connect with the room. For example in this presentation, they used Napoleon Dynamite to give the audience feelings of nostalgia.

17. Use more than one font weight on your presentation cover slide

Just like you would never use one font on an infographic, you should never use just one font on your presentation (for more tips, read our guide on how to choose fonts ). In this presentation example from HubSpot, they use a bunch of different font weights to add emphasis to key words and ideas.

As you can see, they use a bold font on the presentation cover to bring attention to Steve Jobs name. This makes it easy for the audience to know what your presentation is going to be about from the beginning as well. 

18. Use a color theme for each idea 

Color is another extremely powerful nonverbal tool that you can use to guide your audience. By using a different color for each section of your creative presentation, Dell is able to clearly indicate when they are switching points or ideas.  Going from green to orange, and even red almost effortlessly.

This is a great way to design a list, guide, or a  how-to presentation as well. And each color can be assigned to a different step or number with ease.

19. Use illustrations instead of pictures 

An easy way to keep your design consistent throughout your unique presentation is to use illustrations like in this slide deck by Domo.

They used illustrations instead of pictures to show off their subject on slide numbers 4-10 and it looks fantastic. This will ensure that the audience focuses on the content, instead of just the photo they could have used.

It also helps that illustrations are a top design trend for 2020 .

20. Use contrasting colors to compare two perspectives or sides of an argument 

Contrasting colors can be used to quickly show each side of topic or an argument. For example in this presentation, they use this trick to show the difference between their company and the competition.

They use color very effectively in this example to show their company is better, in a nonverbal way. With a lighter color and illustrated icons, the company is able to position them as the better choice. All without saying a word.  

Now if they would have used similar colors, or a single color the effect wouldn’t have been as strong or noticeable.

21. Include your own personal interests

This example is one of the most interesting and cool presentations I have seen in awhile, so I suggest checking out the entire thing. The creator inserts a bunch of his personal interests into the slide to make his presentation about education fun and relatable. And they even use a Super Mario Bros inspired presentation cover, so you know it has to be fantastic! 

22. Try to stick to groups of three 

How many major ideas should be present on your presentation aid? Never break your  presentation layout down into anything more than thirds. This means there should be at most three columns, three icons, three ideas and so on.  A great example of this idea starts on slide number 9 in this slide deck and continues throughout the rest of the presentation.

 Here is a great three columned slide template to get started with.

23. Add a timeline to help visualize ideas 

One of the best ways to visualize a complex process or historical event is to use a timeline presentation. A list of all the steps or events is just not going to cut it in a professional setting. You need to find an engaging way to visualize the information.

Take the presentation example above, where they outline the rise and fall of Athens in a visually stimulating way.

24. Label your graphs & charts 

If the people at Pollen VC had not added those annotations to the graphs on slide number 5, I would have definitely not known what to make of that graph.

But when you combine the visuals on a graph with descriptive text, the graph is able to paint a picture for your audience. So make your graphs easy to understand by annotating them (this is a chart design best practice ).

Create a free graph right here, right now!

25. White font over pictures just works 

There is a reason that you see so many quotes or sayings in a white font that are then overlaid on an image. That it is because it just works in so many situations and the text is very easy to read on any image.

If you do not believe me, look at the slide deck example above where they use a white font with a few different fonts and about 100 images. Plus the presentation template is chocked full of other tips on how to create a winning slideshow.

26. Color code your points across the whole presentation 

Here is another example of a presentation that uses color to keep their points organized. In this case, they use 10 different pastel colors to match the 10 different tips for employee engagement .

Check out our guide for how to pick the best colors for your visuals .

27.  Use a simple flow chart to break down a process

If you’re a fan of the movie Step Brothers , you may have heard of Prestige Worldwide before. In this fun presentation example they are back to sell you on their business model and growth plans.

This time, the presentation will be effective because it actually talks about what the business does.

Instead of making a music video, they use a helpful flowchart template to explain their business model. I would recommend following their lead and creating a dynamic flow chart to visually break down any process.  Try making your own flowchart  with Venngage.

28. Make your slide deck mobile friendly 

As more people move to mobile as their main device each year, making your presentations mobile-friendly is becoming increasingly important. This means that the text is large and there aren’t too many small details, so everything can scale down. Just like in this presentation example from the creators at Globoforce.

29. Don’t be afraid to include too many examples 

If you are presenting a complex idea to a group, especially a large audience, I would recommend having a ton of good examples. Now, I would try not to overdo it, but having too many it is better than having too few.

In this creative presentation, the people at With Company spend about 20 slides just giving great examples of prototyping. It doesn’t feel too repetitive because they all are useful and informative examples.

30.  Use consistent visual styles for an elegant presentation design

I have already written extensively about using icons in all of your design projects . I haven’t talked as much about matching icons to your presentation template.

But that’s just as important, especially if you want to create a professional presentation for your audience.

As you can see in the example above, the designer used minimalist icons that fit the slide designs. All of the other graphics, charts and visual elements fit together nicely as well.

Plus the icons don’t distract from the content, which could ruin a stellar presentation.

31. Use a consistent presentation layout 

In this example from Bannersnack, they use a consistent layout on each of their slides to help with the flow by using the same margins and text layout.

It’s a solid presentation example because they help the user know where to look immediately. It may seem like they are playing it safe, but anything that can speed up the time it takes for a user to read the content of the slides, the better.

32. Use loud colors as much as possible 

This is one of my favorite presentations because of the highlighter yellow they chose to use as their main color. It is actually very similar to one that I saw presented live a few years ago and I have used this same approach in a few presentations ideas of my own.

33. Pull your design motif from your content 

If you are talking about an interesting topic, why not use the topic as the main design motif in your creative slide deck? For example, in this presentation about sketchbooks, the creator uses a sketchy, handwritten motif. It is something simple that helps the audience connect with the topic. Plus, it allows you to include a ton of great examples.

34. Utilize a call & answer cadence

In this SlideShare about how to create a presentation, Peter Zvirinsky uses a two-step process to present a point. First, he presents the header presentation tip in a speech bubble. Then he shows a supporting point in a responding speech bubble. This gives the presentation a conversational flow.

35. Repurpose ebook content into a creative presentation

This slide deck was adapted perfectly from a Seth Godin ebook into the presentation example you see above. In the slide deck, they take a piece of content that would usually take a while to read and cut it down to a few minutes. Just remember to include only the most important ideas, and try to present them in a fresh way.

36. Add a timed outline to your presentation

We have already covered how important it is to have a table of contents in your slides but this takes it a bit further. On the second slide of the presentation below, the creator added how long each of the slides should take.

This is great because it helps your audience know the pace the presentation will take and will help keep them engaged. It also will help them identify the most important and in-depth parts of the presentation from the beginning.

37. Use a “next steps” slide to direct your audience

One of the worst things you can do as a presenter is to leave your audience without any idea of what to do next. A presentation should never just end because you ran out of slides.

Instead, use a conclusion or “next steps” slide like in the example above to finish your presentation. Sum up some of your main points, tell your audience where they can get more information, and push them to take action.

38. Go a bit crazy with the design 

Sometimes you need to throw convention to the wind to create something unforgettable. This presentation from Velocity Partners does just that, and I think it is one of my favorite ones from this entire roundup.

They use unconventional typography, quirky icons, and unusual presentation layout to make each slide surprising.

39. Make your slide deck easy to share 

If you are looking to get a lot of eyes on your presentation I would make sure people will want to share it on social media. How do you do that? By presenting new and interesting value. This means your content needs to answer a common question and your design needs to be clutter-free. For example, look at this very social media-friendly. The slides are simple and answer questions directly.

40.  Use shapes to integrate your photos into the slides

Want to include a bunch of images in your presentation? I say do it!

Now most of the time you would add a raw image directly to your slide. However, if you want to present images in a professional way I would recommend using an image frame .

Like in the example above, you can use these frame to create a collage of images almost instantly. Or provide a similar visual theme to all of your slides.  

Overall, I believe it’s a great way to add a new visual component to your presentation.

41. Hijack someone’s influence in your marketing slides

If you are stuck in the brainstorming phase of your presentation, focusing on a brand or influencer is a great place to start. It could be a case study, a collection of ideas or just some quotes from the influencer. But what makes it effective is that the audience knows the influencer and trusts them. And you are able to hijack their awareness or influence.

42. Put y our logo on every slide 

Whether you have a brand as powerful as Moz, or you are just getting started, you should always have your logo on each slide. You really never know where a presentation is going to end up–or what parts of it will! In this presentation template, Moz does a good job of including their branding and such to get others interested in Moz Local. Don’t have a logo yet? Our logo design tips will help you create a logo that’s iconic and will stand the test of time.

43. Lead your audience to it 

In this example, the creator uses something very similar to the call and answer approach I mentioned above, but with a little twist. Instead of just throwing all the info up at once, they use three slides to build to a particular point and include a subtle call to action in the third slide.

44. Make visuals the focal point of your presentation slides

If you haven’t noticed, illustrated icons are having a revival in 2020 and beyond. This is likely because minimalist icons dominated the design world for the past decade. And now people want something new.

Brands also like using illustrated icons because they are seen as genuine and fun.

And because they are so eye-catching you can use them as focal points in your presentation slides. Just like they did in the creative presentation example above.

Picking the perfect icon is tough, learn how you can use infographic icons like a pro.

45. Use a quirky presentation theme 

In this slide deck, the authors show you how to become an Animation Ninja…and they use ninja graphics and icons extensively. This caught my eye immediately because of the amount of work that I knew was behind this. It takes a lot of time and effort to line all of the content and graphic up to create a cohesive theme, but the payoff can be massively worth it.

46. Use a consistent background image 

I am a big fan of the way that Aleyda Solís uses only a single presentation background image throughout her presentation.

By using this tactic the audience is able to focus on what is happening in the foreground. Plus it gives the whole presentation a different feel than all the other ones I have looked at.

47. Summarize your points at the end

It’s a good idea to summarize your points before you end your presentation , especially if you’ve covered a lot of information. In this presentation example, Deanta summarizes exactly what they do on slide numbers 16-18. They also provide their contact information in case their audience has any more questions. I think that every presentation should use this same approach, especially the ones you are presenting outside of your company.

48. Use a minimalist presentation template

This slide deck from QuickBooks uses a minimalist theme to help the audience focus on what is important, the content.

There were only five colors used in the entire presentation and the graphics were simple line drawings. This made it easy to read and very pleasing to the eyes.

49. Split your slides length-wise 

Here is a simple template you can use to separate your headers, or main points, from your body text in a presentation.

Instead of using a solid presentation background, split the slide in half like Sequoia did in their slide deck. They used their brand color for the title portion and a neutral white for the supporting content.

Use this company report template to create a very similar slide right now!

50.  Embrace a bold color scheme throughout your presentation

My favorite part of the creative presentation example above is the use of complementary colors in each slide. As you can see, not one of the slides use the same color scheme but they all feel related connected.

This approach can be used to make your presentation visually unique, without abandoning a cohesive theme or idea.

51. Put text in the top left corner 

English speakers will instinctively try to read text from a top to bottom, left to right orientation. I would recommend using a left alignment for your text and adding additional things from top to bottom, just like Aaron Irizarry did in this presentation layout.

52. Break up your tables 

A plain table with a white background with black or gray lines are difficult to read on a computer screen, so why would you create one for viewing on a large presentation screen? You shouldn’t!

Instead, follow Intuit’s lead and break up the rows with a bit of color. This applies to data visualization in general , but think it is even more important when it comes to presentations.

53.  Present connected information in a visually similar way

In this startup pitch presentation example, they have a ton of information to get through. But they present their most important slides, the problem and solution, in a visually similar way.

By using a similar layout on each slide, the audience will be able to quickly make a connection. If you want to present two connected pieces of information, use this tactic.

From the font to the layout, it’s all basically the same. The main message they’re trying to impart is a lot more impactful to the reader.

If they would have used two wildly different presentation layouts, the message may have been lost.

54. Roundup expert tips into one presentation 

If you are looking for useful insights into the topic of your presentation, talk to some influencers in your niche. These are called “expert roundups” in the content marketing world and they are incredibly shareable.

Plus, they are pretty easy to create and have a great shelf life. In the example above, we talked to a gaggle of marketing experts about what makes a SlideShare great.

55. Use bold & brash colors throughout 

B old colors usually make your presentation template a lot easier to read and remember. Like at this slide deck made by our talented designers, which doesn’t shy away from bright, bold colors.

Want to pick a perfect color palette for your presentation? Read this blog on the do’s and don’ts of infographic color selection .

56. Make your graphs easy to read & interpret 

It should not require a Master’s degree in statistics to understand the graphs that someone uses in a presentation. Instead, the axis should be easy to read, the colors should enforce the point, and the data should be clearly plotted.

For example, in this presentation on slide numbers 14 and 25, the graphs nail all of those tips perfectly.

57. Condense your presentation into a memorable line 

If you can, try condensing your information into a simple one-liner to help the message stick with your audience. In slide number 36 of this presentation, Mika Aldaba does just that and shows that “Facts + Feelings = Data Storytelling.”

He does this again a few times throughout the presentation with other memorable one-liners.

58.  Bring attention to important figures with colorful icons

If you’re including a figure or number on your slides, I’m guessing you want the audience to actually see it.

That’s why I would recommend using an icon or graphic to highlight that figure. Maybe use a color or icon that isn’t used anywhere else in the presentation to make sure it really jumps off the screen.

In the presentation example above, all that’s used is a simple circle to make each figure a focal point. It’s really that easy, but many people leave it out of their presentations.

59. Anchor Your Text With Icons 

Having your text or content floating out in the white space of your presentation is not a good look.

Instead, you should use anchor icons to give the text something to hold onto and draw the audience’s eye. If you need some examples of good anchor icons, check out slide numbers 4, 7 and 9 in this presentation example.

60. Add semi-opaque lettering as a presentation background 

A neat way to keep your slide deck organized is to number your slides or points using semi-opaque lettering in the background.

Then, place your slide content on top of the opaque lettering. This helps your audience know that you are on the same point or idea, plus it just looks really good when done right.

61. Use simple or minimalist borders

An easy way to class up your slides is to put a border around your text. Take this presentation from Venngage that uses a couple of different types of borders to make their slides look professional.

Plus it helps keep all of your content contained on the slide!

62. Feature one idea per slide

Nothing is worse than a confusing, cluttered slide. Instead of trying to pack a bunch of ideas into one slide, focus on one core idea on each slide. If you need to flesh the idea out, just make another slide. 

Having trouble condensing your slides? Our presentation design guide can help you summarize your presentations and convey a singular idea with a clear focus.

63. Keep your style consistent with your brand 

You might be tempted to switch up the style of your creative presentations each time, but think again. If your brand is known for fun and lighthearted content, like Officevibe, let that be your style throughout all of the presentations you publish under that brand. This will make your slide decks recognizable and will enforce your brand’s message .

64. Use accent fonts to emphasize important numbers

Some people hate pie charts with a passion, but I think they are perfect for presentations. Especially if you want to bring attention to a figure or percentage point .

In this simple example, the pie charts are used to visualize each figure in an interesting way. Plus the pie charts fit the circular and fun theme of the rest of the presentation very well.

65. Use patterned and textured presentation backgrounds

Source  

Adding some subtle textures, icons or shapes to the presentation background can help make your slides more interesting. This is especially effective when you are only showing one point per slide, because it makes the slide design less sparse.

You can even switch up the colors on your shapes or textures to match the theme of the slide like DesignMantic did in this presentation.

66. Illustrate complex or confusing concepts with icons 

Ideally, you don’t want every slide in your deck to just be text. Instead, switch things up every few slides by using just pictures.

This slide deck by Gluwa uses icons to create little diagrams to illustrate their presentation ideas. Their slides still communicate concepts to the audience, but in a new way.

67. Overlay stock photos with color 

One problem many people encounter when creating a presentation or slide decks are finding photos with a consistent style. An easy way to edit photos to make them consistent is to add a transparent color overlay. In this example, Change Sciences uses a blue overlay on all of their photos. Plus, the color you choose can also help convey a particular mood.

68. Use black and white blocks 

An easy way to make your text pop, particularly on a photo background, is to use white font on a black blog background (and vise-versa). Check out this slide deck by Abhishek Shah, which uses this trick in an effective way.  

Now if you want to become a better leader this year, check out some of our favorite leadership infographics .

69. Use photos with similar filters 

Using a bunch of photos with wildly different filters can be jarring in a business presentation. To maintain a consistent flow, use photos with a similar filter and color saturation.

Take a look at this example from HubSpot across slide numbers 1-6 and you can see what I mean.

70. Visualize your points with diagrams 

Sometimes the best way to get your point across is to throw some diagrams into the presentation mix. But be sure to make is something that the audience can pick up on in three to five seconds tops.

For example, Jan Rezab uses a diagram to illustrate what takes up time in our lives on slide numbers 4, 5, 7 and 9!

71. Get experts to share tips

If you want to provide even more value to your audience than you can offer yourself, why not call in some expert reinforcement? See what experts in your field have to say on the topic of your presentation and include their tips and insights. Plus you can hijack their influence and expand your audience fairly quickly. 

72. Mimic a popular presentation style 

Uber’s pitch deck helped them raise millions of dollars in venture capital eventually leading to the glorious moment when they IPOed this year.

Aside from our sleek design upgrade (hey, we love good design!), this pitch deck template is the exact same one that Uber used to go from Idea to IPO.

And who knows? Maybe you might start the next Uber. But to raise money, you will need to create flawless business pitch decks to impress investors and raise those dollars.

73. Plan your presentation idea ahead of time

I know that minimalist designs are all the rage this year, but there is a big difference between a well-thought-out minimalist design and a lazy design without the finish touches. The same goes for a cluttered design with too many things going on at once.

That’s why it’s worth it to take the time to really plan out your presentation ideas and design concepts. Take this slide deck about storytelling by HighSpark. A quick glance will tell you that they put a lot of thought into designing their slides.

74.  Use tables to compare your brand to the competition in sales presentations/pitch decks

There are a lot of ways to visually compare similar things in this day and age. You could use a comparison infographic , or even a venn diagram!

However, when it comes to presentations I think that the simple table is best. Especially if you are comparing more than two things, like in this presentation example.

With a table, you can clearly lay out all the pros and cons of each idea, brand or topic without it being overwhelming to the audience. Plus, virtually everyone knows how to follow a table, so your information will be easy to consume.  

See more examples of the best pitch decks .

75. Blend icons & content effortlessly

Usually, icons are used as eye-catching objects detectors or anchors for text in a slideshow. But they can be used for so much more than that!

Like in this marketing presentation from Constant Contact they are very large but do not distract from the content.

76. Make your audience want more 

This tactic has been used by everyone since the idea of marketing was invented (or close to that). In this presentation example called “100 Growth Hacks, 100 Days” the creator only shows the audience the first 10 days of it and then uses a call to action at the end of the presentation to encourage them to seek out the rest.

The only risk with these kinds of presentation ideas is if your initial content is not great, you can’t expect your audience to seek out more information.

77. Use memes (for real, though) 

Usually, memes do not have a place in a serious business setting, so maybe don’t use them for formal presentations. But if you’re covering a lighter topic, or if you’re going for a fun presentation that will connect with your audience, don’t be afraid to throw a meme or two into the mix.

The audience immediately knows what you are trying to say when you use a popular meme in your presentation. For example, on slide number 7, the creator uses a meme to show that it will be hard to create great content

78.  Include a slide that introduces your team in pitch decks

In this presentation example, the creators decided to include their team on a slide. I think it’s a great gesture.

Showing your team can help the audience put a face to your brand and make the whole company feel more genuine. So if there is a team that has helped you get where you are today, give them some recognition!

79. Feature a complementary color palette

Even though I am not a formally trained designer, I still understand that proper color usage is the base of any good design. Although not all of the tenets of color theory work great for presentations, complementary colors are always a great pick.

Take a look at the color usage in this business presentation from Gary Vaynerchuk below . The purple and Snapchat yellow, which are complementary colors, look fantastic and the content jumps off the screen.

80. Use a heavy or bold font 

The very back of the room should be able to read your content if you are giving a group presentation. To ensure that your entire audience can read the slides I would not only use a large font, but also use a heavy font.  If you are confused by what I mean by a heavy font take a look at this unique presentation example by Slides That Rock.

81. Do the math for your audience

If you are going to use a graph in your presentation to compare data you should do the match for your audience. Do not make them do the calculations in their head because you will quickly lose their attention. For example, on slide number 5 the people at Sickweather lay out exactly what figures they want the audience to take from the slide.  

82. Use unique colors for different sections

The example below has 145 slides but it does not feel overwhelming or confusing.

That’s because each section has a different corresponding color, which makes it easier to flip through the slide deck and find a particular part.

83.  Give your presentation a catchy title that anyone can remember

What I really love about the presentation example above is that it features a catchy tagline on the second slide–“The 3S Framework.” It’s simple but it works!

This motto helps outline the structure of the presentation, and each slide referring back to it. Plus, the tagline will give the audience something to latch onto and remember from the presentation.

84. White backgrounds are not always bad 

A lot of people think that plain white background is a boring presentation faux pas. So the first thing they do is add color or image, which is not a bad thing at all.

But I also think that when used correctly, like in this example, plain white backgrounds can lead to beautiful presentations.

85. Split the header text from the body text

This idea is very similar to the one-two punch tactic that I talked about above, but it spreads the content over two slides as opposed to a single slide.

Use this design choice when you have fairly easy to follow presentations, like the one below from Steve Young. I know that this is effective because it allows the audience to focus on the main point before he drives it home with the supporting details.

86. Feature circle image frames 

I am a big fan of the design choices that Frank Delmelle uses in this slide deck about content strategy. He uses circles as his main design motif and frames his images in circles as well.

87. Talk directly to your audience 

This slideshow tops out at 70 slides but it’s a breeze to flip through. That’s because the creator, Ian Lurie, decided to present it in the form of a conversation instead of a classic slide deck.

While each slide only has one or two sentences, it flows just like a friendly chat. He also includes the necessary pauses, breaks and other conversational tics that helps make it even more convincing.

88. Illustrated icons are key this year 

Icons add a fun and functional element to your designs. In this presentation by Iryna Nezhynska, they use illustrated icons to make a potentially intimidating topic seem manageable.

89. Highlight key numbers and percentages 

Surprising percentages have the ability to excite and shock an audience. To make the percentages on your slides even more impactful, present them in a different color or font than the rest of the text.

In the presentation example above, Contently uses that exact tactic to bring more attention to key numbers.

90. Use a gradient as your presentation background 

Just like bold color schemes, gradients are a current social media graphic design trend . They may feel retro to some, but I believe they will be around well into the future.  

Gradients are perfect for presentation backgrounds because they are so versatile and eye-catching. I mean, you can literally create a gradient with any colors you can think of! And they look a lot more interesting than a simple flat background.

So embrace the future and use a gradient in your next presentation!

91. Track the steps in a process 

In this example, the creators from O.C. Tanner add a very interesting feature to their slides, starting on slide number 6. If you take a look at this business presentation template, you will see that they number the steps in a process and track which step they’re on at the bottom of the slides.

92. Use mind blowing font pairings 

The creator of this slide deck uses at least 10 different types of fonts. And it looks fantastic because they know that one font choice is boring. But this does not mean that you should use a bunch of random fonts–pick font pairs that play well together and keep your font choices for different types of information consistent throughout the presentation.

93. Make your ideas as obvious as possible 

Your audience shouldn’t be guessing at what you mean. That is why I think that this presentation example from In a Rocket is so powerful because they make the information easy to digest.

Learning to code can be challenging, but they break the information down with simple diagrams and clear examples. Heck, I have not touched CSS in a few years and I could still follow what they were instructing.

94. Use images that will actually scale 

A large mistake that you can make in your slide deck is using low-quality images. They may look great on your computer, but as soon as the slides are put up on a screen, the low quality will show. In this example by ThoughtWorks, all of their presentation background images look great and will scale well to a bigger screen. And that is even after the image compression that LinkedIn most likely does!

95. Take risks with your presentation layout

I honestly was blown away the first time I saw this presentation because it capitalized on such a risky design idea. The creators from Weekdone literally turned their presentation into an 8-Bit video game. A nd if you are looking for something that will stick with your audience, I would take a few creative cues from them!

96. Seriously, you better use memes 

In this day and age memes are mainstream, so why wouldn’t you use them in a creative presentation? These do not have to be the coolest meme that all the hip kids are sharing, they can be some of the classics. Like the one that Dana DiTomaso uses on slide 16 to emphasize that it’s a trap!

97. Follow a clear design rhythm

I really like how this presentation introduced each new point in three or four steps, using the same design. It gave the presentation a rhythm that flowed almost like a song!

I would recommend using this approach if you have to introduce multiple points per slide.

98. Use LOTS of icons

If you have made it this far in the list you have already probably seen how effective icons are in presentations. They are the perfect way to support your ideas and make your presentation more pleasing to the eyes.

For example, take a look at all the icons SlideShop uses in this presentation. Almost every slide has at least one icon and a few have more than ten!

99. Give each slide its own spark

I know this goes against earlier points I had about creating a cohesive theme in your presentation layout, but everyone knows that rules are made to be broken (if you can do it better)!

In this slide deck, the team at Officevibe literally created different designs for all 27 of their slides. And to top it off, each of the designs fit the quotes they used extremely well.

100. Use LARGE header cards 

An easy way to stick to that “one piece of content on each slide rule” is to use header cards. They are basically the header that you would normally use in a blog post or article, but it gets is own slide before the content. Here is an example of that idea in the real world in this presentation from Brian Downard.

101. Ask your audience questions 

I think one of the most common elements I saw in all the slide decks was that they asked the audience questions. You can use questions to engage with your audience and get them thinking a bit harder about the topic. The Site By Norex team did an exceptional job of this when they explored what the topic of what makes up a brand.

102. Introduce yourself and your brand 

I would say that a majority of presentations that I looked at in this list just jumped right into the content without an introduction to the author or brand in the actual slide deck.

This introduction is very important because it establishes your credentials from the beginning, especially if someone is just reading the slide deck. In this example from Losant, they do just that by spending the first few slides telling the audience who they are.

103. Mix up your mediums 

Finally, this slide deck effectively marries two very distinct content forms together: digital images and hand-drawn illustrations. In this example, Freshdesk uses the timeless classic of a comic strip, Calvin & Hobbes, in something so modern to inform the audience in a fun way.

104. Show off your credentials 

Just like with any piece of content, people are more likely to believe what you are saying if they know what your company does. That is why I really like when people insert their qualifications right into the presentation slides. Just like Andreas von der Heydt, from Amazon, did at the beginning of this presentation about thinking big.  

105. Highlight key data points 

If you are presenting a chart or graph on a dry topic, I would recommend using a single color to highlight the most important data point. For example, the investment firm a16z uses orange to highlight the data points they want their audience to focus on in each of their charts.

Check out some examples of how to highlight your key information in bar charts .

106. Show your audience where to find more information 

A lot of people end their presentations by literally just running out of slides, and that is the wrong way to do it. Instead, CBInsights consistently pushes their readers towards another piece of content at the end. This is also where you can insert a call to action!

107. Tell your origin story

  Source

This idea is kinda similar to showing off your company qualifications at the beginning of your presentation. But with this approach, you are trying to make an emotional connection with your audience instead of just showing off accolades.

And Rand from Moz does this extremely well in the presentation example above.

108. Use one focused visual 

This presentation uses a central visual of a structure, with each slide moving down the levels of the structure. This is incredibly powerful because the entire presentation is about sinking your company, and the visual they designed mirrors that idea perfectly. Using one focus visual also makes your slide deck design cohesive.

109. Don’t take presentation design too seriously

Sometimes we get caught up trying to make the perfect presentation and it ends up making us crazy!

But in this presentation example, Jesse Desjardins uses a mix of wit and hilarious retro images to create a memorable and light-hearted presentation.

110. Use size to your advantage 

I am a big fan of using bubble charts and other charts that use size to compare two pieces of data. That is why I like this pitch deck from the ShearShare team that utilizes a size-based chart on slide number 9. The chart is used to illustrate the massive growth potential in their industry.

111. Split section headers from the main content with different background colors 

In this presentation, Seth Familian uses alternating colors in a very interesting way. For each of the title slides, he uses a black color background, but for the content slides he uses a white background.

This helped the readers follow along and comprehend what was on the page even faster. And when you are presenting to hundreds of different types of people, this can make or break your presentation.  

112.  Have a conversation with your audience 

Take a conversational tone in your presentation is a great way to encourage your audience to participate.

In this slide deck example, we presented a simple storyline and use questions to engage with the audience throughout. And it helped create a flow throughout the  presentation template  that is easy to follow.

113.  Include your branding throughout your presentation ideas

Another thing that people seem to forget when they are working on a presentation is to include their business’s branding. You honestly never know where your work is going to be shared, so it is important to make sure people know it’s yours. HubSpot does an outstanding job of this on all their presentations, as you can see in the bottom left corner of each slide.

Plus you have spent a ton of time creating your  brand guidelines , might as well use them.

114.  Include multiple slides to build to your main point

Try using multiple slides to build to your main point. This helps you walk through the components of one overarching point while also building suspense. In this slide deck, the creator uses 6 slides to build up to one main point, adding a new illustration to the diagram on each slide.

115.  Split the difference 

Use either the left or right side of the slide to hold your text and the opposite to display an image. If you are using a photo or graphic as the main background in your slides, this is a great way to keep things organized. 

116. There are millions of fonts out there…use them

Hey, I love simple fonts just as much as the next guy, but sometimes you need to step up your font game to stand out. For example, WebVisions uses a very gritty, probably custom font in their unique presentation that fits the topic extremely well. Take a look!

117.  Build your presentation content around icons 

Try using icons as the focal points of your presentation layout. This example from Omer Hameed  uses icons to draw the audience’s eyes  right to the middle of the presentation, where the main points and headers are located.  

118.  Mix up font style to emphasize important points

If you would like to draw some extra attention to a certain word or idea,  switch up the font  to one that is bolder. For example, in this oldie but goodie presentation from HubSpot they use a heavy sans-serif font to highlight ideas, as opposed to the serif font for the other text.

119.  Add personal touches to your presentation

If you want to create a truly unique presentation, add personal touches. In the slide numbers 6-13 from this presentation, the creator adds something to their design that no one else could ever have: they use original drawings they did themselves.

120.  Harness the power of your own brand colors

Sometimes people forget that they already have a battle-tested color palette that they can use in their  brand colors . I try to incorporate one of our brand colors in most of my designs and it makes so much easier to choose colors.

In this simple presentation example, Spitfire Creative used a palette that had both of their brand colors throughout the slideshow.

121.  Used dark-colored blocks to highlight words

I have seen this trick used in a lot of presentations and it works well. Highlight certain words or phrases by laying them overtop a colored rectangle. Take slide number 7 in this presentation example as a great guide. Use it to bring attention to a saying or idea you really want your audience to remember.

122.  Show the audience your mug 

This presentation example comes from the same presentation as a previous one, but it was too good not to share. Throughout the slides, you will see Rand from Moz pop up to add a human element to the design. Using an image of your team or yourself can put the audience at ease and make it easier to connect with the presenter.

123.  Include a helpful table of contents 

I only saw this presentation idea used a few times throughout my research, but I believe it should be used a lot more. A table of contents will help the audience know what to expect and keep their focus throughout. Especially if you are creating a presentation that is a bit longer than normal.

124.  Do not post just screenshots, do more

Screenshots of a program or app are very common in any blog post, but I think you can do a little better when it comes to presentations.

So instead of just posting a boring screenshot, add a little more to the slide by using illustrations and product shots. If you are not sure what I am talking about, just check out how great the screenshots look at slide numbers 7 and 8 in this presentation.

125. Highlight keywords using BOLD color 

Here’s another slide deck that uses different colors and blocks to highlight keywords. If you are going to use text-heavy slides, then make sure the key points are easy to pick out. Take this slide deck: starting in slide number 4, they highlight exactly what they want you to take away from the text on each slide!

Enough presentation ideas for you?

You made it! I applaud you for making it through all those presentations. Hopefully, now you have a few nifty presentation ideas ready for when you need them.

The next step is to create a presentation that will captivate a meeting room, an amphitheater, and even the world (hey, it doesn’t hurt to dream big).

How to Choose the Best Presentation Topic: Step-by-Step Process

Picking the right presentation topic is like winning half the battle before you even begin. After selecting your topic, you’ll focus on content creation and presentation design. If you need help with presentation designs, consider Design Shifu , offering dedicated designers for your needs. You get unlimited designs for a flat monthly fee, which includes not only presentation designs but also services like infographics, social media designs, logo design, etc. Now, back to the topic selection. You need to strike a balance between creativity and relevance to make an impact on the right audience. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you choose a compelling topic:

How : Conduct surveys or interviews to understand your audience’s interests, needs, and knowledge level. Example : For a group of professionals, consider topics related to their industry trends or challenges.

How : Reflect on your strengths, experiences, and knowledge areas. Example : With a digital marketing background, a topic like Effective Social Media Strategies for Business Growth might be ideal.

How : Stay updated on current events, industry trends, and popular discussions. Example : In technology, a presentation on The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Everyday Life can be timely and interesting.

How : Identify challenges your audience faces and offer solutions. Example : For entrepreneurs, Overcoming Common Startup Challenges can be highly relevant.

How : Relate your topic to the audience’s daily lives or work. Example : A presentation on Time Management Hacks for Busy Professionals can be relatable and valuable.

How : Consider using a storytelling approach, case studies, or interactive elements. Example : Instead of Benefits of Healthy Living, structure it as a personal journey with before-and-after anecdotes.

How : Clarify your presentation’s purpose (educate, persuade, entertain) and choose a topic that aligns. Example : For inspiration, Unleashing Creativity in the Workplace could be impactful.

How : Pitch your topic ideas to a small group or colleagues for feedback. Example : Present brief overviews of two potential topics and ask for input on which generates more interest.

How : Incorporate visuals to enhance your presentation or get help from presentation design experts like Design Shifu . Example : A presentation on The Power of Data Visualization can include compelling charts and graphics.

How : Choose a topic you are genuinely passionate about. Example : If passionate about environmental issues, a presentation on Sustainable Practices in Everyday Life will be engaging and authentic.

Need a good presentation topic? Here are hundreds of them.

Get your team on prezi – watch this on demand video.

Anete Ezera November 04, 2022

If you’re looking for good topics for presentations, you’ve landed on the right page. In this article, you’ll find plenty of good presentation topics, tips on choosing the most suitable presentation topic for you, and essential design elements to make your presentation a success. 

Many factors go into an excellent presentation. You need to have confident body language and engage your audience to hold their attention. You also need eye-catching visual aids like images, data visualizations, GIFs, and others (all of which you can find in Prezi ), not to mention a great opening to grab attention and a strong closing line to stay memorable. However, the most essential aspect of your presentation is the topic. It’s the core of your presentation, so it has to be strong, insightful, attention-grabbing, and appealing to yourself and your audience in order to evolve into a successful presentation everyone will love. 

How to choose a good presentation topic

There are millions of topics you could create a presentation on, but what defines a good presentation topic? If you’re struggling to either come up with a good topic for a presentation or you can’t decide between multiple ones, here are a few questions you should ask yourself before choosing a topic. 

What’s the goal of your presentation? 

When you’re choosing a presentation topic, consider the meaning behind it. Ask yourself what the purpose of talking about this topic is, and what you want to say about it. Whatever topic you choose to present, the conclusion needs to provide a takeaway or lesson you want to communicate to your audience. A meaningful goal will make your presentation more memorable.  

Are you interested in the topic?

If you’re not interested in the presentation topic, others won’t be curious either. Interest, enthusiasm, and passion enrich your presentation and are noticeable when presenting. Interest shines through and inspires others to find the topic as fascinating as you do. Think about the last time you saw someone sharing something they were passionate about – their excitement drew people in to pay closer attention to what they were saying. 

When choosing a topic, you need to find it or a particular angle of it interesting for yourself. For example, perhaps you’re not a pop music enthusiast, but you’re passionate about studying cultural phenomena. In this case, you can talk about pop music’s influence on early 2000s youth culture. 

Will your audience find this topic relatable? 

While you have to find the topic you’re presenting interesting, you also have to think about your audience. When choosing a subject, consider your audience’s background in terms of demographics, interests, culture, and knowledge level about the topic. Think about what others will find fascinating and relevant, so they’re not bored or confused during your presentation.

Do you have prior experience or knowledge about this topic?

Personal experiences are always great to share in a presentation, providing your unique perspective for anyone listening. While you can easily prepare your presentation based on a quick Google search, it won’t make the same lasting impact on your audience. Choose a presentation topic you have some prior knowledge about, or have an interesting opinion you can share with others. It’ll make your presentation more engaging and memorable.

Ideas for good presentation topics

It’s not easy to come up with a good presentation topic from scratch. It’s much easier to get inspired from other good presentation topics to build your topic on. Whether you’re looking for presentation ideas for work, about me presentation ideas, unique or easy presentation topics, you’ll find them all here.

Without further ado, here are some good presentation topics to choose from or get inspired by.

How to create a good presentation 

If you know what you want to present on, it’s time to create an impactful presentation that grabs everyone’s attention. Presentation design plays a crucial role in how your presentation is received and remembered. To stand out and leave a memorable impact on your audience, create a Prezi presentation. Instead of a linear, slide-based presentation, offer an engaging and dynamic storytelling experience to your audience. Breathe life into your presentation with motion, zoom, and spatial relationships. When creating your presentation, consider the following three essential elements: 

Visuals play a significant part in presentation design. They evoke emotions, make a memorable impact, and give more context to the story. Not to mention, 65% of people are visual learners , so visual aids are helpful when explaining a complex topic. 

In your presentation, include different types of visuals, such as images, videos, GIFs, and stickers, all of which you can find in Prezi’s content library. When selecting your visuals, consider what’s relevant and brings additional value to the story. Only add what’s meaningful and necessary. A video or image at the right place and time will enrich the viewing experience and make your presentation more memorable. 

The layout of your presentation is the structure of your story. It’ll help you introduce the topic, intrigue your audience, and unfold the layers of your topic one by one until you disclose your main arguments and summarize the presentation. A good presentation layout has a hierarchical, chronological, or logical flow that leads the viewer from start to finish. 

If you’re creating a Prezi presentation, you can create a dynamic storytelling experience by experimenting with your layout. Instead of going from slide to slide, you can zoom in and out of topics and experiment with different shapes, animations, and effects that draw the viewer into your story world. Here’s an example of a Prezi presentation with a great storytelling layout:

Author: Lydia Antonatos

Data visualizations can elevate your presentation from being a good one to a great one. By providing data behind your arguments, you’ll appear more trustworthy and confident in your audience’s eyes. 

Add charts, graphs, interactive maps, and more to your presentations with Prezi Design. You can choose from a wide selection of charts and maps to illustrate your data. With interactive elements, you’ll be able to engage your audience and make a memorable impact. 

Engaging visuals, a well-structured layout, and relevant data visualizations will provide a great starting base to create a memorable presentation. Discover other tips and tricks that make your presentation effective and capture people’s attention.

10 Presentation Tips for Engineers to Succeed in Presenting their Projects

Engineers prepare presentations for various purposes on changing occasions, whether for an exhibition, internal meeting, or customers. Preparing an engaging and compelling slide deck is not child’s play. It demands expertise, sweat, and considerable time to prepare. That is why it is necessary to prepare captivating and persuasive PowerPoint presentations for your projects. In this article, you will learn about the mistakes that engineers usually commit while presenting, and some actionable tips to make your next presentation a complete success.

Repeated mistakes during presentations

While delivering short or long presentations, one of the common mistakes that engineers usually make is making the slides too text-heavy. Regardless of the technicality of the topic of the presentation, its slides must serve the purpose of visual aid only. It should facilitate the presenter in delivering his speech in a way that makes it easier for him to deliver his message to the desired audience. Otherwise, lengthy and text-heavy presentations will eventually lose the listeners’ interest and you will not achieve your purpose effectively.

Another mistake that is commonly seen in presentations is the usage of unprofessional and small fonts which makes it very hard to read for the audience. The absence of a storytelling approach is also a repeated mistake by engineers while delivering their offers, ideas, and thoughts on their desired topics. To avoid these mistakes and possibly more, look at the 10 below-mentioned presentation tips for engineers to succeed in their projects.

10 Actionable Presentation Tips for Engineers to Succeed in their Projects    

You can follow these 10 tips to succeed in your next PowerPoint Presentation related to any engineering project.

1. Make Slides that Contain Less Written Content

Try using visually appealing slides, with metaphors and graphics. Use text in simple bullet points and short lines only. As an engineer, you must have much to explain, but listeners usually get bored with the lengthy and complex text containing slides. Use simple and precise language while writing your text so that when a listener wishes to read the slide himself, he gets the point easily. 

2. Use Slides as a Visual Aid Only

Your slides work as kind of short notes that you keep with you to get along during your speech or presentation. Don’t start narrating each and everything that is written on a slide. This will make the audience think that you may not have a sound grasp of the discussed topic.

Instead of doing this, try explaining bullets from your slides. If a slide contains a statistical infographic about any operational data, try explaining that infographic in detail to the listeners in easy language. For example, if you need to present the project Strengths, Weaknesses, Threats and Opportunities of your engineering project, you can use a visual SWOT slide to show this information. This will make your authority on the stage strong and your audience will also remain engaged throughout your speech.

3. Use Slide Master to Define the Presentation Layout

In PowerPoint, the Slide Master tool allows you to define and use all general slide characteristics like color, slide layout, font size, name, date, logo, etc., simultaneously. One of the striking features of Slide Master is that you can incorporate universal changes into your existing and future slides by altering the features in the tool.

4. Leverage an Eye-Catching Template for Your Slides

Your slides’ background is not always meant to be white. You can alter the color, and texture of slides per your requirements. Do you want to dive into the ocean of thousands of professionally crafted premade templates? You can use an engineering PowerPoint template to build up your presentation from a ready-made design or download other project management templates and engineering projects.

5. Use the Right Fonts in your Slides

Try using a clear-looking font format like Sans Serif font, Segoe UI, Open Sans or Arial as compared to fonts like Times New Roman. If the size of the presentation room is too big, this means that the distance between the presenter and listeners will also be greater. That is why it is recommended to use font sizes up to 24 or even 32 points for better visibility and clarity, especially when presenting in an auditorium but also when presenting online (when sometimes participants log in from their mobile devices with smaller screen sizes). Pay heed to the contrast of the text color and background color of your PowerPoint presentation. For example, if the text color is purple and the slide’s background is black, it will be hard for the listeners to read the text from the slide.

6. Incorporate Infographics, Pictures, and Other Visual Elements into Slides

It is a known fact that pictures are more engaging than contextual content. Use pictures wherever necessary to illustrate your complex engineering arguments and solution.

If you are trying to show a trend or rate of one quantity compared to another, try using graphs and data visualizations. Graphs are an exceptional tool to facilitate the listeners to reach a quick conclusion. You can also use tables, charts, infographics, and video presentations depending on your needs and requirements. Animating 3D Models is also a great way to captive the audience attention. See, for example, the 3D motor model being rotated below>

7. Use Storytelling Approach

If you want your message to be properly delivered to an audience, you must resonate with your listeners’ minds. For this purpose, you need to engage your audience with a storytelling approach through which you can share your engineering arguments, ideas, and concepts through personal experiences and stories that are more relatable to the listeners. Stories create excitement, and suspense and ultimately develop an interest in the listeners. This simple technique can easily win a crowd and achieve your purpose.

8. Control your Body Language During Presentations 

Presentations are about more than just verbal communication. Here, non-verbal communication also matters a lot. Your body can also convey a strong message to the listeners if you know how to properly use your posture and gesture. Use facial expressions like smiling to engage your audience and make them comfortable with you. It would help if you stood upright while presenting as this shows you are confident. You do not need to be tense during your presentation otherwise you may start mumbling while speaking on the stage. Giving short pauses during your presentation is also a good thing; by doing this, you may give your audience some time to think about the ideas just discussed.

9. Maintain Eye Contact with Your Audience

Try maintaining eye contact while delivering your engineering presentation. It will help you engage and keep listeners attentive and responsive to your arguments, concepts, and ideas. Don’t stare at someone for too long as it can make him/her nervous. Look at a person for a while and then move your face toward another person. Start repeating this process on random listeners and try to cover the entire crowd. 

10. Rehearse your Presentation 

Practice makes a man perfect. Try making your engineering presentation a top-notch one by practicing it in front of a mirror, your friends, family members, and colleagues. This way, you will get valuable feedback about certain weak areas and loopholes in your presentation delivery method. With the passage of time, you will improve and be able to stand on the stage confidently, share your thoughts and arguments effectively and influence your listeners successfully.

Final Words

Engineers keep preparing presentations for clients, exhibitions, internal meetings, or other purposes regularly. Preparing effective and engaging presentations is a tough task, and one may need proper guidance regarding preparing and delivering persuasive engineering presentations. By avoiding the aforementioned mistakes while developing a presentation, an engineer can easily make his slides worth noticing. Moreover, tips like making your slides less context-heavy, using slides as a visual aid only, using slide master, and incorporating tempting Free PowerPoint Templates , including graphs, charts, infographics, and more, can also make an engineer achieve success in his/her project. Additional tips like incorporating storytelling approaches into slides, maintaining eye contact with the audience, controlling your body language, and rehearsing your presentation consistently can also help you outshine your competitors.

Applying AI to the SDLC: New Ideas and Gotchas! - Leveraging AI to Improve Software Engineering

Tracy Bannon discusses using Generative AI in software engineering with AI-assistance to meet the speed and quality of end-users demand.

Tracy Bannon is a Passionate Software Architect and Change Agent who writes, speaks, teaches, and practices her craft every day. As an accomplished software architect, engineer, and researcher, she has worked across commercial and government clients. She focuses on bringing techniques to modern software practices including applying AI/ML/Generative AI to the software development lifecycle

About the conference

Software is changing the world. QCon London empowers software development by facilitating the spread of knowledge and innovation in the developer community. A practitioner-driven conference, QCon is designed for technical team leads, architects, engineering directors, and project managers who influence innovation in their teams.

Bannon: I've been navigating the city. It really got me thinking about something. It got me thinking about the fact that I could use my phone to get anywhere I needed to go. It got me to think about how ubiquitous it is that we can navigate easily anywhere we want to go. It's built into our cars. I rode bicycle, and I have a computer on my road bike. We always know where I am. You can buy a little chip now and you can sew it into the back of your children's sweatshirts, and things, and always know where they're at. It's really ubiquitous. It didn't start out that way.

When I learned to drive, I learned to drive with a map. As a matter of fact, I was graded on how well I could refold the map, obviously a skill that I haven't worried about since then. I was also driving during the digital transition when all of that amazing cartography information was digitized. Somebody realized, we can put a frontend on this, and we can ask people where they're starting, where they're going. Then we can give them step by step, a place to go. They still had to print it out. If you happened to be the first person who was in the passenger seat, you got to be the voice, "In 100 meters, take a left, the ramp onto the M4."

It wasn't long until we had special hardware. Now we had a Garmin, or we had a TomTom. It was mixing the cartography information. It was mixing the voice aspect, and was mixing that hardware together. It was fantastic. When my children started to drive, they started with a TomTom, but I made them learn to read a map, because if you can see what it says there, the signal was lost. Now, it's everywhere. It is ubiquitous for us. In 2008, the iPhone was released, the iPhone 3G, and it had that sensor in it. Now everywhere that we went, we have the ability to tell where we are. We can track our packages. We can track when the car is coming to pick us up. We can track all sorts of different things. We've just begun to expect that. What does that have to do with AI, with software engineering? That's because I believe that this is where we're at right now. I think we're at the digital transition when it comes specifically to generative AI and leveraging that to help us to build software.

My name is Tracy Bannon. I like word clouds. I am a software architect. I am a researcher now. That's been something newer in my career over the last couple of years. I work for a company called the MITRE Corporation. We're a federally funded research and development. The U.S. government realized that they needed help, they needed technologists that weren't trying to sell anything. I get paid to talk straight.

AI in Software Engineering

Let's go back in time everybody, 2023, where were you when you heard that 100 million people were using ChatGPT? I do remember that all of a sudden, my social feed, my emails, newsletters, everything said AI. Chronic FOMO. It's almost as though you expect to go walking down the aisle in the grocery and see AI sticker slapped on the milk and on the biscuits and on the cereal, because obviously it's everywhere, it's everything. Please, don't get swept up in the hype. I know here at QCon and with InfoQ, we prefer to talk about crossing the chasm. I'm going to use the Gartner Hype Cycle for a moment.

The words are beautiful. Are we at the technology trigger when it comes to AI in software engineering? Are we at the peak of inflated expectations, the trough of disillusionment? Have we started up the slope of enlightenment yet? Are we yet at the plateau of productivity? Where do you think we are? It's one of the few times that I agree with Gartner. We are at the peak of inflated expectations. Granted, Gartner is often late to the game. By the time they realize it, oftentimes I believe that we're further along the hype cycle. What's interesting here is, 2 to 5 years to the plateau of productivity.

How many people would agree with that? Based on what I'm seeing, based on my experience, based on research, I believe that's correct. What we do, as software architects, as software engineers is really complex. It's not a straight line in any decision that we're making. We use architectural tradeoff. I love the quote by Grady Booch. The entire history of software engineering is one of rising levels of abstraction. We've heard about that. We've heard about the discussions of needing to have orchestration platforms of many different layers, of many different libraries that are necessary to abstract and make AI, generative AI in specific, helpful.

Where Can AI Be Used with DevSecOps?

I have the luxury of working with about 200 of the leading data scientists and data engineers in the world. I sat down with a couple of them and said, "I'm going to QCon. This is the audience. How would you explain to me all of the different types of AI that exist, the ML universe beyond generative AI?" Did we draw frameworks? We had slide after slide. I came back too and said, let's take this instead like Legos and dump them on the table. What's important to take away from this slide, is that generative AI is simply one piece of a massive puzzle.

There are many different types of AI, many types of ML, many different types of algorithms that we can and should be using. Where do you think AI can be used within DevSecOps, within the software development lifecycle? The first time I published this was in October of last year, and there are at least a half a dozen additional areas that have been added to that during this time. What's important is that generative AI is only one piece of the puzzle here. We've been using AI, we've been using ML for years. How do we get after digital twins, if we're dealing with cyber-physical systems? We're not simply generating new scripts and new codes. We're leveraging deterministic algorithms for what we need to do. Remember that generative AI is non-deterministic. With it, though, it has groundbreaking potential, generative AI in specific, groundbreaking potential. It has limitations and it has challenges.

Treat generative AI like a young apprentice. I don't mean somebody who's coming out of college. I mean that 15-year-old, brings a lot of energy, and you're excited to have them there. Occasionally they do something right, and it really makes you happy. Most of the time, you're cocking your head to the side and saying, what were you thinking? We heard that with stories in the tracks especially around AI and ML. Pay very close attention.

I'm going to take you back for a moment, and just make sure that I say to you that this is not just my opinion. This is what the research is showing. There are service providers who have provided AI capabilities who are now making sure that they have all kinds of disclaimers, and they have all kinds of advice for you that they're providing guidance that says, make sure you have humans in the loop. Do you think that generative AI contradicts DevSecOps principles? It does. When I think about traceability, if it's being generated by a black box that I don't know, that's much more difficult.

How about auditability? That's part of DevSecOps. How am I going to be able to audit something that I don't understand where it came from, or the provenance for it? Reproducibility? Anybody ever hit the regenerate button? Does it come back with the same thing? Reproducibility. Explainability, do you understand what was just generated and handed to you? Whether it's a test, whether it's code, whether it's script, whether it's something else, do you understand? Then there's security. We're going to talk a lot about security.

There was a survey of over 500 developers, and of those 500 developers, 56% of them are leveraging AI. Of that 56%, all of them are finding security issues in the code completion or the code generation that they're running into. There's also this concept of reduced collaboration. Why? Why would there be reduced collaboration? If you're spending your time talking to your GAI (Generative AI) friend, and not talking to the person beside you, you're investing in that necessary prompting and chatting.

It has been shown so far, to reduce the collaboration. Where are people using it today for building software? We've spent a lot of time talking about how we can provide it as a capability to end users, but how are we using it to generate software, to build the capabilities we deliver into production? I don't ignore the industry or the commercial surveys, because if you're interviewing or serving hundreds of thousands of people, even tens of thousands of people, I'm not going to ignore that as a researcher. Yes, Stack Overflow friends.

Thirty-seven thousand developers answered the survey, and of that, 44% right now are attempting to use AI for their job. Twenty-five additional percent said they really want to. Perhaps that's FOMO, perhaps not. What are they using it for, of that 44% that are leveraging it? Let me read you some statistics. Eighty-two percent are attempting to generate some kind of code. That's a pretty high number. Forty-eight percent are debugging. Another 34%, documentation. This is my personal favorite, which is explaining the code base. Using it to look at language that already exists. Less than a quarter are using it for software testing.

AI-Assisted Requirements Analysis

This is a true story. This is my story from the January timeframe about how I was able to leverage with my team, AI, to assist us with requirements analysis. What we did was we met with our user base, and we got their permission. "I'm going to talk with you. I'm going to record it. We're going to take those transcriptions, are you ok if I leverage a GPT tool to help us analyze it?" The answer was yes. We also crowd sourced via survey. It was freeform, by and large.

Very little was rationalized using like, or anything along that line. When we fed all of that in through a series of very specific prompts, we were able to uncover some sentiments that were not really as overt as we had thought. There were other things that people were looking for in their requirements. When it comes to requirements analysis, I believe it is strong use of the tool, because you're feeding in your language and you're extracting from that. It's not generating on its own. Things to be concerned about. Make sure you put your prompt into your version control.

Don't just put the prompt into version control, but keep track of what model or what service that you're posting it against. Because as we've heard, as we know, those different prompts react differently with different models. Why would I talk about diverse datasets? The models themselves have been proven to have issues with bias. It's already a leading practice for you to make sure that you're talking to a diverse user group when you're identifying and pulling those requirements out. Now you have that added need that you have to make sure that you are balancing the potentiality that the model has a bias in it. Make sure that your datasets, make sure that the interviews, make sure the people you talk to represent a diverse set. Of course, rigorous testing, humans in the loop.

AI-Assisted Testing Use Cases, and Testing Considerations

I personally like it for test cases. There was some research that was published in the January timeframe that made me take pause. It said that only 47% of organizations have automated their testing. In some of the places where I work where there's cyber-physical systems, when I'm working with the military, I want it to be higher than that. That also means that 53% have manual testing going on. Let's realize and let's be ok with the fact that there's manual testing going on, and let's sit our QA professionals down in front of a chat engine.

Let's make sure that they have their functional requirements, they have their manual test cases, they have their scenarios. That they have their user stories. That they have journey maps. Let them sit down and let them go through Chain-of-Thought prompting, and allow the GPT to be their muse because you will be surprised how well it can really help. Back to Stack Overflow, 55% said that they were interested in somehow using generative AI specifically for testing, yet only 3% trust it. It could be because it is non-deterministic. I bring that up because you can use generative AI to help you with synthetic test data generation. It's not always going to give you anything that is as accurate as you would like. There are some got you's we'll come back to.

One of the got you's is privacy. If you're taking your data, elements of your data, aspects of your data and feeding it into anybody else's subscription model, if you are not self-hosting, and owning it yourself, you could have a data privacy concern. You could also have issues with the integrity of that data. You have to be highly in tune with what's happening with your information if you're sending it out to a subscription service. Also, beware, we've talked about hallucinations. It happens when you generate tests as well, you can have irrelevant tests. I've seen it. I've experienced it. It happens. Back to transparency and explainability. The tests that come forward, the code that comes forward, sometimes it's not as helpful as you'd like it to be.

AI-Assisted Coding

Let's talk about the elephant in the corner. No technical conference would be complete without talking about code generation. When it comes to coding, there's an interesting trend that's happening right now. Major providers are pulling back from calling it code generation to calling it code completion. That should resonate with us. That should point out to us that something is afoot. If they're pulling back from saying code generation to code completion, there's a reason for that. It is amazing when it comes to explaining your existing code base.

Now you have to be ok with exposing your existing code base to whatever that language model is, whether it's hosted or not. Generally, the code that you get out of this thing will be wonderfully structured. It will be well formatted, and occasionally it'll work. There's a study from Purdue University that has shown that when they prompt for software engineering questions, that about 52% of the time, the answers are wrong. That means we're getting inaccurate code generated. We have to be cognizant of it. Remember, this is groundbreaking potential. This is amazing stuff, limitations and challenges. Just go in with eyes wide open. These tools can help to generate code. What it can't do is it can't build software, not yet. Look at the blue arrow, that's what I want you to focus on. That's one of three choices for any one piece of code.

In this instance, I've seen it go as high as six, and you're simply asking for a module, a function, a small tidbit. The person that you see you there is suffering from what we call decision fatigue. Decision fatigue in the past has been studied with medical professionals, military, the judiciary, places where people have to make really important decisions constantly, they're under high pressure, and their ability to make those decisions deteriorates. In what world should we be studying decision fatigue in software engineering? We shouldn't be. In-IDE help can be fantastic when it comes to helping you with that blank page mentality that we get to. It can really help with that. I can tell you, day in and day out, it can cause some fatigue. Groundbreaking potential. Know the limitations, know the challenges.

AI-Assisted Coding Considerations

Some things to be concerned about, or at least to be aware of, considerations. You will see unequal productivity gains with the different individuals who are using it. Somebody new in career, new to the organization will have less individual productivity gains than somebody who's more senior who can look at the code and can understand there's a problem. I see it. I see the problem. Code churn, this is something that a company named GitClear has been studying on GitHub for years. From 2019 until 2023, the code churn value by industry was roughly the same.

What code churn is, is I take that code that I've written or I've helped writing, I check it in, I then check it out. I tinker with it: I check it in, I check it out. There's a problem with it: I check it in, I check it out. Code churn. In 2024, we are on pace to double code churn. Is it caused by generation? Is there correlation? I don't know. We are going to watch that, because that's an interesting number to see rising. The code is less secure. I know people don't want to believe that, it is. I'll tell you a personal story first. Second week of March, I sat through an entire afternoon workshop. I was using GitHub Copilot, good tool. It has some real value. We're using Java code base. I was able, even with what I thought was pretty articulate and elegant prompting, to have OWASP Top 10s right there.

I had my SQL injection right there in front of me, unless I very clearly articulated, don't do this, be aware. That means that the code is less secure, by nature. There was a Stanford study that came out, and that Stanford report clearly demonstrated, it's a security professional's worst nightmare. We tend to think that it's right. We tend to overlook it because it is well formatted. It's almost as though it has authenticity. It's speaking to us. It looks correct, so more issues are sneaking into the code. What's that mean? We need rigorous testing. We need humans in the loop. As a matter of fact, now, we actually need more humans, not fewer humans. Don't worry about losing your job. There's a lot for us to do.

GAI Can Be Unreliable

Generative AI can be unreliable. Pay very close attention. You'll notice that I'm emphasizing the person who has the oversight this time. There was a North Carolina State University study that came out that said that 58% of us when we are doing code reviews, are now doing what's called copping out, means that we only look at the diffs. Why does that matter? I was talking to a team member of mine, his name is Carlton. He's a technical lead, has a beautiful team. One of his Rockstar developers is named Stephen.

These are real people. I asked Carlton, how do you do code reviews for Stephen? He said, I pull it up. I've worked with Stephen for 5 years. I trust his capabilities. I know his competencies. I only look at the diffs. When you have someone new in your organization, new to your team, new to this domain, what do you do with their code changes? I open them up. I studied it. I make sure that they understand what they were doing. I back out into other pieces of the code. I really study it. If Stephen starts to use a code completion tool, or a code generation tool, and there's pressure on him to get something done quickly, do you trust him with the same amount of trust that you had before? Carlton's eyes got pretty big. I'm going to have to not cop out. If you're doing something like pair programming, where you are not necessarily doing the code reviews in the same way, you're going to run a rotate partners more quickly.

You may want to rotate in a domain expert at some point. Consider more frequent rotations. Also, think about bringing together individuals who can help you with more SAST, more static analysis with all of these. There was an announcement from GitLab, they've purchased a tool. They've purchased a corporation that provides SAST because they want to make sure that there's more SAST scanning going on in the DevOps pipeline, going on in our ability to turn out this code because we have to pay closer attention.

If you're generating code, don't generate the tests. If you're generating the tests, don't generate the code. You need to have that independent verification. This is just smart stuff. There can be bias and there can be blind spots. There can also be this really interesting condition that I learned about called overfitting. It's when a model is trained, and there's some noise in the training data, and it causes it to be hyper-focused in one area. What can happen with your tests is that they can be hyper-focused in one area of your code base to the exclusion of other areas. Does that mean to not use generative AI tools? No. It means, be aware. Know the limitations. Prepare for it.

Is Your Organization Prepared to Use Generative AI?

Is your organization ready to use generative AI for software engineering? My question to you is, is your SDLC already in pretty good shape? If it is, you might want to amplify leveraging generative AI. If you have some existing problems, sprinkling some generative AI on top, is probably not a good idea. Let's go back to the basics for just a moment. When I get parachuted into a new organization, into a new team, one of the first questions that I ask is, do you own your path to production? By asking that simple question, it gives me an entire waterfall of cascading other questions to ask.

If you can't make a change and understand quickly how it's going to get fielded, probably has some challenges. That's when I usually tell teams that we need to step back and start to do the minimums. In 2021, during the height of the lockdowns, I attended the DevOps Enterprise Summit with a number of different friends. It was virtual. If any of you attended, there are lots of different tools where you could belly up to the virtual bar. I bellied up to the bar with a friend of mine, actually someone who introduced me to Chris Swan.

My friend Brian Finster, and I, and six or seven other people were arguing and frustrated with one another. Why is everybody telling us that they can't use DevSecOps, that they can't have a CI/CD pipeline? Why are there so many excuses? You know what we'll do? We're going to write down what those minimums are, and we did, minimumcd.org. It's an open source listing, we simply are maintainers of documentation.

Providing people what the minimums are. What are the minimums? What do you need to do before you start sprinkling AI on top? Make sure you're practicing continuous integration. That means, don't leave the code on your desktop overnight. Tell the people on your team, don't leave the code outside the repository, check it in. If it's not done, that's ok, put a flag around it. Put a feature flag around it so that if it does flow forward, it's not going to cause a problem.

Once you check that code in, how does it get into production? The pipeline. The pipeline determines deployability. It determines releasability. How does that magical pipeline do that? Because we as humans sat down and decided what our thresholds were for deployability. Then we codified it into that pipeline. What else is involved? Once that code becomes an electronic asset, it's immutable. Humans don't touch it again. You don't touch the environments. You don't touch anything. Stop touching things. Let the pipeline take care of it. That's a big piece of DevSecOps principles.

It matters. It helps. Whenever you're doing any kind of testing, you want any of the other environments that you're leveraging to be at what's called parity, parity to production. A thing that you can do to get started is to take a look at the DORA metrics. Pick one, you don't have to pick four. Don't bite off more than you can chew. Deployment frequency is not a bad place to start. That QR code will take you to the research site. When you're there, you can also find another tool. It's a quick survey, I think it's four or five questions that'll help you decide which of those metrics to start to track.

Let's talk about the got you's as we're going forward. If you're adding generative AI into your workflow, your workflow is going to change. That means your measurements and your metrics are going to change. If you have people who are really paying attention and looking at your metrics and studying your measurements, let them know that things are going to waver and that you're going to have to train some folks. Be aware that if your processes were in ok shape, people have what I call muscle memory, sometimes they're resistant to change. Does that mean to not do it? No, just means some things to be aware of.

Let's talk about productivity. This drives me frigging batty, because it's perceived productivity that the surveys, that the current research, that the current advertisements are all talking about. You are going to have greater productivity. Personal productivity. It's perceived at this point, by and large, that productivity is a perceived game. It means I'm excited, I got a new tool. This is really cool. This is going to be great. It doesn't necessarily mean that I am dealing with higher-order issues, that I am putting features out at a faster pace with higher quality.

Doesn't necessarily mean that at all. It means I perceive it. We have to give time for there to be equalizing of the perceived gain to real gain. That leads to a really much bigger thing, we measure team productivity, not individual productivity. It's how well does a team put software into production? It's not how fastest Tracy do it alone, it's how fast do we do it as a team. If you're measuring productivity, and you should think about it, I recommend using Dr. Nicole Forsgren's framework. This came out around 2021, with a number of other researchers from Microsoft. What's important is that you see all those human elements that are there.

Satisfaction, we actually need to understand if people feel satisfied with what they're doing to understand their productivity. I met with Nicole, and we're talking about adding in another dimension, kind of throws off the whole SPACE analogy there. We're talking about adding in trust. Why does trust matter? If I'm using traditional AI and ML, and it's deterministic, I can really understand and I can recreate algorithmically, repetitively, again and again, that same value.

Think about a heads-up display for a pilot. I want them to trust what the AI or the ML algorithm has given them. I do that by proving to them again and again that it will be identical, that is the altitude, that is a mountain, you should turn left. Generative AI is by its nature, non-deterministic. It lies to you. Should you trust it? As things change, as we start to use generative AI, we have to understand, are we going to be able to trust it? That's going to give people angst. We're already seeing some beginnings of that. We're going to have to understand, how do we measure productivity going forward? I can't tell you 100%, how that's going to happen yet.

The importance of context. I love this library because this represents your code base. This represents your IP. This represents all the things that you need to be willing to give over access to a model. If you own the model, if it's hosted in your organization, that's a whole lot different than if you decided to use a subscription service. I'm not telling you to not use subscription services. What I'm telling you is to go in eyes wide open and make sure that your organization is ok with things crossing your boundary.

I deal a lot with InfoSec organizations, and we talk about the information flow. If all of a sudden, I say, I'm just going to take the code base to provide as much context as possible and shoot it out the door. You guys don't mind, do you? They mind. What I want you to take away from this is, read the popups, read the end user licensing agreements, read them. When I saw this, for just a moment I went, how do I flush the cache? It happened to be that I was using some training information, actual workshop code. If it had been something of greater value, I would have taken pause. Read those things. Read the popups. Be aware. Public service announcement, keep the humans in the loop.

The Big Picture - Adding AI to the Enterprise

We're going to talk about how we add AI to the enterprise. How do you add AI to your strategy, or how do you create an AI strategy? It doesn't matter if you're an organization that has two people. It doesn't matter if you're an organization with 200, or 2000, or 20,000 people. You may already have a data strategy, what matters is that you do a needs assessment. Don't roll your eyes. What matters is that you get some people together, perhaps you just sit around the table with some Post-it notes, and you talk about what might be a valuable place to leverage this, make a decision.

It's not everything at all times, not automatically scaling, which takes me to the second point, define a pilot. Make sure you have a limited focused pilot, so you can try these things out. What I'm telling you is that this has groundbreaking potential, and there are limitations and there are challenges. When you're going through that pilot, it's going to help you to understand the different types of skills that you're going to need in your organization, or if you're going to need to hire more people, or if you're going to need to bring more people in. It also helps you get after this first couple of tranches of governance.

Hopefully, your governance is, "Don't do it." No, your governance needs to be relevant and relative to what you are attempting to do. Monitoring and feedback loops, always important. I want to point out the bottom bullet that's here. It may seem a little strange to you. Why am I telling you that you have to have thought leadership as part of your AI strategy? I'm not talking about sending your people to get up on stage. I'm not talking about writing white papers.

What I'm telling you is to make sure that in your organization that you give dedicated time to more than one person to stay abreast and help your organization to stay on top of what's happening. Because it's a tidal wave right now. I somedays don't even like to turn on my phone or read any of my feeds, because I know what it's going to say, another automated picture generated from DALL·E. Too much. Choose when and where to start. How? Map it to a business need. Map it to a need. Make sure it's relevant. If your need is that you need to get some experience, that's fine. Make a decision. Write it down, architectural decision records. Then, make sure that you have some measurements against it.

Time to design your AI assisted software engineering tool chain. Why is it that suddenly we've forgotten about all of the software architecture principles, capabilities, and things that we've been doing for decades? Why have we suddenly forgotten about tradeoff analysis, about the -ilities? When you're designing your tool chain, apply that same lens. Is it more relevant for you to take something that's off the shelf, because you need time to market? What are my tradeoffs? It may be faster.

It'll be less tailored to my exact domain need. It may be less secure. That may be a choice that we make. It could be that I have the time, energy, finances, abilities to do the tailoring myself. Maybe I instantiate a model internally. Maybe I have an external service, but I have a RAG internally. Lots of different variations, but make those choices. Let's not forget about all the things that we've known about for all these years. Leading practices. I want to point out that we need to keep humans in the loop. Make sure that everything is in source code, the prompts, the model numbers and names that you're using it against. Secure your vulnerabilities and don't provide your private information into public models, into public engines.

This guy is on a tightrope. He's walking between mountains. Take a look at that? He's mitigated his risk, he has tethers. Is he doing something dangerous? Yes, but that's ok because he's mitigating that. I need you to think about 2023 as a year where we really didn't have a lot of good regulation. It's coming about. We're seeing that regulation catch up. There are challenges with IP. It can be that a model was trained with public information, and so you actually don't own the copyright to the things that you're generating, because it tracks back from a lineage perspective as something somebody else owned.

Or worse, when you've sent it out the door, even if it hasn't been used to directly train a model, let's say that they are keeping on your behalf all of your conversation threads, and that they're analyzing those conversation threads, and that they're taking IP from that, you can lose ownership of your IP. In the U.S., we have copyright law. Our copyright law says that a human hand must have touched it. It means I have to be really careful when it comes to generated code. What questions should you be asking to your providers, or if you are the people who are providing that service to your enterprise? In the Appendix for this, there are two different sheets of different types of questions that I want you to take home and I want you to leverage.

I'll give you one or two as a snippet. One, how are you ensuring that the model is not creating malicious vulnerabilities? What are the guardrails that you have in place if I'm using your model? Or if you're providing that model, how are you ensuring that that's not happening? If there's an issue with the model, and the model needs to be changed, how are you going to notify me so that I can understand what the ramifications are to my value chain, to my value stream? Questions to ask.

Looking Ahead

Let's look ahead. I'm not going to go into this slide in detail because it covers generative AI, it covers regular AI, it covers ML. What's important to know is that red arrow, where are we? We're at the peak of inflated expectations. We absolutely are. I completely believe that. I'm sure all of your social feeds tell you that as well. AIOps is on the rise. Other places, other types of AI and ML will continue to improve. We're at the beginning of generative AI, but we're well on the way with the others. What do you think it looks like over the next 12 to 24 months? Recently, I've had the opportunity to interview folks from Microsoft, from IT Revolution, from Yahoo, from the Software Engineering Institute, and even some of my colleagues within MITRE Corporation.

What we believe, what we're seeing is going to happen, is happening now, is that we're seeing more data silos. Because each one of those areas where a different AI tool is being leveraged is a conversation between me and that tool. You and I are not sharing session. We're not having the same experience, especially with those generative AI tools. For right now, for now, for this moment, more data silos. Data silos means slower flow. Slower flow often means more quality issues. It's going to get worse, before it gets better. It's groundbreaking potential, that we need to know the limitations and the risks for. There's going to be a continued increase for the need for platform engineering, because what are platforms for? Whether it's low-code, no code, or the new kid on the block that we're doing it for our custom developers, it's making it hard for people to make mistakes. It's codifying leading practices. This is going to continue to increase.

What about this guy? Any of you with adult children here are going to send them off to coding bootcamp? Jensen Huang would say, do not do that. The pessimists are saying that AI will replace the coder. The optimists are saying that those who are qualified as software engineers, and software developers will be in a great place. I want you to hear the nuances that are there. If you're good at your craft, if you understand the principles, if you're able to leverage those principles, if you're able to teach others, you'll be fine.

What about Devin? Have you heard about Devin, or have you followed OpenDevin that came out about 3 days after Devin was announced? It's fun to watch it. You see a little video. There's six videos on the site. It is saying that this is an AI software engineer. What they've done is a form of AI swarming, they have different agents that are plugged in, where one is triggering, one is reacting to it. There are different patterns. One is a coder critic pattern. Essentially those patterns. We're going to see AI go from being a tool that we independently and individually use, to agents that are plugged into our SDLC. When they get plugged into our SDLC, we're going to have to be cognizant of what that does to the humans in the mix. We're going to give them very defined small roles. You may have somebody on your team that is a GenAI. Not a Gen X, not a Gen Z, a GenAI.

I want to take you back to 1939. What's that have to do with software? It has to do with black and white. 1939 was when the Wizard of Oz was filmed. It started out as black and white. Dorothy's house is picked up by a tornado, and it is cast over the rainbow, and it lands in Oz. Smashes the Wicked Witch, and she opens the door. As she opens the door, she looks out at things that she has never seen before, munchkins, flying monkeys, an emerald city, all in beautiful Technicolor. Do you know where we are? Same Technicolor my friends.

The future is amazing. What we're going to do will be amazing. We're going to need to optimize differently. Right now, our software practices are optimized for humans. I limit work in progress. Why? Because I'm a human. Agile, I take one user story at a time. Why? Because I'm human. We're worried about cognitive overload. Why? Because we're humans. It's not negative. It's just a fact that we finally learned to optimize for the humans. As we go from having AI agents to having more capable team members, or perhaps teams that are made up of many different generative AI agents, we're going to have to figure out, how do we optimize? Who do we optimize for? Exciting stuff.

I'm going to take you from Technicolor back to where we are right now. I like to say, we cannot put the genie back in the bottle. Prompt engineering, we need to understand it as a discipline. We need to understand the ethics of prompts. Who owns the generated outcomes? Machine-human teaming. We need to understand all this. What about software team performance, trust and reliability? Why am I showing you a horse's backside? Because a friend of mine named Lani Rosales, said, "Trac, you can actually trick the genie back into the bottle, but you can't put the poo back in the horse." I want you to take that with you. We cannot go back ever to where we were. We cannot go back to where we were. That's ok. We can go into it eyes wide open, understanding the challenges and the limits that are there, and working together to figure these things out.

Call to Action - Your Next Steps

Your call to action. Go back and pulse your organization. Find out where the shadow Gen is being used, the shadow AI is being used. Bring it to the surface. Don't shame people. Understand how they're using it. Then enable them to do the kinds of research, or if they bring forward a need, that you help them with that need. Make sure you are looking at cybersecurity as your numero uno issue. Number one, establish your guardrails. Then, connect with your providers.

Use those questions or be ready to answer those questions if you are the provider of generative AI capabilities to your organization. That's your call to action. I need something from all of you. You're actually the missing piece of my puzzle. As a researcher, I want to understand, how are you using generative AI? How is your organization preparing? How are you personally focusing on getting ready for this? What are you doing? Share your organization's lessons learned. Tell me about your stories. Tell me about the challenges that you have. Or tell me about the things that you want to learn about because you haven't gotten there yet. This is in color. What matters in all of this is the humans. This is what matters.
