Although knowledge is very important while delivering on certain topics,
presentation adds positive impact to it. No matter how comfortable you are with
the topic, you must practice and fine tune knowledge in order to be best.
Proper beginning and a logical conclusion is very important elements of
presentation skill. While presenting, you need to keep motivating people to
participate in order to make interactive session. Too formal presentation looks
like lecture.
