Слайд 12Zombie PowerPoint Symptom #1: Unclear purpose


Слайд 13The Disease: Zombies have no purpose


Слайд 14The Cure: Know your purpose - your presentation should have a

clear flow and purpose


Слайд 15Your purpose is not what you want to say


Слайд 16Focus on your audience: (1) what do the want to hear?

(2) what do they need to hear? (3) what is entertaining

Слайд 17What is your one key takeaway point? Prepare you call to

action!

Слайд 18Audiences really want you to craft a clear message that has

a flow and purpose. - Dave Paradi, ThinkOutsideTheSlide.com


Слайд 19If you can’t clearly state what you want to accomplish, you

are not ready. Postpone or cancel

Слайд 20Once you know your purpose and key points, start planning in

analog

Слайд 21Turn off the computer. Don’t plan in PowerPoint


Слайд 22Working in analog helps keep you focused and on point


Слайд 23Why are audiences bored? Because they don’t understand the message and

feel they are wasting their time. - Dave Paradi, ThinkOutsideTheSlide.com

or recommendations

Слайд 38Think of you slides as a series of billboards

the room

Слайд 41Save the wordy details for your spoken delivery

this,” just turn off the projector. - Dave Paradi, ThinkOutsideTheSlide.com
