Fight for Yourself: How to Sell Your Ideas and Crush PresentationsDigital Surgeons
Don't let your blood, sweat, and pixels be overlooked, great creative doesn't sell itself.
Every presentation is a story, an opportunity to sell not just your work, but what people actually buy — YOU.
This presentation will walk viewers through three core aspects of winning at any presentation, Confidence, Comprehension, and Conviction.
These concepts, central to your work as a creative professional, are backed by science and bolstered by thoughts from some of the world’s leading creative professionals.
Inspired Storytelling: Engaging People & Moving Them To ActionKelsey Ruger
Most projects, presentations or initiatives are driven by facts and features the team believes will help them deliver a product or message. While facts and data are important for setting the stage and communicating goals, they’re rarely what persuades an audience or gets them to take action.
In this workshop, you will learn how to use that connection, by teaching basic skills in visual thinking and storytelling that will that transform projects and initiate action.
Pitching Ideas: How to sell your ideas to othersJeroen van Geel
Learn how to convince others of your UX ideas by understanding them.
We are good in designing usable and engaging products and services. We understand the user's needs and have a toolkit with dozens of deliverables. But for some reason it remains difficult to sell an idea or concept to team members, managers or clients. After this session that problem will be solved!
Selling your ideas and convincing others is one of the most undervalued assets in our field. This ranges from convincing a colleague to use a certain design pattern to selling research to your boss and convincing a client to go for your concept. You can come up with the best ideas in the world, but if it is presented in the wrong way these ideas will die a lonely dead. This is sad, because everybody can learn how to bring a message across. The main thing is that you know what to pay attention to.
In this session I will take you on a journey through the world of presenting ideas. We will move through the heads of clients and your colleagues, learn what their thoughts and needs are. We will move to the core of your idea and into the world of psychology.
We held the largest ever Virtual SlideShare Summit a week back, if you missed it here's your chance to hear from the experts once more on some of the takeaways on presentation design and SlideShare Marketing

According to Juliet (Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet), a name should mean nothing, but for a startup, it’s a completely different story. Choosing a name for your startup can be one of the most important decisions you make in the beginning, and for a good reason: it is the most impactful choices you’ll take. That’s why it is pretty common, that startups before getting product-market fit change their names a couple times. Unfortunately, not every startup gets enough time and they realize too late that they chose a lame name. But what is in a name?
Here are 13 alternative ways to design and display content in presentations versus using bullet points. This will work in PowerPoint and other presentation authoring tools.
The Great State of Design with CSS Grid Layout and FriendsStacy Kvernmo
For far too long we've been forced to reuse layout patterns that have worked in the past, creating a web full of sites that all look the same. Narrow timelines, browser support restrictions and lack of a true grid system have led us to create work that is "good enough".
I've spent years exploring how we can make the web a more unique space. With some of the newer CSS techniques available, we can start to make more creative designs. CSS Grid Layout is on the horizon and will play a major role in the design of our sites. Finally having a true, 2 dimensional grid will give our layouts much more flexibility and it is on us to explore the possibilities.
This talk was presented at CSS Day 2016.

Screw You Bullet Points! [Rest in Peace]Ayman Sadiq
Even when you are preparing a slide and filling it with bullet-points, you know you are being a lazy-ass. Because, let’s face it, there’s just so much more that you could use in lieu of a ton of bullet points (I mean literally ‘a ton’, they’re all over the place!). Half of the audience won’t even be listening to what you have got to say and will simply read the points (completely ignoring your words in the process). If you don’t want your audience to tune out of your presentation and label you as ‘BORING’, play around a bit with cool info-graphics, icons and illustrations and make them go: ‘Whoa!’

10 Powerful Tips for an Effective Brainstorming24Slides
If I were to ask you what brainstorming is, how would you describe it?
Perhaps it’s better to see what it is NOT first by looking at common myths about it:
Myth #1: Brainstorming is just a free flowing building of ideas.
Myth #2: The goal of brainstorming is simply to come up with a solution to a problem.
So what is it then?
Fact #1: Brainstorming is not just free form; it requires structure, planning and an active participation of each member in a fruitful dialogue.
Fact #2: The goal of brainstorming is not just to solve a problem; it’s to expand each other’s ideas and explore possibilities.

Business Storytelling by Cynthia Hartwig of Two PensCynthia Hartwig
Anyone familiar with the Bible and Aesop’s fables already knows that stories are the oldest persuasive tool since the dawn of time. And now everybody from the The Wall Street Journal to LinkedIn is saying that storytelling will be the number one business skill needed in the next five years. That’s why you should run, don’t walk, to see the hands-on business storytelling workshop with Cynthia Hartwig, fiction writer and co-founder of Two Pens.
Over the course of her career in advertising and social media, Cynthia Hartwig has honed the act of telling stories into a fun and practical art. She’ll lead you in a series of practice-makes-perfect exercises that will help you to persuade, excite, sell and sway people to your point of view.
You’ll see how stories can be used in all kinds of business settings to communicate and connect with employees, customers, colleagues, partners, suppliers, and the media.
You’ll learn the mechanics of telling a story with a beginning that hooks you, to a middle that builds tension, to a satisfying end.
You’ll learn how to weave rich information (even numbers) with personal insights and emotional power and then experience the thrill of having an audience remember what you’ve said. Many writing exercises are included to help you tap into the mind’s unique hard-wiring that can create a story out of almost any experience.

One of the most difficult challenges of public speaking is creating a presentation that best represents your topic. You can spend hours upon hours attempting to craft something that will impact and entertain your audience.
That's why we wrote the SlideShare Handbook- to help you learn how to write, design, and market powerful content.
It's become common for us to share with our clients and fans various pieces of advice that applies to all presenters and presentations. With that in mind, here are the 10 most useful public speaking tips we've learned through the years, better known as our "commandments."
A call to action (CTA) is a driving force - an argument - that motivates change and action. CTAs can be found in almost everything we see or do:
"Sign up now!"
"Follow us on Twitter!"
"Buy one get one free."
The reason for this is that a CTA promotes people to act and do something. When used in presentations, a CTA can be very effective or supremely underwhelming. You should understand your CTA before you start developing your presentation, but developing the CTA itself is already quite a process.
So, in this SlideShare, we share with you the importance of a CTA, how to craft one, and how to deliver it in a way that helps the audience understand your message and act on it.
Did you know PowerPoint isn't the only presentation software out there?
