The morning agenda includes a quiz, a lesson on presenting as a team, and tips on creating multimedia visuals. The afternoon consists of formal team presentations and feedback. Key lessons taught are norms for respectful participation, the importance of preparation and rehearsal when presenting as a cohesive team, and using presentation software and the 10-20-30 rule to engage the audience.

- why presentations are so important to our careers and professional lives,
- the principles of planning, preparing and writing a great presentation,
- Learning how to conquer any nerves you might have about speaking in public,
- the basics of creating a new presentation in Microsoft Powerpoint

A presentation I put together for my junior planners to help establish the fundamentals of creative brief writing. Far from exhaustive and purely dealing with foundational principles, but a solid starting point.
I was asked to speak at the IPA Strategy Group's Modern Briefing event this morning. These are my thoughts on why participation is so important-it fundamentally disrupts business models-and how we can get better at briefing for participation:
-A business problem is a behavioural change in disguise
-Think about network insights, not consumer insights
-Move from "the single thing we want to say" to "the single thing we're going to make or do"

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.

fonts that are easy to read.
• Use vibrant, consistent design.
• Use noises to emphasize a point
or complement your message.
• Use meaningful graphs and
charts
• Use slides as notes – the
audience came to hear you, not
an email you could’ve sent.
• Don’t use every font, picture,
and special effect available

or to fill time (i.e. Anchorman)
