Good presentation. Some remarks :
1. I like the narration in the left corner; those who only read the presentation (without voice-over) can get more grip on the key message
2. Presentations start energetic but you lost me as soon as the Art pictures come in.
3. Slide 15; would bring in more contrast
4. Slide 19; I would play more with the different time dimensions vs the size of the boxes; This slide contains much information and it does not give instance insight.

The 'narration' in the left corner is a good idea. It an effective way to add information without cluttering the visual.
However, this is appropriate for ONLINE viewing. I wouldn't recommend it in front of an audience.
I suggest that you put a slide in the beginning, inviting people the visualize the presentation in ’full screen’ to see the narration.
Thanks for sharing this great presentation.

I like the 16:9 format
Works really well and considering that the standard notebook screens are panoramic, I would expect this format to become much more common.
Power of a small font
Lead text in small font in the corner is a great idea. Smaller font in shorter lines is easier to read, doesn’t sscream at you, yet stands out. (must preview in full screeen though)
High energy from the very beginning
The first 9 slides have a real punch ( it’s hard to keep up the momentum though)
Nice cover
i really like the cover, and appretiate how hard it is to come up with a new perspective on the topic. Does it work for the CEOs and executives? Are they your audience?
Great slide on JS background
That page is design thinking at its best. I also applaud the image credits throughout.
What would i do differently
Trouble with unusual fonts
Slideshare doesn’t handle your fonts very well. They appear fuzzy, rather then crisp. Could pdf be an answer?
The art theme doesn’t do it for me
the art theme seems to break the professional, unified look. As if the visual pun took over the content. Warmed up by a great intro, I was ready for more substance. ( I would love to see more pages designed like the background page on JS)
Opportunity to sell problem solving skills?
Too much emphasis in presentation design is given to ballroom shows. In my experience, the real challenge often comes in the conference room discussions, while presenting to 5-10 people. I feel this theme was underrepresented, considering your great background and experience.
More case studies
Before and after case studies would be excellent.
I really enjoyed the presentation, inspiring as ever, Thanks, Tomas 2 years ago Reply
I think this is a fantastic slideshare presentation. Things I particularly like:
- the 'narration' in the top left corner - makes it clear it's separate from the visual design. I can imagine how the slides would work live.
- the clever way you've integrated the paintings giving me a smile.
Tiny, tiny bits of feedback:
- Slide 11 doesn't quite do it for me. it doesn't carry on the paintings theme, it uses the planet image (which is starting to become a bit of a cliche) and I don't understand what you mean by 'risk-free'.
- In slide 20 you use the pipe image - but you haven't used it earlier in your presentation - and I imagine you meant all of the images you used in this slide to be call-backs to earlier slides.
These are fine-tuning points Jan, fantastic presentation,
