GUIDE FOR PRESENTATIONS

THE 6 MOST IMPORTANT TAKEAWAYS:

1. DON'TS

Our experience shows that pure self-presentations or advertising for your own services arouse little interest. General presentations without specific content are also rarely well received by the audience. Instead, contributions that offer the audience real added value are in demand – for example, through practical career tips or directly applicable learnings.

In order for your post to engage the audience, it should meet at least one of these goals: EDUCATION. ENTERTAINMENT. INSPIRATION.

2. TARGET AUDIENCE

Before choosing a topic, you should clarify:

Who is your audience?
What career-relevant learnings can the audience take away?
What specific added value do you offer?

Whether students, young professionals or experienced specialists – the more clearly you define your audience, the more relevant your contribution will be.

3. TOPICS & FORMATS

A rousing contribution thrives on practical and inspiring content. You can use a variety of formats – from classic presentations and panel discussions to interactive workshops. Here you will find a list of popular topics from recent years:

Tip: A good title is crucial! It should arouse curiosity, raise questions and make you want to contribute.

4. LANGUAGE & LECTURE STYLE

German or English? Choose what suits your topic and your target group.
Interactive formats: Q&A sessions, panel discussions or live demos keep the audience engaged.
Storytelling: People are more likely to remember stories than dry facts.

Hands-on approach: Workshops or interactive elements can enhance the learning experience.

5. DIVERSITY

We focus on diversity: Please make sure that diverse perspectives are represented in your contribution. We also want to ensure that our speaker line-up does not consist predominantly of cis-male people. Women, non-binary and trans* people as well as people of colour and neurodivergent people are expressly encouraged to apply.

6. PREPARATION AND FOLLOW-UP

A big part of your success depends on preparation:

Promote your contribution via social media, blogs or networks.
Use appealing slides, visuals or practical examples to make your content tangible.
Be available to answer questions or network after your post – this can bring valuable new contacts.

With these tips, you will ensure that your contribution is not only heard, but also remembered!
