5. Sound familiar?
“PowerPoint hell” is the tedium some
people report on sitting through
PowerPoint visual presentations that
are too long and complex, making
excessive use of the software’s
features and when the presenter just
reads from the slides. Source: Wikipedia

16. Wrong Font and
Too much Text
“The majority of the presentations that I see have text in a ten point font. As much text
as possible is jammed into the slide, and then the presenter reads it. However, as soon
as the audience figures out that you’re reading the text, it reads ahead of you because it
can read faster than you can speak. The result is that you and the audience are out of
synch.
The reason people use a small font is twofold: first, that they don’t know their material
well enough; second, they think that more text is more convincing. Total bozosity.
Force yourself to use no font smaller than thirty points. I guarantee it will make your
presentations better because it requires you to find the most salient points and to know
how to explain them well. If “thirty points,” is too dogmatic, the I offer you an
algorithm: find out the age of the oldest person in your audience and divide it by two.
That’s your optimal font size.” - Guy Kawasaki

People aren’t interested in
what you do, they’re
interested in why you do it.

21. TELLING the STORY:
Act I begins a story by setting up all of the key story
elements, including the setting, the main character, a
conflict, and the desired outcome.
Act II drives the story forward by picking up on the
conflict in Act I and developing it through the actions and
reactions of the main character in response to changing
conditions.
Act III ends the story by framing a climax and a decision
that the main character must face to resolve the
situation.
