Are you writing effective PowerPoint presentations? If everything you plan to say is already written on each slide, you give up your power to the PowerPoint. As a result, you become nothing more than a disembodied voice reading to a quickly bored and, now, unimpressed audience. And that audience is reading ahead faster than you can speak!
Make the PowerPoint reflect just your talking points, not your entire speech. Edit your content into key words/phrases, delete non-essential text and focus each slide on a single thought. Where possible, restrict yourself to:
- 3 to 6 points per slide
- 6 to 10 words per point
- 1 line per point
- 36 to 40 words per slide
- 1 slide for every 1.5 to 2 minutes of presentation
With the right content and presentation style, you take back the Power to make your Point.
