Sell your message beyond PowerPoint

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

For the past decade, PowerPoint has played a key role in many presentations. Yet this tool has been overused, misused and abused – particularly in a small group setting. Slide Deck is a new presentation tool that increases listener’s involvement and buy-in and improves the exchange of knowledge. It uses the PowerPoint application for design, but the visuals are presented without any electronic equipment.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:

  • People who must present in small group settings
  • Salespeople who meet with customers
  • Staff who deliver briefings to senior management

PARTICIPANTS WILL LEARN:

  • How to improve the “selling” of information and products
  • Why and when Slide Deck is more effective than PowerPoint
  • How to reduce preparation time
  • How to design an effective Slide Deck presentation
