Can you turn 150 pages into a 5 minute presentation before a meeting?

With no knowledge of the subject, or your level of English, giving presentations and editing it's hard to say!

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail, and I fear that is your problem! You are overwhelmed and don't have a clue where to start.

If necessary send something to everyone in advance again with highlights you want to emphasise or hand something out at the end.

Why does everyone hate Anthony Joshua so much? I get that he isn’t the best heavyweight boxer ever but people claim he’s a no skill fighter but he has an Olympic gold medal, a world championship, and beat Klitschko, a dominant force in boxing

Personally yes, I could as I have worked on sakes and marketing, so gave many presentations on a variety of subjects.

Lots of the writing will be blah blah blah so ignore it. It's the who, where, when, why and how much that counts, usually.

Use diagrams or photos with simple key points

Why do trans people get so deeply offended when a stranger misgenders them, especially when it's a first encounter? I've been socially transitioned for 4 years and it just feels like a waste of energy to be so hurt by it.

Use the 4 point plan. Introduction, good points, bad points and conclusion.

Now working as an English language teacher I teach students to give presentations to get good exam results and am currently teaching Algerian trainee pilots to give presentations, describe a photo, read a taxt and summarise it and to answer questions on all 3 disciplines.

Control the room by starting I am xx here to discuss xxx and will answer questions at the end of my presentation.
