How to Present like a Pro
Shiv

Break the rules
Avoid using Microsoft Standard Templates

Do It Yourself
Learn to design your own template

Master your slides
Play around with the slide master

Best Pick
Choose a color palette and font of your choice and use the same all through out the presentation

A picture is worth a thousand words
Reduce the text on your slides

Numbers don’t lie
Represent your stats effectively with charts

Your Power Point is an Automated Tool
Never try to do things manually

Think like a designer
Visualize your thoughts and build on it

Make it simple
Do not over populate your slides with effects

Connect Internally
For it is they, who decide the success of your show

Create Curiosity
In fact, a book is judged by its cover

Master the art of story telling
People tend to sleep during presentations

Make it crisp
Spend not more than 3 minutes in a slide

Rehearse
Practice well before the real show
