To Power Point or NOT to Power Point

“I know you can’t read this, but…”

Who hasn’t sat through a poorly constructed, boring presentation with endless slides of data, too small to even read from your seat in the audience?

Unfortunately, this misuse of PowerPoint as a communication tool has given it a bad reputation in the workplace.

And while it’s true that PowerPoint can certainly be a major curse of presentations today, it can also be a major asset. When used appropriately, this tool can enhance a presentation and truly engage the audience, improving your ability to persuade and influence others.

As a leader, whether you want to or not, there will be times when you will be a presenter. And without the ability to effectively present and communicate, you will have great difficulty making things happen.

In this revealing training audio presentation, speaking coach and trainer Jeanette Henderson draws on 30 years of presentation coaching experience to help you create memorable and effective presentations, starting with harnessing the power of PowerPoint.

By focusing on using PowerPoint as it was intended (a tool to ENHANCE presentations), you’ll learn how to incorporate visuals into your presentations to support and strengthen them, not to define them.

You’ll learn:

• How to “think outside the slide” when you’re crafting your presentation
• Tips for building powerful visuals and crafting your slides, including the importance of white space
• When to use lists or bullet points and how to incorporate them into your presentation without sounding like a robot
• The top PowerPoint pitfalls and how you can avoid them
• Strategies for rehearsing and practicing your presentation, ensuring an excited and engaged audience
