Apr 13 at 15:32 | comment | added | CfourPiO | @user27119 thanks for the reply. Actually, it’s still a presentation style and I spend 5 minutes for a recap. However, I see your point and that’s why I agree with the last part of your answer. I will spend time to make graphical slides in the beginning to go from a broad to a narrow scope of the research. I will definitely work on it. Thanks a lot :) | |
Apr 13 at 14:35 | comment | added | user27119 | @CfourPiO I was using the talk as an analogy, but throwing together a few slides a week is not much effort at all. They don't have to be conference level. You don't really explain what goes on in the meetings. If you're just talking at him, then maybe this is the issue? How is one supposed to follow detailed material, again, I'm not surprised he switches off. Based off what you have written, it still sounds like presentation style is your problem; whether that is specific to slides or meeting format I cannot say as you didn't provide that information. | |
Apr 12 at 21:11 | comment | added | CfourPiO | I agree with the last part you said. Thanks for the answer. I will work on it. However, at the same time I should say that it’s a progress meeting. I usually want to discuss things that didn’t work or if I am confused. Doing a whole talk every week will just drain my energy. My presentations in public are actually well received. I know how much effort goes into it. Doing it every week is not possible. I usually do a 5 minutes recap. Doing it more is just inefficient. So, first I think I’ll ask them feedback on my content and if it’s hard to follow. Secondly, I won’t do many meetings. | |

Apr 12 at 9:54 | comment | added | user27119 | It's really the way to go with talks in my view: less is, very nearly always, more! I don't know if you are able to post links in the comments, but could you post the name of the talk? | |
Apr 12 at 9:22 | comment | added | Tom | I watched a talk of a Fields medal winner and he did this quite well. Why do we care about this? How close are we to proving this conjecture? Not close at all. What about a weaker conjecture? In this case, maybe it is a bit easier. Here is roughly speaking what I did on this with some pictures of the overall strategy without too many details. | |
