How NOT to Prepare a Presentation
February 2nd, 2010 | Add a Comment
This what most people do to prepare presentations:
- Switch on their computer
- Open up PowerPoint
- Search out other presentations given recently
- Start making changes to PowerPoint slides
- Print out the first batch of slides
- Scribble all over them
- Re-edit these slides
- Keep on at the slides until late at night
- Work at it over the weekend
- Give it to a colleague to look at
- Incorporate those comments
- Work until late at night again
- Rehearse in the taxi on the way to the meeting
- Start with “Hello, my name is John Smith and I am here today to talk about…..”
This process is akin to making a movie by going out with a camera hoping to find interesting things to film.
It is why so many presentations are deathly boring.
