- Have a slide deck that is too long for your allotted time
- Use bad fonts with drop shadows
- Use funny voices and occasionally sing
- Frantically wave your hands around
- Be sure to never credit your sources
- Talk a lot about your credentials
- Use only really obscure examples of whatever you’re talking about
- Avoid eye contact with the audience
- Bring up lots of anecdotes about times when you were smarter than other people
- Be sure to not leave any time for questions at the end
- Apologize for your presentation
