The composition of your audience - Rhodes scholars or village idiots?
Time allotted vs. time used, and pacing your delivery for a timely finish, allowing for review and Q&A.
Lighting, sound, temperature, length of time between breaks, and other environmental issues within the delivery space.
Your personal presence - clean, dressed appropriately, calm and organized in appearance in demeanor, no filthy habits (no picking your nose, no foul language), no personal attacks on anyone, be well-rested, ...
Sufficient handouts of appropriate material, distributed at an appropriate time.
Speak loud enough, and clearly. Be sober and don't slur your speech.
Start on time - let the late arrivals know they should be on time the next time they want to attend one of your presentations. Don't allow a few of your audience members to establish a bad precedent.
Respond to interruptions appropriately, but don't allow them to upset your pre-established schedule. Build in some slack time for valid, useful responses for which the audience prompts you.
Arrive early to check out your setup requirements: your contact information posted conspicuously, computer readiness, projection TV, slide show, microphones and amps, lighting, podium, ...
Present in three phases if you are giving a teaching presentation:
1) Tell them what you are about to tell them - the prologue.
2) Tell them what they came to learn - the body.
3) Tell them what you just told them - the epilogue.
Have fun, relax, and enjoy yourself - nobody wants to have to watch somebody sweat, squirm, and be miserable when they came to learn from them.
