Gesture & etiquette
Point to the citation on the slide as you mention it — never just say it verbally without a visible reference. Japanese audiences expect data to be verifiable. If questioned on the source, respond immediately with specifics rather than saying 'I'll check.'
Citing sources in Japanese business presentations is important for credibility — unsourced data will draw skeptical questions. 「より引用しております」(cited from) uses the humble continuous form to signal ongoing deference to the original source. Include the year and publisher on the slide itself so the audience can verify independently.
