Presentation Pointers: Good news and bad news

There is good news and bad news:  There is no other kind.  News that fish have gills is not news, except maybe to fish.

Presentations and speeches, like sporting events, hold attention when they have both good and bad news, ups and downs, progress and setbacks.

Bad news should come near the start, to create tension and drama.  Good news follows as we present solutions.  Then bad news again, as we reveal deeper problems requiring more complex solutions, until at the end, we lead our listeners to a sense of resolution.
