  Life After PowerPoint! — Authority: 111
  I work with a lot of technical teams as they’re preparing oral proposals for large contracts. The contracts may be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Scores of people may be engaged in the process for weeks or months on end. And the presentations may involve hundreds of slides. Somewhere along the way someone ...

  tellingpeople — Authority: 106
  I’m travelling a lot at the moment and, as company policy (and it’s my company so I’d better stick to it) it’s by train. What to do with the hours? Well I could sleep or blog or… instead I’m reading.  Jurgen Wolff’s “Marketing for Entrepteneurs”.Why? Because it was the best option at WHSmiths at the ...

  Executive Speech Coach Presentations Training - NJ NY Manhattan — Authority: 106
  First of all, don’t overdo it.  If it’s dry, it’s dry.  I heard someone link his call to action to survival, which was a bit of an overstatement.  Modesty in all things! Nevertheless, since I often find myself urging clients to include emotional arguments as well as fact-based , here are a few tips. ...

  tellingpeople — Authority: 106
  It’s been a long while since I’ve blogged (sorry!) because I’ve been training people every day and I’ve not had the chance to write anything (or the energy for that matter). Thanks to my sexy new iPhone however, I’ve been able to read stuff while on busses, trains and waiting in queues so I’ve [...]

• What’s the Big Idea?

  
  Life After PowerPoint! — Authority: 111
  Every successful speech and presentation drives home one — and only one — big idea. A big idea organizes, ties together, and makes sense of many smaller ideas. Great speeches advance one big idea. At Gettysburg Lincoln spoke of the birth, death, and rebirth of liberty. At the outbreak of WWII in his first ...

  Life After PowerPoint! — Authority: 111
  There’s an article worth reading on The Chronicle of Higher Education’s web site. It’s titled “When Computers Leave Classrooms, So Does Boredom.” It isn’t a rant against the use of PowerPoint in teaching, but it does try to get teachers away from an over-reliance on it. The article extensively cites ...

  Making slides for a presentation is often a long and tedious process. It might take you hours just to get the content in place and editing / re-editing slides might extend it even longer. But in reality you never have enough time. Your boss wants a presentation by tomorrow morning and he might tell you today evening. ...

• When to breathe…

  
  tellingpeople — Authority: 106
  I know it’s not quite technically correct all the time, but one of the ways children are taught about where to put commas into sentences is to think about where they’d breathe if they were saying it out loud. It doesn’t work all the time but it’s a pretty handy rule of thumb.It also [...]
