How to introduce yourself so that you are remembered. How to present your project creatively

How you present yourself at the competition directly affects its outcome. The first impression made on the jury and the audience is preserved throughout the event. In order to win people over, to create a positive atmosphere, it is important to think over the greeting to the smallest detail: the external image, text, manner of speech, design.

How to write a presentation about yourself

In order to form an impression about a person, at competitions, regardless of the subject, participants present a story about themselves - a business card.

It is advisable to prepare in advance, compose an original and interesting text, come up with design and external image so that the jury and the audience have a favorable opinion about the speaker.


When making a presentation about yourself, it is important to avoid some points:

  • Performancedo not tighten. Brevity, capacity, accuracy are important.
  • A business card is not a biography of a participant, but a way of self-expression. Instead of listing the stages of life, it is important to show the inner world.
  • An artistic and confident manner of speaking is encouraged. The viewer should not get bored, otherwise he will lose interest in the participant and will not remember him.

Business card

Ideas for self-presentation are varied and depend on the type of competition. The task of a business card is to provide information about the participant, his merits, strengths, and achievements.

To the beauty contest

The standard greeting includes a greeting, short biography, a story about hobbies, achievements, mention of the family, information about children, gratitude for participation.

A video resume made from photos and videos looks creative. In the format of the competition, it is recommended to include materials from professional filming in the film.

It is important to work on the outside. It is better to sew a dress from a fashion designer - this way it will favorably emphasize the figure and eliminate the risk of an identical rival.

For seasonal competitions (Miss Spring, Autumn, Summer, Winter), the costume is decorated with appropriate paraphernalia: leaves, flowers, and so on.

This outfit is especially suitable for children.

The image suggests charm, the delicate shades of the dress for girls look beautiful and appropriate. It is beneficial to use hats, wreaths with flowers (for a summer holiday), an umbrella and so on.

Also, at the mini-miss or mister competition, you can introduce yourself in a national costume.

He took away her distant kingdom of the city (indicate the name). They lived happily ever after, soon a heroic son (Name) was born to them, all in dad: both in mind and strength.

And beauty and ingenuity went to my mother. It grows by leaps and bounds. The family is friendly and helps each other in everything: they clean the palace together, prepare a feast, fight computer enemies. But the time has come when the heroes and their princess decided to see the world and show themselves. And here we are in front of you, ready to overcome difficult trials and emerge victorious from them.

Somewhere in a galaxy far, far away... A young star shone in the sky: bright, beautiful. She illuminated the darkness of the universe with light. Her neighbors, stars, told her about people: beautiful, sincere, smart, who warm each other with warmth and tenderness.

Useful video

Examples of self-presentation of participants at competitions are presented in the video

We live in an amazing time. The world is changing rapidly, and by 2020 the digital universe will grow tenfold. There will be even more diverse content, it will be more and more difficult for our overloaded brain to perceive it.

To cope with such an influx of information, you need to learn how to properly structure and present it.

How to create an effective presentation and what mistakes to avoid in the process?

Rule 1: Engage with Content

During one of my lectures, I was asked: "Alexander, what do you see successful presentation. I thought for a long time, looking for arguments, because success in this business consists of many factors.

First of all, interesting, structured and well-presented content.

Such that during the presentation the listener looked at the phone for only one purpose - to take pictures of the slides, and not to check the Facebook feed.

So that his eyes would burn and the desire to create would appear.

But how do you know if the audience is ready, if they are interested in how involved they are?

First you need to come to terms with an important fact: people do not go to think and strain. And they probably don't care about your presentation. However, how you present and what they see can change their mind.

Dave Paradis is a presentation specialist who did some research on his site.

He asked people a question: what do they dislike about presentations? Based on thousands of people's responses, he formed two important remarks for any speaker.

Rule 2. Do not read the text from the slides

69% of respondents answered that they hate it when the speaker repeats the text placed on the slides of his presentation. You must explain the information on each slide in your own words. Otherwise, you risk that your audience will simply fall asleep.

Rule 3. Don't "shrink" :)

48% of people cannot tolerate too small font in the presentation. You can come up with ingenious text for each slide, but all your creativity will go down the drain if this text is unreadable.

Rule 4. Joke and be sincere

Will Stefan at TED-x knows how to laugh at himself even during important presentations.

Look. Make a conclusion. Smile. The audience will appreciate your ease of communication and simplicity of speech.

Rule 5: Use the right fonts

In 2012, The New York Times conducted an experiment called "Are you an optimist or a pessimist?".

Its participants had to read an excerpt from the book and answer "yes" or "no" to several questions.

The purpose of the experiment: to determine whether the font affects the reader's trust in the text.

Forty thousand people participated and were shown the same paragraph in different fonts: Comic Sans, Computer Modern, Georgia, Trebuchet, Baskerville, Helvetica.

The result is that the text written in Comic Sans and Helvetica did not inspire confidence among readers, but Baskerville, on the contrary, received consent and approval. According to psychologists, this is due to its formal appearance.

Rule 6. Visualize

We all perceive information differently. You tell the person: make a beautiful presentation. You draw a specific example in your head.

And you don’t even realize that in his mind a beautiful presentation looks completely different.

Therefore, it is better to show five pictures than to explain everything in words once.

Before your speech, you need to pick up clear illustrations of your key message. It doesn't matter what you sell - lunch boxes, your consultations or life insurance.

Show your audience five pictures

You

Your product

Benefits of your product

Happy buyers

Metrics of your success

Rule 7. Simplify

Most people think that making a presentation on a white background is boring and unprofessional. They are convinced that it is worth changing the color - “magic” will happen and the client will immediately accept the order. But this is a delusion.

We try to "embellish" the slide with a large number of objects, although we can explain its essence in one word or picture.

Your goal is not to reach the level of Rembrandt's skill. An overly detailed and elaborate drawing only distracts the audience from the message you intend to convey. (Dan Roam, author of Visual Thinking)

Using illustrations and a minimum of text, we help convey our thoughts to the audience and capture their attention.

Less is not boring. The design of the one dollar bill is over 150 years old, and it only gets better every year.

It is constantly visually changed, leaving only the most important on the bill. Today, the banknote is beautiful in its simplicity.

Rule 8. Rehearse your performance

If you don't have time to prepare a presentation, why should the client take the time to do so? How will you enter the hall? What will you say first? Your laptop will be ten percent charged, and where do you expect to find an outlet? Will you rehearse a few scripts and your speech?

All questions have the same answer: important meetings and presentations need to be prepared. It is not enough to create a presentation with cool content and pictures, you need to be able to present it. At the performance, you must be understood, heard and accepted.

Creation effective presentation is not just adding cool content and pictures to the slides, it is the ability to present them. At the speech, you should be understood, heard and accepted.)

Imagine: a person comes into the hall and starts rushing about - then the 1st slide, then the 7th, then back to the 3rd. Worries, worries, forgets. Will you understand anything? I do not think.

People feel very good about other people. When you are not ready, not sure, you can see it from a distance. So my advice is to rehearse your presentation in front of a mirror at least three times.

Meet on the cover

Imagine you came to a meeting, amazed everyone cool presentation, added as a friend on Facebook the one to whom they were “sold”, and you have a flower or a skull on your profile picture.

First, it's weird. Secondly, in two weeks, when you write to a person in the messenger, he will not remember your face.

Open messenger. If you see letters or a person who has his back turned to you on the avatar, do you remember the face of the interlocutor without his name?

Presentations make a difference. This does not necessarily mean that they are changing the audience. This can also happen, but I'm not talking about that now. Presentations transform you and your own ideas. It's not about making you rich and famous with their help. It's about being different the best people. You will become more knowledgeable, more understanding, more sincere and more passionate. ( Alexey Kapterev, presentation expert)

No matter how cool your presentation in PowerPoint is, if you have a picture in a bad resolution on your profile picture, they will forget about the presentation.

Remember that your Facebook profile is selling while you sleep. They visit it, read it, look for something interesting. The visual design of your page is very important.

Can I ask you to do one thing? Upload your facebook avatar with a white background and make a cover with your photo and short description, What do you do.

Over time, you will realize that you are “meeting by the cover”, and you will get a specific result from communication.

Presentation by mail: 5 life hacks

A presentation in front of an audience is very different from the one you need to mail.

What I advise you to pay attention to before sending a presentation to a client:

The title slide always sells. Your first picture should be provocative, unusual. Looking at it, a person should want to know more.


Self-presentation is one of the topics that presenters fear. It is difficult to understand what the audience wants to know and how much they want to tell about themselves. Self-presentation is one of the most common speeches you will be asked to give in life.

Self-presentation is the process by which individuals present themselves in the social world. This process takes place on both conscious and unconscious levels, usually motivated by the desire to please others and satisfy one's own needs. Self-presentation can be used as a means of managing impressions.

Self-presentation is any behavior intended to create, modify, preserve an impression of oneself in the minds of other people.

Self-presentation performs three important functions:

  • helps social interaction
  • enables people to achieve material and social rewards
  • helps individuals create desired identities

Types of presentations

You can communicate information about yourself to people through self-presentation. They are divided into groups:

  1. The ratio of the audience to the presenter.
  2. According to the form of implementation (oral, in the form of text).
  3. According to the purpose of the event (promoting, informational).
  4. By the size of the audience (private, chamber,).
  5. The theory of self-presentation suggests that human behavior is aimed at creating a desired impression. We want people to see us in a certain way.

Three components of a successful self-presentation:

  • the speaker must be motivated to have a special effect on the minds of the listeners
  • the speaker must have the cognitive ability to know which particular behavior will lead to the desired impression
  • must be able and willing to accept the desired behavior

Successful self-presentation involves a balance between benefits (presenting the most useful image for the situation) and believability (making sure that the image will be perceived by others). Being aware of these factors, people usually change according to the audience's expectations.

When planning a speech, divide it into three parts - beginning, middle, conclusion. This will give it structure and help with writing.

Greet the audience with warmth, tell who you are, what and why you are going to speak.

Tell us about yourself: hobbies, hopes, dreams, goals. Be informative, if appropriate, be sure to talk about personal achievements.

Discuss the reasons for wanting to work for the company, touch on past experiences, and explain why you think you are the right fit for the position. Tell an interesting incident from the past, if appropriate. Let interviewers know what you're proud of. It can be the ability to save time, efficiency, skills. Get ready for questions about this.

If you are in high school, starting a new college course, explain why you chose this course, what interests you in a particular job or career.

The most important moment! Don't add Additional information at the end of the speech, you should ask the audience if there are any questions. You should thank the listeners for their time and attention.

Aspects of Personal Presentation

Important components of a personal presentation: clothing, accessories (bags, phones, diaries, jewelry, scarves), body language, voice.

Clothing is the most obvious side of personal presentation. When deciding what to wear, pay attention to a few things. What is the audience expecting? business suit may not always be appropriate. Much depends on the expectations of potential listeners. Sometimes a smart casual style is more appropriate.

You need to feel confident and relaxed at the presentation, you need to find a balance between the expectation of the audience and comfort.

Women need to think about shoes: you will have to stand for a long time, make sure you can do it. If you're not used to heels, don't wear them.

Accessories must match the clothing. This does not mean that the bag should be the same color as the jacket. If you are wearing a suit, then your materials should be in a briefcase, not in a backpack.

The role of the voice in a speech

Three main elements of speech must be mastered by those who want to become effective speakers:

  1. Volume - to be heard.
  2. Clarity is to be understood.
  3. Variety is to generate interest.

Volume. Some people have naturally soft voices. If the voice is too high, the tonal quality is lost. Do not raise, but “project” your voice as you exhale.

When talking to a group, it is important not to direct the speech to the front row or just to the people closest to you, but to consciously address the phrases to those who are further away.

Clarity. Some people tend to speak through clenched teeth. This inability to open the mouth and not make sounds distinctly is the main cause of slurred speech.

Diversity. To make speech effective and interesting, you need to apply vocal variety. Ways to achieve vocal diversity:

  • speed
  • volume
  • delivery - intonation - accent
  • pause

Speaking speed. If the speech is too fast, the listeners do not have time to absorb what is said. To keep the listeners interested, you need to vary the pace of speech - first speeding up, and then slowing down.

Volume. By increasing or decreasing the volume, you can create an accent.

Presentation - Intonation - Accent: Speaking in public, try to convey information with as much energy and enthusiasm in your voice as possible.

Pause. Can be used for effect, to highlight a previous statement, or to grab attention with an important message.

Sample of self-presentation in an interview

An interview is a meeting and conversation between an applicant and a potential employer. During the interview, it is important for the parties to understand whether they are suitable for each other, to discuss the details joint work. can ask questions about education and as well as skills and knowledge. It is possible to talk about personal, aspirations and plans in life.

First impressions can play important role how the employer perceives you as a candidate. What you say at the first stage of the interview can make a big difference in the outcome.

  1. Start with a smile on your face, identify yourself.
  2. Tell me about the details of education.
  3. Answer the question why you want to work for this company.
  4. Report skills and abilities.
  5. Add if necessary.
  6. Tell us about your hobbies and hobbies.
  7. How do you spend your free time, if any?
  8. When finished, say THANK YOU to the person who listened to you.

Things to avoid talking about in an interview:

Self-presentation example

Good morning,

Nice to introduce myself. My name is Igor Novikov. I'm from St. Petersburg. I work in electronics and software engineering. Last year I graduated from LETI. I also completed courses in computer security there.

My father is a civil servant and my mother is a housewife.

My strengths are that I like to solve problems, I am a self-motivated person and a self-disciplined person. I am a good team player and I am great at leading a team. I can accept any medium. I am a good listener and a fast learner.

I do not want to talk about my weaknesses, but I like to talk about the possibility of improvement, I believe in myself and my work, and I want to improve.

My short term goal is to have a base where I can make a career along with the growth of an organization like yours.

I think that the most important thing at an interview is to be self-confident and know what you are going to tell, the manager will feel confident. Highlight the most important things for yourself in advance and tell without a hitch.

To answer

I can say that not everyone is given to speak in public. But if the goal is at stake good job, then of course it makes sense to thoroughly prepare and present yourself with better side. Sometimes it's not what you say, but how.

To answer

The speaker walked onto the stage, tapped on the microphone, winced at the terrible sound of the speakers from his manipulation, laughed tightly, swallowed loudly, muttered something and began to stutter.

And everything went wrong. With that, the most interesting part of the presentation is over.

As he spoke word by word, I looked around the room. A sea of ​​heads with heavy eyelids nodded their noses. No one could keep awake, let alone follow the speaker's train of thought. It was sad to watch.

Really sad, because I personally knew the speaker and knew how smart he was in his work. But his presentation that day did not convince anyone of his sharp intellect. Even worse, no one in the room wanted to collaborate with him as an expert in their field of expertise.

Success in business depends as much on your knowledge of the business as on the ability to talk about your work in a way that makes it sound smart, attractive, and persuasive. Because if no one sees how smart you are, how will they know they need your services?

In other words, a well-guarded secret will not bring popularity.

A brilliant business under a thick veil will not make you money.

This means that as a small business owner, you will have to make presentations about your work. Stunning, brilliant and intriguing presentations about their work.

10 Creative Presentation Ideas

1. Tell a story

The human brain is designed to automatically respond to stories. It's part of the survival mechanism (" Don't leave the cave! There is a huge mammoth roaming around!"). It is also a way of entertainment (" And then the mammoth approached, I jumped out of hiding, all camouflaged with branches, and began to growl like a wild animal".) And this dual function elevated the genre of storytelling to the level of the highest means of communication known to man.

We perceive and learn the facts of the world around us with the help of a story.

Stories are much more interesting to listen to than listing facts, because they captivate us. Stories capture attention and hold it. They help the audience understand and remember information for a long time, much longer after the story has ended.

Instead of presenting your findings in a string of facts (budgets, numbers, summaries) that will drive even the most positive-minded audience crazy, write a story out of your facts.

Use professional design with eye-catching photo and graphics layouts to help your audience make eye contact with your story. For example, the Summit 2 PowerPoint template will work for you.

2. Ask questions at crucial moments

The statements sound expected and uninteresting. Especially during a presentation. Since a presentation is essentially a series of statements tied together, one more statement is unlikely to intrigue the audience - even if it is extraordinary.

What if you ask a question?

The question breaks the monotonous rhythm of the presentation and helps to add weight to what you are saying. Moreover, the question will turn your presentation from a passive story into active search, in which the audience can independently join with the help of their answers.

Ask questions and interact with your audience. (graphic resource)

When you encourage your listeners to answer a question (even mentally), they are drawn into the presentation. This keeps them interested in your words.

3. Break the entire presentation into 3 clear arguments.

Since ancient times number 3 considered a bit of a magic number in many cultures. There is something about groupings of three that affects the human mind in an inexplicable way and helps us retain information better. Examples: "body, soul and mind"; "fire, water and copper pipes"Blood, sweat and tears."

With or without magic, the number three always works. At the end of the presentation, we will always remember three things we were told.

So instead of letting the listener choose which three things they remember, why not take the plunge and break down your presentation into three key arguments and conclusions? Now you can be sure that the audience pays attention to the most important points, and not to insignificant details.

Even if you give more than three arguments, and you probably will, you can find ways to organize all the little things into three main categories. Then you can easily go back and summarize the gist of your presentation at the end.

Cost, time, results. Problem, suggestions, solution. Beginning, middle and end. The main thing to remember is to divide the content into three parts!

4. Don't Forget About Humor

Humor moves the world. The same is true in the world of business. After all, no one wants to work with a dead person.

So even when you're making a presentation in front of a "serious" client or investor, don't forget to use humor. This doesn't mean you should be cracking jokes all the time. You just need to behave easily, be a little perky and prepossessing.

Do not make friends with humor? Do not worry. You can find presentations on how to make humorous presentations!

Dance and have fun -
Anything you want I can

With a beautiful smile.

Burning everyone by accident.
Energy - more than enough
Please choose me!

I am strong and brave
I'm already driving!
Any difficulties for me
And there is no reason to be discouraged!
Who am I?
A real man!

I answer questions first
I understand everything in the world
And I love science!
And I'll tell you a secret
There is simply no better guy!

Good afternoon everyone, my name is Karina,
Student, activist, 20 years old.
I am an optimist, I love life so much
That gives only happiness to me dawn.

My stylist told me about the contest.
Mom and dad know that I'm here
And for friends - this is a big surprise!

A good business card about yourself for the competition is a guarantee of success. But still, the decisive role is played by the intellect, talent, skills and knowledge of a person. The participant should try to ensure that both the presentation of himself and the further performance were done on the same level.
