This PowerPoint deck is part of a collection. Each deck in this collection models a different communication style. Some models focus on visual display, others strictly on organizing information. This collection is inspired by Exercises In Style, the classic book by Raymond Queneau. In Exercise In Style, Queneau retells the same very simple story 99 times in 99 different styles. This deck uses the “Inspire” style. This style should never be distributed on paper. The PowerPoint visuals are designed to make the oral presentation more compelling and memorable. Key principles of this style include: Trigger empathy to evoke passion Create a burning platform, but don’t dwell on it Describe the glorious future Make it clear that we can attain the glorious future Use compelling images, especially of human faces Give the audience an assignment
