About this Book

Slide presentations, often called PowerPoint presentations, have a bad reputation accumulated by countless mediocre presentations. The fact behind this sad state of affairs is that a vast majority of professional lecturers and other speakers have never come to terms with slide presentations based on software like PowerPoint and Keynote. In classrooms, at seminars, at conferences, and at business meetings they deliver slide presentations that bear all the hallmarks of poor design thinking. Working with a slide presentation has three parts: planning, design, and delivery. PowerNotes covers all three parts.
