When giving a business presentation the speaker will often call upon information from outside sources. The speaker simply cannot only rely on their own knowledge. Researching and using information from outside sources is a great way to increase your credibility and strengthen your main points. However, when using outside information from other sources, it is important to cite correctly. Plagiarism is a major issue and should always be avoided. The following tips will help in properly citing sources during a presentation.
- Quote the source- Make sure the audience understands who the source is and where the quote begins and ends.
- Paraphrase- Whenever you put someone else's words into your own, always give credit to the source.
- Multiple Sources- The more support you can offer for your point, the more credible your argument and source will be.
