How to Open Your Presentation with Commanding Attention
You have a few seconds to set the tone for your presentation. A good start paves
the road to success while a weak opening can slam shut the door to success.
Your opening must do three things for you. Grab attention, set the direction and establish rapport. Without their attention you have a room of non-listeners. Without knowing your direction your audience will feel lost and confused. Without rapport you might have a room of enemies.
You can grab attention with contrast, relevance and credibility.
You can set the direction by answering the question, "Why are we here?"
You can establish rapport by demonstrating empathy, common interest and confidence.

9 Jokes to Begin Open or End Presentation Meeting or Speech
Different speakers and presenters (no matter from where they are) are agreed on one thing that it seems for friendly and attractive to start your presentation with a joke or a funny quote.

These two things are really important and deeply connected to each other. If the joke is funny enough to make someone laugh but is not relevant to your topic and you unfortunately just speak that in front of everyone, you would look no more than a fool. Similarly, if the joke is perfectly relevant to your topic but is not funny, ultimately you would find that audience is staring at you and you again would seem like a fool. So be very careful while selecting a joke.
