Keep It Flexible
Executives are notorious for interrupting. They will have questions, and they won’t wait until the formal Q&A time to ask them.
One strategy is structuring your presentation like an accordion. In other words, design it so that you can expand or shorten it as needed.
Lastly, leave ample time for discussion. Follow the 10/30 rule: if you have 30 minutes on the agenda, plan for 10 minutes of content and earmark the rest for interaction. Anticipate questions seniors leaders may have, so that you’re ready to answer them on the spot.
