    Al Gore’s slide show was really great and inspired people because it was so visual. I don’t understand why you don’t like it. It was designed by Nancy Duarte who often does work with Garr Reynolds of Presentation Zen.

    All four of the books you mentioned are a MUST!

    Hi,
    I am looking forward to your postings either in video form of you presenting a training session, or an audio slidecast that would fill in the content behind the slides.
    I reckon it’s never too late to learn, although I must admit all my PowerPoints are done for either educative or fun loving entertainment.

    Then I mistook your point about Mr. Al Gore. I thought that his presentation was a flop. Thanks for your explanation. I am waiting for your second slide. It is truly a remarkable presentation. Thanks a lot for your efforts. I am sure you will be due rewarded.

    Thanks everyone for your nice comments. I’m glad the slides have been useful to people. I’m hoping to post either a video of me presenting this training session, or an audio slidecast that would fill in the content behind the slides.

    To answer weilong76 - I don’t think anything is wrong with Al Gore. I actually included him as an example of the shift in thinking about presentations in the entertainment and business worlds. Gore’s documentary/presentation 'An Inconvenient Truth' was hugely successful, due to excellent visual design (by Duarte Design in Silicon Valley) and his strong delivery. Gore ended up winning an Academy Award and a Nobel Prize for his work.

    What’s wrong with Al Gore? Right brain sure will rule the world.

Notes on slide 1

Presentation Slide Design for the Non-designer: The New Rules of Presentations Overview I’m Christina Henderson. Training session is titled “Presentation Slide Design for the Non-designer: The New Rules of Presentations” I’ve spent the last four years as a marketing consultant and four years before that as a secondary English teacher. Now here I am a grad student in training and development. Whether you’re in the business world, or the education world you’ve probably noticed PowerPoint presentations are everywhere. What this session is about Presentation software (PowerPoint) is one of the few tools that requires professionals to think visually. But unlike verbal skills, effective visual presentation is not easy, natural or actively taught in schools or business training programs. This training session will teach you the new rules of presentations that are changing the way smart businesspeople and educators use PowerPoint. Objective Our objective today is for you to learn and be able to apply three new rules of presentations, creating slides that tap into visual, right-brained design skills in order to create more engaging, memorable presentations. Importance This training session will help your career. By learning the new rules of presentations you can become a more effective trainer, set yourself apart from the crowd, leading to greater demand for your services, getting paid more for what you do, and exercising greater influence in your workplace. You will not automatically become a brilliant designer, but your work will look more professional, organized, unified, and interesting. And you will feel empowered. How the training will unfold First, I have some questions to find out what you already know about using Powerpoint. Then I’m going to give you some background on how Powerpoint has traditionally been used, and the shift in thinking that has occurred in recent years. I will present three new rules of presentations, including examples and some tools and resources you can use to further your knowledge. Please ask questions along the way if you have them.
