That&#8217;s where you grab people&#8217;s attention and give them a reason to listen. But the end of your presentation is just as important. If you do a great job of engaging your audience but then have a weak finish, they&#8217;ll walk away with a bad last impression. And you want to avoid that at all costs.<\/p>\n<p>So what exactly is involved in a good conclusion to a presentation? What do you need to do to make sure people walk away feeling that they learned something, they want to buy something, or they agree with you?<\/p>\n<p>Today, we&#8217;ll learn some great ways to do just that. We&#8217;ll look at a variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessenglishpod.com\/category\/presentations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">English presentation<\/a> techniques such as summarizing key ideas, closing inspirationally, and opening up for questions. We&#8217;ll also learn how to connect your ideas with the big picture and wrap up at the end of the presentation.<\/p>\n<p>In this lesson, we&#8217;ll hear how two different speakers finish their presentations. The first speaker is Nick, a recruiter for a medical supplies company. He&#8217;s been trying to convince potential recruits that his company is great to work for. In the second dialog we&#8217;ll hear Diane, who&#8217;s finishing up a report about her company&#8217;s third quarter financial statements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Listening Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.\tIn his summary, Nick mentions several topics that he covered. What are they?<br \/>\n2.\tTo inspire his listeners, what does Nick ask them to think about?<br \/>\n3.\tWhat does Diane say is the company&#8217;s larger vision?<\/p>\n<p>[tp
