Keen to wean yourself off-over reliance on slides when #presenting?

Here's a simple tip:

If your first step when preparing a slide presentation is to open up Powerpoint...

STOP IT!

Prepare your slides as LATE in the preparation process as possible.

That way, you'll get clear on the overall flow / story / audience journey FIRST.

If you get too bogged down in slide development too early, you'll end up being taken hostage by them.

And that's not nice - for you or your audience.

 Simon's masterclass on pitching and effective communication attracted over 60 MBA's and other post-graduate students from across Oxford during the exam period ... testament to how valuable people thought it was. I would recommend it to anyone, especially mid-career professionals, looking to enhance their ability to communicate their ideas with conviction.
