Is this a familiar feeling? You\’re sitting in a presentation that you\’re really interested in but you can feel your eyes getting heavy, your breathing\’s slowing down, you\’re trying not to yawn and your limbs feel immobilised.

The presenter has written every word on each slide and then reads it to us (like we can\’t read), the presenter is so unpracticed they talk to the screen not the audience, trying to fit too many slides into a presentation then running out of time – I hardly need to say more, we have all been in meetings like that.

Sadly you\’re struggling against a common affliction known to us as – Death by PowerPoint.

What can you do to overcome \’Death by Powerpoint\’?

So, when it comes to your turn to deliver an effective presentation do you find yourself falling into the same traps or do you really try to do something that will make people remember your presentation for all the right reasons? A presentation that is interactive, engaging and persuasive which inspires and motivates your audience?

Your message is fascinating, vital, business critical even and you are an interesting, charming person yourself but because it\’s so normal to use PowerPoint in business meetings and events and the company has a standard template you find you\’re conforming and helping to share \’Death by PowerPoint\’.

We want to make \’Death by PowerPoint\’ a thing of the past. There were no slides at the Norman Conquest or the Battle of Waterloo and yet people still managed to impart the essential knowledge.

Really crucial information was communicated long before PowerPoint was invented, so we can all deliver information without rendering people unconscious and inflicting \’Death by PowerPoint\’. We want you to help in the battle to fight this mass affliction.

This is really important
