What Makes a Great Presentation?
I’m working with our education manager on revamping our webinars to turn them into great presentations. To do this, we are going to have to coach our presenters on how to create great presentations. We’re going to have to create a good template for them to use with all the varieties of slides they will need (i.e., title, transition, quote, etc). We’re going to have create an asset library of quality images that are unified by a certain style. In the end, we’ll have to still produce slides, because our presenters are not experts in design. But we want to streamline the process as best we can, to minimize the investment of staff time.
As the book Slide:ology by Duarte states, you’ve got to create presentation, not documents or teleprompters. The teleprompter slide is even worse for webinars, because the attendee’s attention is literally split between listening to and reading the same information, and the brain doesn’t like that.
This is a great slideshare presentation:
