On Friday, April 15, our group made a presentation about Waffle Frolic, a local restaurant that specializes in breakfast and brunch. In the presentation, we used direct method 2 to recognize the problem, identify the cause, find the solution, and analyzed cost and benefit.
Overall, we will give our self a score of 9 because all members of our team had a strong and professional tone throughout our presentation without the use of fillers and incorporating subtle transition points. Furthermore, we had a credible, clear, and varied content base backed up by evidence and visual support. However, there are many areas that we all need to work on including finishing the respective phrase before answering a question and coordinating our stance and posture.
We believe that our overall presentation style and tone were appropriate given our content and context. First, the attire of our team members was consistent, professional, and matches the color theme of our PowerPoint slides. This created a positive and credible first impression for the audience. Second, throughout the whole presentation, we maintained a professional and transparent presentation style. Even when being interrupted and answering questions, we didn’t slack off and still managed to remain professional. We were open and receptive to the audience at all times.
Third, we incorporated what we learned from the Management Communication textbook into our presentation. We included a preview to give the audience a quick

I will look to the feedback and criticisms given in order to improve on my presentation and communication skills for the future.
Power point presentation design theme is simple and provides the consistent background, which followed standard rule of using contrasting colors for text and background (National Conference of State Legislatures, “n.d.”). The theme does not overthrow the context of the presentation. Standard rule of effective presentation has been followed in this presentation such as including the basic design them, slide numbers, and providing the consistent font color. However, the selected font color of the each slide’s title is red which can distract and mislead the reader. Red font color is utilized mostly in emphasizing information. Therefore, red text on every slide is distracting factor in this case. Through out the presentation, diagrams and related pictures have been included to add the interest to the context. For example, explanation of the
Presentations should reflect a careful analysis of audience interest and be relevant. Presentations should also reflect the theory we
These waffles are everything I want a waffle to be, and tons of my blog
The visual aids that people used were very helpful in understanding the topic. Mikey's PowerPoint was a good example of this. He used many pictures to bring humor to the situation. I think that that was very creative and it was fun to watch and hear about his topic. I found Mike's speech to be very creative. This is because even though some of his presentation was very graphic I think that was creative that he used what he did. By doing this, he got everyone’s attention.
Based on the skills mentioned above, I am below the standard. Planned presentation and restricted feedback are among the characteristics that make formal presentations formal. Contributing to the formality are the serious intent of both the presenter and the audience, the distance maintained between the speaker and the audience, and the fact that the presentation will take place at a specific time and
For this review, I chose the Waring Pro WMK600 Double Belgian-Waffle Maker because I love recreating restaurant-inspired meals for my family. This appliance helps me do just that. Originally designed for commercial kitchens, this professional-style waffle maker bakes waffles quickly and evenly. And, since it cooks two waffles at a time, I can serve them faster than my family can eat them.
After reviewing the slides, describe areas that would be unprofessional in your field when considering attire and presentation of self?
Business communication broadly covered the idea of conveying a professionalism in each aspect of our working life because it works in our favor. Interviewing for a new job, presenting a new business venture or speaking to a department within your workplace are all enhanced with a professional wardrobe. Working in a healthcare facility, this chapter of Influence overly applied to my current job. An example that I would like to highlight is derived from drug representatives. There are studies that describe the phenomenon of the excessively good looking drug pushers. Just as any business would want to project their product in the best light, drug providers do the same. However, they may not be the best example to use a character such as Barney in their marketing scheme.
Kirk Osborn is the Managing Director at Thinking Ledge LLC. During his presentation, he was trying to show the students how to master the art of presenting. Consequently, from his presentation, I was able to learn several presentation skills and how to engage with the audience. One thing that I liked the most from his presentation was his interaction with the audience. Instead of using several PowerPoint slides to sell the product, “Transmeta”, he was successfully able to engage with the audience by talking about real-life examples that people could relate to.
Just one bite will send you into a type of waffle heaven. A waffle is golden brown, round baked batter with 4 sections, cover with pockets large enough to contain barrels of sweet syrup and sugar. Cooked but not cooked evenly throughout, the firm and tough outer shell of batter along with the soft inside, will easily melt in your mouth like butter in a hot pan. Waffles are topped with sweet, white powdered sugar evenly sprinkled across the breading hugging the dimpled strawberries perched in the pockets of the waffle. The smooth brown syrup and the bubbly butter intertwined and mixed throughout the creation within the crevices of the waffle. Syrup is evenly spread, hugging the strawberries, being absorbed by the bread creating an even sweeter
London's sustenance scene is fabulous nowadays - and is showing signs of improvement at an astonishing rate. Unfortunately however, you only have a finite time to have it all in especially you plan to head towards the big brunch in the city, so here are the list of essential dishes you need to try…
First,how to make waffles get the stuff you need like a egg,milk,waffle mix, and vegetable oil. Then crack your egg into a bowl then a little bit of vegetable oil. Also after that add as much waffle mix as you but how much you put in is as much mix. Then get your milk and pour a little bit in there to loosen up the mix.
Although, I did notice that the women had on skirts which there were legs showing. Not that it took away from the speaking, but looking around it did get the attention of the men in the audience which from observing they probably were not paying attention to the speaker. It was a typical setting as with most, we were at a hotel and we were in a huge room with a stage and screens. It was by far boring in my eyes it was the typical scene, but I understand that you want to be taken seriously in a professional environment, hearing about it is one thing, but being in attendance is another. I like colors, but I know in most professional environments, it is distracting and will take away from the purpose of the speech. First of all, this is a conference concerning most banks operating systems, so it was interesting, to say the least. It was captivating to me because he touched on things I have to deal with every day while working on the computer at work. The one thing most of the speakers did were engaging the audience, the one thing they referenced in the introduction, was introducing themselves, along with stating that they want the audience involved. This is not a fly by event this is an event that is being held for three (3) consecutive eight (8) hour days. There was a lot of ground to cover and it was in a room with well over hundreds of people. I liked the
