The Science of Presentations
The document provides tips and guidance for improving presentation skills. It emphasizes preparing thoroughly by starting offline and focusing on curiosity before content. When designing presentations, it recommends keeping things simple with one point per slide, high quality visuals over text, and dumping templates. For delivery, it stresses practicing extensively, presenting from notes not slides, using presenter view, and asking for feedback. The overall goal is to treat audiences like kings by planning strategically and designing and delivering presentations that are visual, coherent and engage attention.
