I create…

a product you see from a story you don’t except for when I present


That’s a lot for one document

Presentations are part of implementing your solution

what tends to happen


Craft for that moment after your present

For Content For Messaging For Visuals


Saving Grace: Pattern recognition

The Obvious

•Professionality

•Ownership

•Documentation


A Good Story…

•Hooks you

•Takes you along for the ride

•Has an arch to it


Table Of Contents

You know. But the audience sees it on its own.

Create Patterned Content:

Rename to be action items of the slide itself

Create consistencyStructural Consistency is in built -- use it!


Explaining yourself

•The Facts

•The Endorsements

•The Logic


Break it up.We “read” in chunks. Create visual boxes of content.


A picture is worth 1000 words... right?

... But it needs a message to have words to start


Add Images

RelevantFits in the spot Has Markers


The punchline.

This isn’t all that convincing.

Is this enough?You Should Care!You Should Care!


Connect the dots.

Contact me to get involved!

-x- will change the situation THIS is why we need to act

-y- will magnify the impact


Template Workaround


Do it in stages.

Change font sizes Change text box colours Add graphic box elements


So, the moral of the story is...

‣ Add more slides

‣ Make some text smaller

‣ Go take new photographs

‣ Repeat things

‣ Clearly emphasize what we’re to DO


Thanks, guys!

In particular, thank you to:The Noun Project, for the use of icons under the CC act in particular, the hand shake by Jake NelsenZe Interwebz, for letting me find and use images free under CC
