PowerPoint tip 1

PowerPoint tip 1.

Start with the end in mind
Before you even open up PowerPoint, sit down
and really think about the day of your presentation.
What is the real purpose of your talk? Why is it that
you were ask to speak? What does the audience
expect? In your opinion, what are the most important
parts of your topic for the audience to take away
from your, say, 50-minute presentation? Remember,
even if you’ve been asked to share information, rarely is the mere transfer of
information a satisfactory objective from the point of view of the audience. After all,
the audience could always just read your book (or article, handout, etc.) if information
transfer were the only purpose of the meeting, seminar, or formal presentation.
