AttentionMax: Mission-Critical Presentation Advice: Dump Powerpoint

  • jenslapinski · 1 year ago
    I agree that a bad presenter is a bad presenter no matter what.

    Let's not forget that humans are visual animals. "A picture says more than a 1,000 words" comes to mind.

    I think a PowerPoint has got the purpose to VISUALIZE what the speaker is talking about. It can be extremely useful when used well.

    For me that means that there should be as few words on a PowerPoint as possible. Use graphs, tables, pictures, etc to get the point across. Speak the words yourself.
