Speak slowly and enunciate clearly.
Then, plan the appearance.
Tables are a useful way to organize and present large amounts of information, for example:
Tables:
1) TOO MUCH INFO
2) NOT ENOUGH VISUALS
3) LOW QUALITY
4) VISUAL NOISE
5) LACK OF PREPARATION (a 1 hour outstanding presentation can take 30 hours of prep)
1) KEEP IT RELEVANT.
Less slides, more interaction. Turn data in something meaningful to the audience.
2) USE STRONG VISUALS. www.istockphoto.com
Design and use photos for the average joe.
3) USE GREAT DESIGN. Buy it or study a great design.

4) USE WHITESPACE
Be mindful, use spacing and alignment tidy.
Use colors, images and alignment consistently to give a cohesive look.
USE a collection of photos that belong together in one slide.
5) CRAFT THE PERFECT STORY. Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse.
HAVE A SYSTEM for collecting ideas. Rework them into a masterpiece.
Communicating with clarity directly impacts engagement and career.
STORY TELLING
is the key to making great presentations.
