With his magnificent delivery, it&#8217;s rather hard to think that he&#8217;s a college drop-out. In his presentations as in many of his keynotes during Apple product launches, he doesn\u2019t use any bullet points in his presentations, the slides are free of any jargon with minimal words but they have photographs and headlines that are hard to forget. To emulate him is of course very difficult, but you can perhaps learn some of his trades. I personally practise to deliver a presentation like him whenever I presented my papers at conferences (still learning though, so still not good enough).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1886\" title=\"stevejobs_presentation\" src=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/stevejobs.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"448\" height=\"305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/stevejobs.jpg 506w, https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/stevejobs-300x203.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 448px) 100vw, 448px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>How to Deliver a Presentation like Steve Jobs<\/h3>\n<p>If you like to learn some of the techniques and styles that make Steve  Jobs such a great presenter, here\u2019s some excellent advice (embedded video and slides) from Businessweek columnist Carmine Gallo, who is also the  author of the book &#8212; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0071636080\/labnol-20\/\">The  Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs<\/a>.
